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.

Cecilia
I want to nurture the massive imagination of children and develop special moments that become part of great core memories. I started volunteering to tutor Grade level children with the City Year program while in High School. At the same time, I also began volunteering in the Nursery at my local assembly. I have over 15 years experience professionally working as a Summer Day Camp Instructor and After School Arts Instructor/Director. Safety is top priority so I have a training certificate in Fire Safety and have taken classes in CPR. I like to have fun so board games (I think I'm the Candyland Master), coloring sheets (especially with a great box of Crayola crayons) and building blocks are my go-to for a good time.

Erin
Hello! My name is Erin. I am a recent college graduate from Wayne State University in Detroit, MI. I received a bachelor's degree in public health with a minor in community health and nutrition. I have a career background in healthcare and the restaurant service industry. Working in health care has prepared me for emergencies and helps me adhere to safety measures. It has also allowed me to show compassion towards people under my care. My love for people, families, and community gives me the motivation to always put my best foot forward. I have cared for children for over 10 years. I have worked with children of all ages and children who need more tailored care for their disabilities. For the past year, I have volunteered for WSU with P.L.A.N.E, which is a physical literacy and nutrition education program for children on the autism spectrum. I was responsible for teaching them fine motor skills through sports and healthy eating habits. I am very energetic! In my spare time, I enjoy learning new ways to incorporate a healthy lifestyle, going to concerts or streaming music, and spending time with my family and friends.

Hello my name is Charisse but I go by Resse. I recently just turned 30 in November and im currently enrolled at OCC and eventually going for nursing once I finish my pre reqs. I wanted to be a pediatrician growing up but now I want to either be a mother baby nurse when I graduate from my program or a NICU nurse. Growing up ive always loved being around kids and babies . I started babysitting around the age of 12 with my sister then eventually on my own as I got older . I’ve helped raised about 10 or more kids from birth until their current ages from nieces and nephews , to friends kids . I’ve worked at a few daycares and also the school at my mom’s church . So as you can see I have over 18 years of experience. Some of my favorite things to do during my baby sitting and daycare experiences have been teaching them how to cook , dance parties , showing them games I grew up playing and doing arts and crafts .

Jordan
I have seven years of experience working with young children. I believe learning should be joyful, hands-on, and imaginative, so I design activities that blend early literacy, math readiness, and social-emotional skills with arts and crafts, sensory play, and creative projects. My approach focuses on individualized attention, safe routines, and engaging experiences that build confidence, curiosity, and a lifelong love of learning.

Kyla
Hello! My name is Kyla! I am a recent graduate of Schoolcraft College in Northville, Michigan. There I obtained a degree in Culinary Arts as well as a degree in Applied Science. Becoming a Chef has been a life-long goal of mine, inspired by my late-grandmother. I am currently a Junior at Howard University, majoring in Business Management, minoring in Psychology, with a concentration in Hospitality. I am very family oriented, coming from a large family myself. I am the eldest of seven siblings, consisting of four brothers and two sisters. My values are focused around traditions, integrity, and gratitude! I believe that children should start on the shoulder's of those who came before them, rather than everyone starting from the ground up. It is important to me to be a helping, guiding hand as well as an exceptional role model. I am a clear and efficient communicator who prioritizes collaboration and creative thinking while holding space for big emotions, individuality, and growth.
