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.

Jala
Hi! My name is Jala, I graduated from Baruch College with a degree in Finance and now working for a bank. I love spending time with animals, find joy in expressing myself through writing, and building new connections with others. I’ve always loved helping take care of kids. As an older sister of five, I’ve had plenty of experience looking after younger children, from keeping them entertained to helping with homework and making sure they’re safe. Creative expression is very important to me, and I enjoy sharing that with kids through fun activities and hands on projects. I’m responsible, patient, and enjoy creating a fun but structured environment where kids feel comfortable. I look forward to supporting families by giving parents peace of mind and making sure their children are happy and cared for.
