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.

Reina
Hello. I’ve worked at a daycare for about seven months called “A Little Kids Academy”. I’ve always wanted to have my own daycare or babysitting business in the future. I’ve raised and took care of my younger siblings since I were little, so I have years of experience with infants to preteens. I would like to stay in this area of a career and eventually get an Associates degree in child development. I would love to improve my experience and skills by working with the little ones again.

I take safety and responsibility seriously, and I always strive to create a caring environment where kids feel happy and secure.
