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.

Michelle
Hi, I am Michelle. I am a parent, grandparent and oldest of 7 children. I started babysitting on the weekends in Junior High. I received my Child Development Certificate from Mission College in CA and have over 45 units of child development education. I taught preschool for 10 years, was a preschool director for 2. I then went on to teach enrichment classes, including art, dance, music, sports and gymnastics. I believe children learn by doing and need to be engaged in fun, interactive play and experiences. I was also part of the Outdoor Classroom project and think it is vital for children to be outside daily for emotional, physical and mental wellness and intellectual growth. I have 4 grandchildren now that I love being able to read to, bake with, sing songs, play outside, explore new places, and we do lot's of puzzles and board games. I also have college units in special needs education and have experience working with both special needs children and adults.

Bringing joy and nurturing growth to children is my passion. For the past three years, I've dedicated myself to providing engaging and reliable care for children of all ages. My goal is to support families by creating a safe and stimulating environment where children can thrive. I have some college experience. I am patient, creative, and friendly, and I enjoy playing outdoor games, board games, and educational activities with children. I am comfortable caring for up to two children. I am also very comfortable enforcing household rules. I communicate with parents using their preferred method. I am trained in First Aid and CPR. I am happy to assist with carpooling, light housekeeping, travel, crafts, and swimming supervision. I hope to bring my enthusiasm for childcare to your family and watch your children blossom.

Trinity
My name is Trinity and I have a year of childcare experience working as a full-time sub at a children's Center that served ages 1yr-5yrs. I spent much time in each classroom as well as prepping meals for all the classrooms throughout the week. I love to introduce children to arts and craft, music and books, as well as encourage their outside play. I would love to make meals, help clean, and help the children with any schoolwork or extracurricular activity. I would be honored to have your trust and care for your children.

Emily
Hello! My name is Emily and I have a bachelor's degree in elementary education. I love working with kids and have spent several years doing in-home babysitting, working as a camp counselor, and coaching students. I love planning engaging activities like outdoor play, crafts, and even academic enrichment or school-related fun! I’m reliable, organized, and can also assist with homework, routines, and light household tasks. I'm excited to get connected with kiddos and provide them (and their families) with a great experience. I have specific rates listed, but I'm always willing to discuss options with each family.

Tiffiah
Hi! My name is Tiffiah, and while I'm new to babysitting, l've always enjoyed being around children and helping out with younger family members or family friends. I am currently in college studying psychology to become a child therapist or psychologist of some sort. I'm responsible, patient, and a quick learner. I take safety seriously, and I'm always happy to play, help with homework, or follow any routine you have in place. I'd love the opportunity to earn your trust and care for your little ones like they're my own siblings.

Abigail
I have been working with children since middle school, starting as a babysitter for families in my neighborhood. Over the years, I gained experience caring for kids of different ages, learning how to keep them safe, entertained, and supported. In high school, I expanded my experience by working at a daycare center, where I helped plan activities, assisted with meals, and maintained a positive, nurturing environment. These experiences taught me patience, responsibility, and strong communication skills. Working with children has not only strengthened my ability to multitask and problem-solve but also deepened my passion for helping others grow and learn.
