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.

Helen
I have been working with children for many years, even as a little girl I would help out in church groups looking after the little ones. Throughout my teen years I would do work through the YMCA with young kids and now I'm currently at work with a daycare! Looking for a change of pace but have always had a dedication for children! I'm huge on communication and emotional regulation and empathy with children, their little bodies are experiencing such new emotions, I feel it's crucial they can learn to regulate them, so that they can be successful with whatever comes their way. I love the outdoors and have a passion for the arts which I love to incorporate into my childcare as well!
