My experience

I can’t say enough good things about Tandem. As a substitute daycare teacher, finding steady and flexible work used to be a real challenge—but this app has truly changed the game for me. From the very beginning, the setup process was simple and straightforward. Once you're in, you can immediately start browsing and picking up available shifts that match your availability.

Tandem—keep up the great work! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

5⭐️

I’ve genuinely had a really positive experience with Tandem. I’ve worked 26 shifts through the app, and it has given me opportunities that I may not have had otherwise. What I appreciate most is having the flexibility to choose shifts that work with my schedule while still being able to gain valuable experience and meet new people.

Tandem has made finding and picking up work feel much easier and more accessible. I also appreciate being able to see available opportunities in one place instead of having to constantly search for work on my own. Every shift has been a chance to learn something new, build my experience, and grow professionally.

After 26 shifts, I can honestly say that Tandem has been a valuable part of my work experience. I’m grateful for the opportunities the platform has provided me and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for flexible work and a convenient way to connect with job opportunities.

Great for extra pay

It is easy to use. You see your pay and hours. You can try different centers out. Sometimes you get weekends.

Child care jobs

Being a full-time college student and being home for the summer, I was honestly really confused about whether I wanted to commit to a full-time job or not. Tandem came in handy because it gave me the flexibility to work around my schedule and choose hours that work best for me. I love the convenience of not having to commit to a traditional full-time job while still being able to get the hours and pay that I need. It’s honestly been the perfect balance for me this summer! ❤️
