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.

Izzy
Hi, my name is Izzy Gagliardi! I am currently a senior at Belmont Abbey College, where I play on the women’s soccer team, and I am majoring in Political Science. I am returning to Columbus, OH my hometown after my last semester at school! Currently, I am back in Columbus for December all the way until mid January and I am looking for a job. I am a fun and outgoing babysitter that loves to play with the kids inside or outside, or watch a movie and relax! In my past, I worked as a swim instructor for young children at Aqua-Tots and have babysat since I was 15! I am currently 21 years old and have a lot of experience with young children, as I was recently a summer youth soccer coach for 3-10 yr olds:)

Helen
I’ve been working with kids on and off for the past three years in a bunch of different roles: camp counselor, teaching assistant, and daycare worker. I’ve worked with both neurodivergent and neurotypical children, and I always do my best to make sure every kid feels safe, included, and has fun. I love playing games, doing creative activities, and just being silly when it’s time to be! I’m always ready to jump into whatever makes them smile—whether it’s a game, a craft, or an adventure in the backyard. *I am CPR certified

Kaitlyn
With over 30 years of experience working with children, I have devoted the early stages of my career to nurturing young minds. I began my journey babysitting the neighbor kiddos around the age of 10. I nannied for a family for 10+ years and was a teacher at The Goddard School, where I developed a passion for fostering creativity and learning in the classroom. Additionally, my experience as a nanny has enriched my understanding of child development and family dynamics. As a parent of three wonderful children myself, I bring both professional expertise and personal insight into the joys and challenges of raising children. I am committed to creating supportive and engaging environments for kids to thrive. I am certified in Adult and Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED

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! ☺️

Carie
I am a full-time substitute teacher for PLSD for the last few years kindergarten through 12th grade, including disability. Classes seemed to like me because I do get lots of callbacks right away. I also do tutoring on the side. I have also worked for 10 years in Church nurseries starting at 1 year old. I have raised three kids one with a disability. Four years I was also a lifeguard so I have CPR and first aid knowledge. When it is nice out, I like to be outside. I am big on animals and I am also a dog sitter/walker. I’m a very on-time and scheduled person so if I say I’m gonna be at your house, I will be there ready to go!

My name is Bridget, and I have five siblings. As the oldest, I’ve basically been taking care of them my whole life. Even though I have parents, being the oldest means I’ve always had to step up and take on big sister responsibilities.
