SitterTree has been a lifesaver for Peachtree Church. Every week I am met with incredible sitters who are competent, capable and who really enjoy what they are doing.
Knowing that SitterTree works tirelessly to support us as a church has made all the difference. I could not be more thankful to have SitterTree as part of our church team.

Peachtree Church
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.

Kareen
Hi, my name is Kareen Walker. I live in Birmingham, Alabama. I have been taking care of children since college and have had the opportunity to become a preschool, elementary and middle school teacher. I have been blessed to be a mother of a young adult woman who is a child autistic therapist. I believe that children need consistency, emotional support, stable routines and a secure environment having these in place will definitely shape young children into stable and optimistic adults for life.

My last job was taking care of a 2-year-old girl, and her 9-year-old brothers, I took care of them for 2 consecutive years, my tasks were, cooking for them, taking them to their daily activities, soccer and ballet, keeping an eye on their medications, etc. but to be honest, I don't know much English.

Ja’Niyah
Hey families! 👋 I’m Janiyah, and I absolutely love working with kids! I’ve been caring for little ones for a few years now from babies to toddlers and up and it’s truly one of my favorite things to do. I enjoy keeping kids happy, safe, and having fun, whether that’s playing games, reading stories, or getting creative with crafts. I’m responsible, patient, and easygoing, and I always try to make sure kids feel comfortable and cared for. I can’t wait to meet your family and help out whenever you need an extra hand! 💛
