We have been using SitterTree for several years now and absolutely love it!! With all 4 grandparents living out of state, reliable sitters were a struggle for us. SitterTree allows us to always have dependable care, any time we need it! THANK YOU SitterTree!!!

I lead the special needs ministry for a large church. We rely on weekly help from sitters we book on SitterTree. The app makes it easy to connect with sitters in our area who have experience working with children with disabilities. We now have several Favorites who we book consistently. SitterTree has been a wonderful resource for our ministry.

I have over ten years of hands-on childcare experience caring for children from newborns to age ten, primarily within my family, which is a valued part of my culture. My responsibilities included feeding, bathing, putting children to sleep, reading to them, and engaging them in age-appropriate play and learning activities. I hold a certificate in Early Childhood Education, which has strengthened my understanding of child development and safety. I genuinely enjoy working with children and take pride in creating a warm, nurturing, and structured environment where they feel safe, supported, and encouraged to grow emotionally, socially, and academically.
