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.

Rea
Hi I'm Rea ("ray"), I’m 21, and I have been working with kids for 9+ years. I am a natural born leader, very outgoing, and am very much a people and kids person. I have experience with caring for neurodivergent children, primarily autism and ADHD, and those with learning disabilities. I am very good at regulating emotions and difusing panic attacks, tantrums, and intense, irregular behavior. In the past I have provided transportation to/from school or extracurriculars, crafts, and homework help. I also have experience as a family assistant. I am more than happy to cook, clean, and run errands.

Sharita
I am a dedicated and experienced child care professional with over 20 years of hands-on experience working with children of all ages. I began my journey in child care at just 13 years old, which laid the foundation for a lifelong passion for supporting children’s growth and development. I spent 15 years at The Cradle Club, where I proudly worked my way through every role—from aide to Center Director—gaining a deep understanding of early childhood education, family engagement, and program leadership. Currently, I have been with Minneapolis Kids for the past two years as a Family Learning Child Care Provider, where I continue to create nurturing, safe, and engaging environments for children and families. Beyond my professional experience, I am also a mother to two biological daughters, a stepson, a foster daughter, and several bonus children, which further strengthens my ability to care for and connect with children from all walks of life. I am patient, reliable, trustworthy, and a hard worker who leads with heart and purpose. The most rewarding part of working with children is the joy and authenticity they bring each day. I love witnessing their curiosity, celebrating their milestones, and being part of the small moments that light them up. Their laughter, honesty, and resilience constantly remind me to see the world through fresh eyes—and that is what makes this work so meaningful to me.

Heidi
Hi, my name is Heidi and I have worked in early childhood for over 25 years. I have worked in other areas the last couple of years but miss the children.
