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.

Analiese
Hi! I’m Analiese Poe, a sophomore pre-medicine student studying Health Science at Spelman College. I am a Certified Clinical Medical Assistant with experience in pediatric care. I have several years of babysitting experience from my hometown (Clarksville/Fort Campbell, TN), along with experience tutoring children both in person and virtually. I have also served in children’s church programs, where I supported age-appropriate activities, supervision, and engagement in structured group settings. Additionally, I volunteer with Blue Star Families, supporting reading literacy family nights and organizing community events for children. As the daughter of a single mother who relied on babysitters while working full-time, I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely caring with your child. I strive to be that support for other families. I love connecting with children through fun, interactive, and educational activities, and I value supporting their growth through every developmental stage. I am dependable, patient, and safety-focused, and I would love the opportunity to care for your little ones!

Astrid
Hello, My name is Astrid Alejandra Arias-Barrera, I am a photographer and mixed media artist, and I have always had a strong, natural connection with children. From a young age, I helped care for younger kids in my family and developed a very nurturing, motherly personality. I had to step away from work for a period of time, but I am now ready and excited to return to working with families and children. For the past four years, I have provided childcare on and off for family members, roommates, and friends. Through these experiences, I have learned how to be patient, responsible, and attentive to each child’s individual needs. I am dependable, a quick learner, and very open-minded. I am also happy to help with cooking, cleaning and any other household tasks as needed. I am truly grateful for any opportunity to support a family and provide safe, loving care for their children.

Hi! My name is Madelyn, and I’ve been taking care of kids since I was 12. I grew up babysitting my little sister, and soon her friends. I’ve babysat many newborns from family friends and relatives. In high school I was a swim instructor for kids ages 6 months through 14 years old primarily. Currently, I’m a college student taking a semester off, and working part time as a STEM Instructor. I’ve been with my company for two years now, and love it. I teach elementary aged kids about STEM and engineering using lego materials. My classes contain up to 16 kids, and as few as 7. I can do anything from casual babysitting, to structured (yet fun) educational sessions with activities. I look forward to working with you!
