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.

Hi! My name is Jelisa. I have been a part of my kids church ministry for 3.5 years now. I love being around children and am currently in school to become a pediatric ICU nurse. I enjoy working with children at preschool age but I am open to all age ranges. They all have such an active imagination and I truly believe that there is so much to learn from them.

Catherine
I’m experienced and love working with kids. I loves working with children of all ages and creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment for them to thrive. I recently graduated from the University of South Florida with a degree in Biomedical Sciences and a minor in Children’s Behavioral Healthcare, which has given me a strong understanding of child development and behavior. I’ve volunteered at Camp Boggy Creek, where I worked closely with children facing serious medical conditions, and I’ve also gained valuable experience supporting patients and families while volunteering at Moffitt Cancer Center. I’m patient, dependable, and passionate about helping kids feel comfortable, engaged, and cared for. Whether it’s playing games, helping with homework, or simply being there to listen, I enjoy building positive relationships with the children and families I work with. I also have my own car, which makes transportation safe and convenient.
