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.

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.

Mariana
Hi! My name is Mariana, and I’m currently a college student. I have a strong passion for working with children and creating a safe, fun, and caring environment for them. I have hands-on childcare experience, including caring for multiple children at once. I’ve helped look after both infants and older kids, so I’m comfortable with tasks like feeding, diaper changes, nap routines, and keeping children engaged in age-appropriate activities. I’ve also had experience teaching and guiding my younger niece when she was little, which helped me develop patience, communication skills, and creativity when working with kids. I enjoy doing activities like reading, playing games, arts and crafts, and helping children learn through fun experiences. My goal is always to make sure children feel safe, happy, and supported while in my care.

I’ve been babysitting for 4 years. I’m CPR and first aid certified! I love helping out new families.

Nicole
Hi! My name is Nicole and I currently work as a Special Education Instructional Aide with elementary-aged students in LBUSD. I have experience supporting children with different learning styles, behavioral needs, and communication needs in both classroom and childcare settings. I enjoy creating a safe, calm, and engaging environment where kids can feel comfortable, supported, and have fun. I’m especially experienced with school-aged children, routines, transitions, emotional regulation support, homework help, and keeping children engaged in positive activities. As a mom myself, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, patient, and dependable to care for your children. I’m looking forward to helping families with babysitting, summer care, occasional care, and structured support as needed. I’m comfortable caring for multiple children and have experience with neurodivergent children, including autism and ADHD support. I am also CPI (Nonviolent Crisis Intervention) trained and experienced using calm, supportive de-escalation strategies when children need extra emotional or behavioral support.

I would describe myself as a responsible, caring, and patient person who truly enjoys working with children. Through my experience as a Childcare Assistant at Boom Squad Academy and as a Vacation Bible School volunteer, I’ve learned how to supervise children of different ages, create fun and educational activities, and maintain a safe, clean environment. I’m dependable, creative, and good at building positive connections with kids, which helps me provide both structure and fun in their daily routine.

Aiyana
I have over 10 years of experience providing childcare for families, friends, and coworkers. During this time, I have cared for children ranging from toddlers to school-aged kids, managing up to four children at a time. I am well-versed in creating a safe and engaging environment, handling meal prep, bedtime routines, and educational activities tailored to different ages. Additionally, I worked at my gym’s daycare center for 3 years, where I cared for multiple children in a structured setting, ensuring their safety and providing enriching activities. My experience has taught me patience, adaptability, and the importance of clear communication with parents.
