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.

Olivia
Hi! My name is Olivia, and I’m a 25-year-old caregiver with a genuine passion for kids and helping families thrive. I have several years of experience working with children ages 6 and up, including two years as a personal assistant and caregiver for a private family, where I supported two children ages 10–15. During that time, I helped with school routines, homework, organization, daily activities, and keeping their home environment running smoothly. Beyond that, I’ve babysat for multiple families over the years and have served as a children’s worker and camp counselor at various churches. Those roles have given me the ability to connect quickly with kids, help them feel safe and understood, and create environments that are both fun and structured. I love getting to learn the unique personalities of every child and exploring the world with them—whether that’s doing creative activities, helping with homework, spending time outdoors, or encouraging their interests. My goal is to support families with reliability, kindness, and patience, while helping kids feel valued and confident. I’m responsible, calm under pressure, and naturally organized. I’m also very flexible with scheduling and love working with families who prefer open communication and a positive home environment. I’m excited to come alongside a family who needs dependable help and a warm, encouraging presence for their children.
