Hi, my name is Zephaniah Haynes! I’m 19 years old, have my own reliable transportation. While I’m new to babysitting through this app, I have plenty of hands-on experience caring for friends’ and family members’ children—always receiving positive feedback! I truly enjoy working with kids and making a difference in their lives. I’m respectful of every family’s rules and will always check in before making any decisions. I also love cooking (just let me know about any allergies), playing games, keeping kids entertained, and helping with homework. Plus, I don’t mind tidying up to make things easier for parents. Caring for children is something I’m passionate about, and I look forward to bringing a fun, safe, and supportive environment to every family I work with!

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.
