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.

I have more than five years of experience working with children of different ages. I love spending time with them, helping them grow, and creating a safe, caring, and fun environment. I enjoy teaching through play, reading stories, and doing creative activities that support learning and social skills. I am responsible, patient, and very organized. Working with children makes me happy and gives me purpose every day. I always try to communicate with parents clearly and respectfully. My goal is to make every child feel valued, loved, and confident in everything they do.

Amari
Hello, my name is Amari watts, I am a responsible, caring, and dependable babysitter with extensive childcare experience. Growing up with six younger siblings has given me years of hands-on responsibility, including feeding, supervising, helping with homework, and managing daily routines. This experience taught me patience, strong communication skills, and the ability to care for children of different ages at the same time. In addition to caring for my siblings, I have previous childcare experience that strengthened my ability to create a safe, fun, and supportive environment. I genuinely enjoy working with children and am committed to ensuring their safety, comfort, and overall well-being.

Chloe
Hi, I'm Chloe! I’m a second-year student at University of Virginia originally from the Richmond, Virginia area, and I’ve spent the past two years babysitting for families with children ages 4 and up. I love working with kids and creating a fun, positive environment through outdoor activities, arts and crafts, reading, and creative play. In addition to babysitting, I’ve volunteered as a tutor throughout high school and college, working with children of many different ages and learning styles. For the past two summers, I served as a camp counselor at Collegiate School Summer Quest, where I led camps for students from the lower school through middle school. I’m patient, empathetic, dependable, and energetic, and I truly enjoy helping kids feel comfortable, engaged, and supported.
