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 over 10 years of hands-on childcare experience working with children of different ages, from infants to school-age kids. Throughout the years, I have supported families with daily routines, homework help, meal preparation, playtime, and maintaining a safe, nurturing environment. I am patient, responsible, and very attentive to each child’s individual needs. In addition, I have 2 years of experience working as a substitute teacher, which has strengthened my skills in classroom management, lesson support, and engaging children in educational activities. This background helps me create structured, fun, and age-appropriate activities while also ensuring children feel supported and encouraged. I am reliable, caring, and committed to providing high-quality care that helps children learn, grow, and feel safe.
