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 a passion for education and working with children and have an extensive background in the field. I have worked in schools, summer camps, Parks and Recreation departments, and for private families as a nanny and babysitter. I have experience in organizing activities and schedules, educational and creative playtime, preparing meals, and homework completion and tutoring, all while creating a fun, engaging, warm, and supportive environment where I seek to bring out the best in each child. I currently work a corporate job Monday-Friday, but am available nights and weekends. I am a high energy individual who is highly patient, organized, and flexible. I look forward to supporting your childcare needs.

Savannah
I have a strong background in childcare that combines hands-on experience with my academic studies. I am currently a junior at Grand Canyon University, majoring in Elementary Education and Special Education, which has given me a solid understanding of child development, classroom management, and supporting diverse learners. I am originally from Washington State and have been babysitting for five years, caring for children ranging from 4 months to 10 years old. Through this, I’ve gained experience with infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. I have also tutored students in grades 1–3, helping them with reading, writing, and math skills. In addition, I’ve volunteered at various elementary schools and autism programs, which has strengthened my ability to work with children of all needs and learning styles. These experiences have prepared me to provide safe, patient, and engaging care for every child I work with.
