Just started - Recensione dipendente - Substitute Teacher presso Upkid

Very flexible, you make your entire schedule, good pay, good communication with company, the system is very easy to manage

You can only work if there are jobs available, there is usually only an option for 8 hour shifts, some of the daycares are very short staffed

No experience necessary, you just have to pass the background check

They lie about what they will reimburse for. You have to pay about $75 up front for all the background check and fingerprinting. They claim it’s all reimbursable in their documentation, but when you send in the receipts they tell you “we actually don’t reimburse for fingerprinting” even though it clearly says they do. Plus it takes at least 2-3 weeks for all that to “clear”. It’s also nearly impossible to get shifts. There are only a few a day, if that, and when you’re new and have no rating yet no one will hire you. The best part is, the 50 bucks that is technically reimbursable can ONLY be reimbursed after you’ve worked a shift! What a fun catch 22 to be stuck in. Oh and most shifts pay 15 an hour, not the 19-21 that is advertised.
