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.

Maria
Hello, my name is Maria and I'm a 60-year-old mother of two adults daughters, grandmother of two soon too be three! Aside from my life experience, I've recently nannied for two families that I adored. The first family was a family of 5 but I was responsible for the 9-year-old daughter. She had multiple disabilities and needed my total care. So I now have experience with g-tubes, caring for sick children, diaper changing, bathing, etc. We had the best time together, I polished her nails, read stories, took her to doctors appointments, attended school functions when her parents couldn't and all around, just made each other laugh. After three years with her I relocated to Tampa where I nannied for a short period with a 8-week-old baby until he was 1-year-old. I watched him grow, learn and develop right in front of me. I also babysat for a few other families one of which had two children 6 weeks and 1 years old. I have experience with two small children at a time and administered medicine.
