We have used SitterTree several times, and have loved our sitters each time. I love the communication I’ve had with the sitters on the platform and love that I can read sitter reviews. Highly recommend!

We have found SitterTree to be a great way to connect with quality child care. The platform is easy to use and the process of booking a sitter is pretty seamless. The sitters we’ve booked have all been professional, trustworthy, and liked by our children. Overall a great experience!

As a 20-something aspiring caregiver, I'm excited to provide a nurturing environment for children of all ages, from toddlers to teens. While I don't have professional experience yet, I'm a responsible, patient, and friendly individual who loves engaging kids through creative activities like drawing, reading, crafting, and music. I'm also happy to assist with homework and chores around the house. Although I don't have a car or driving license, I'm available to babysit in your home. I'm currently in college and look forward to applying my passion for childcare to support your family.

Alexis
My name is Alexis, and I am interested in becoming your nanny. I am currently a preschool teacher looking for a more one on one approach. I was a nanny for 9 years before becoming a preschool teacher with a class of 16. I have been a preschool teacher for 2 years. I love teaching through play and motivating children to accomplish hard things. I always tell children they are growing their big beautiful brains when they are learning new things. I have worked with ages 6 weeks - 10 years old.

Jenna
Hi! I have nanny experience caring for children ages 1 and 4, and I’m comfortable with toddlers and preschool-age kids. I help with daily routines like meals, naps, and bedtime, along with light meal prep and keeping play areas tidy. I enjoy outdoor and nature play, arts and crafts, reading, and imaginative play, and I prefer to keep screen time minimal. I’m patient, attentive, organized, and good with keeping a consistent routine.

Nallely
Hi there! I'm Nallely. I've spent the last 5 years working with kids (especially ages 7 and up) and another 4 years as a paraprofessional for students with special needs. I'm creative, energetic, and great at building positive connections with children — especially those who need a little extra patience and understanding. Whether it's homework help, structured routines, or fun daily activities, I'm here to make your child feel supported and your life easier.

Adilene
Hello! I’ve worked with children professionally as a teachers assistant for 3-4 years and love every second of it. My favorite activities to do are arts and crafts along with music since I strongly believe kids learn best through play and should be able to express themselves creatively.
