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.

I am a compassionate and dependable individual who takes great pride in the care and development of children. I believe that every child deserves patience, understanding, and a nurturing environment where they can grow, learn, and feel valued. My approach to childcare is rooted in kindness, responsibility, and attention to detail, ensuring that each child’s unique needs are met with care and respect. I strive to create positive, engaging experiences that support both emotional and developmental growth, while maintaining a safe and structured environment. Being someone families can trust is something I hold in high regard, and I am committed to making a meaningful impact in the lives of the children I care for.

Karen
Hi my name is Karen and I love working with children! I have been working with children for about 20yrs. I have worked in preschools as well as public schools and have always babysat on my own time. I am very experienced with early childhood education for example working with children on ABC’s (recognition and sound) also shapes and colors, problem solving, social and emotional skills. I love to teach through play and make learning fun and exciting. I love to laugh and tell jokes. To me, Children is like a fountain of joy. I can never get enough of their lovely innocent personalities and truthfulness. They are so vulnerable, yet so brave. They are energetic and optimistic. They have hope and the are sincere. They believe the best will happen. They are so authentic and show their emotions without fear. I look forward to meeting new families on the app.

Kristine
My name is Kristine and I just moved to Austin for a new job! Babysitting is something that comes naturally to me because I looked after kids for as long as I can remember. Growing up in Nigeria as the oldest child in my family, I was automatically in charge of taking care of all my cousins, the children of uncles and aunties as well as my own younger siblings. I spent my time in undergrad engaged in after school child care through the Jumpstart AmeriCorp program, while also babysitting and providing childcare at church. While getting my masters, I also took care of three lovely kids and their family dog! They loved when I would travel home to Nigeria for Christmas break and bring them some snacks and souvenirs. I love children. They are a burst of fresh air and curiosity and always keep me in my toes! Looking forward to working with your child (ren) on a win-win situation where they have fun while you get some you time!
