SitterTree has been a wonderful resource for our school. Using the app, I can post jobs, pay and review, and chat with providers who are scheduled for upcoming jobs. When I have a teacher call out last-minute, I can rely on SitterTree. It really could not be a simpler process.

I own a preschool and I cannot say enough about how much we love SitterTree. We consistently find wonderful educators to fill our needs. The customer service is prompt, kind, and quick to solve any issue. 10/10 would recommend this app for any substitute educator needs.

Salira
Hi! My name is Salira, and I’m a 21-year-old college student at Morgan State University with a passion for working with kids. I’m First Aid and CPR certified, and I’m currently working toward my Behavioral Technician certification to strengthen my skills in child development and care. I have open availability and bring a patient, caring, and responsible attitude to every family I work with. Whether it’s helping with homework, preparing meals, keeping playtime fun and safe, or maintaining routines, I always aim to create a positive, comfortable environment for both kids and parents.

I love being a sitter because I enjoy helping children learn, grow, and feel cared for in a safe and positive environment. I’ve always valued building meaningful connections, and working with kids allows me to bring patience, creativity, and empathy into each day. I love creating calm, structured environments where kids can feel safe and have fun! I have professional experience supporting individuals with different needs through my work as a Direct Support Professional, which required a lot of patience, communication, and responsibility — skills that translate very well into childcare. Outside of that, I’ve helped care for younger relatives and family friends’ children, handling routines like meals, playtime, and bedtime. I’m comfortable creating engaging, age-appropriate activities and maintaining a safe, nurturing environment. I’m trained in providing direct care and support, including de-escalation, active listening, maintaining safety, and medication administration . I’m also very organized and attentive, which helps with routines like meals, homework, and bedtime. My experience as a DSP helped me build strong communication skills and the ability to stay calm under pressure. I also have my CPR and First Aid certification.

As a dedicated college student balancing two jobs working in security and as a one-on-one instructor. lI’ve learned the value of discipline, patience, and compassion.While my current roles have taught me responsibility and the importance of serving others, I’m especially passionate about working with children. My goal is to transition into a full-time career that allows me to nurture, teach, and inspire young minds while continuing to grow spiritually and give back to those around me.

Holly
Hi, my name is Holly, and I have experience working with children in both camp and educational settings. I enjoy creating safe, engaging, and supportive environments where children can learn, play, and grow. Most recently, I worked as an Assistant Preschool Counselor at Noah’s Ark Summer Camp at the Jewish Community Center in Owings Mills, MD. In that role, I provided active supervision to ensure children’s safety at all times by maintaining ratio and keeping children in sight and sound. I supported both indoor and outdoor activities, including swim and water play, and worked with children individually and in small groups. I focused on supporting children’s physical, emotional, social, and intellectual development through daily activities. I also assisted with documenting children’s learning and play through photos and communication with families, and I communicated any concerns to lead staff and directors when needed. I also worked as a Facilitator and Teacher with the Teaching Collective at SUNY Albany, where I co-facilitated an Introduction to Feminism course. I helped design and deliver interactive lesson plans, supported student learning through grading and feedback, and contributed to an inclusive classroom environment that encouraged participation and critical thinking. Earlier, I served as a Junior Counselor at St. Paul’s School Summer Camp, where I supported daily camp operations including attendance, meals, and activity transitions. I assisted with sports, arts, STEM, and group activities, and helped ensure a smooth and structured camp day for children ages 4 to 12. I also trained as a Counselor in Training, which gave me early experience supporting children in a camp setting. In addition, I volunteered with the Boys and Girls Club of the Capital Area, where I assisted with youth activities, crafts, and event support. Overall, I bring hands-on childcare experience, strong communication skills, and a genuine passion for supporting children’s growth in safe, fun, and structured environments.
