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.

Hi, I’m Camryn! I’m 26 years old and absolutely love working with kids! I’ve been in the childcare world for over 10 years — I started babysitting at 15 and have spent the last 5 years working full-time in a daycare setting. Caring for children is more than just a job to me — it’s my passion. I love watching kids learn, grow, and discover the world around them. Whether it’s playtime, storytime, or helping with routines, I aim to create a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where children feel happy and supported. I’m experienced with all age groups, reliable, patient, and always ready with a game, a snack, or a story. 💛 Looking forward to meeting you and your little ones!

Terita
I have worked for 12 years with all age groups from 12 weeks to 12 years. I love helping children learn using fun activities, keeping busy with cool crafts, and am always tailoring each experience to the childs individual needs. My goal is to build/maintain self-confidence in children, teach respect and accountability, and create a lasting relationship with you and your family.

Gladys

Audrey
I love being a sitter because I enjoy helping children learn, grow, and feel cared for in a safe and positive environment. I’ve always valued building meaningful connections, and working with kids allows me to bring patience, creativity, and empathy into each day. I love creating calm, structured environments where kids can feel safe and have fun! I have professional experience supporting individuals with different needs through my work as a Direct Support Professional, which required a lot of patience, communication, and responsibility — skills that translate very well into childcare. Outside of that, I’ve helped care for younger relatives and family friends’ children, handling routines like meals, playtime, and bedtime. I’m comfortable creating engaging, age-appropriate activities and maintaining a safe, nurturing environment. I’m trained in providing direct care and support, including de-escalation, active listening, maintaining safety, and medication administration . I’m also very organized and attentive, which helps with routines like meals, homework, and bedtime. My experience as a DSP helped me build strong communication skills and the ability to stay calm under pressure. I also have my CPR and First Aid certification.

Susan
I am a mother of two "grown" children (ages 19 and 22) who has worked in the field of education for over 20 years. For 17 years, I taught at the elementary level and I now work part-time as a 2-year-old teacher at a private preschool. Since my children are grown and my husband is busy with work, I am looking for part-time work during the summer months. I will be available during the days from June 22 - August 15. Starting mid August, I will have evening and weekend availability only. I have a clean driving record, clean background check, and I am first aid and CPR certified. I enjoy singing, dancing, arts and crafts. My family has a cat and a Labrador retriever, so I am quite comfortable with pets. Non-smoker and am only comfortable in non-smoking households. I am a Northern Virginia native and know my way around the area fairly well.

Oluwadamilola (Dami)
Hello, my name is Dami. I am a 24 years old college student who is also a mom to a 2year old boy. I am the oldest of four, having two sisters close in age, and the youngest being my 6year old brother. I have always taken care of kids, whether my little siblings, Sunday school kids in church, church summer programs kids, and now my son. I also have experience taking care of kids with disabilities such as Down syndrome and autism. I love taking care of kids, and I would say they always gravitate towards me as well.

Emily
A bit about me: I am a 26 year old mom of 3 (2 bonus babies that are 8 & 11, and my bio baby who is 3) and I’m childcare provider and early childhood educator of over 7 years. I currently work as a Special Education self containment teacher for Baltimore City Public Schools. Prior to my time in formal classroom settings, I was a nanny for 2 families doing a nanny share with 4 kids. The girls were 18 months when I began and both moms in the families had babies during my time, so by the end of my time with them they were about 3 and 9 months. My day to day with them included meal preparation and serving, changing diapers, taking them to play in nearby parks and on walks, providing educational and developmentally appropriate activities and crafts, as well as helping assist in potty training and general social and emotional development. I am in the process of trying to leave the public school system, as I find myself wanting to be able to show up more presently in my home life as well as develop my personal passions in my spare time. I currently have to work multiple jobs to support my family and would love to return to a job that not only is fulfilling for my passion as a childcare provider while allowing me time and energy to develop my own family and hobbies. I’d love to set up a time to do an interview! Let me know if you’d be interested.
