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.

Kylee
Hi! I’m Kylee and I am a third year student at The Ohio State University studying Environmental Science with a minor in Education. I have over 4 years of experience working in a kindergarten classroom as a teaching assistant, where I supported children in both learning and daily routines and helped create a structured, positive environment. I also have experience working with children and families through hands-on education programs, where I helped lead activities and engage kids in meaningful, interactive learning. These experiences have helped me become patient, adaptable, and confident working with a variety of ages and needs. I enjoy arts and crafts, reading, outdoor play, and helping with homework, and I always try to make activities both fun and enriching. I am reliable, organized, and comfortable caring for multiple children at once. I would love the opportunity to support your family! ☺️

I’m comfortable and confident with little ones, including babies as young as one month old.

I’d love the opportunity to help your family feel supported and give your kids a warm, attentive sitter you can depend on!
