Meet Amanda

Founder & CEO, Sitting Made Simple®

We’ve been serving the surrounding areas in Ohio for 15+ years now. It’s clear the Northern Ohio area is in need of access to safe, local and reliable childcare. We are proud to extend our service area to the Cleveland & Akron areas!

Aimee Sallee is the Operations Manager and also my sister. As a mom of four boys, she knows how important it is to have access to safe, local and reliable childcare. She also knows how important Sitting Made Simple® is to all of us.
