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.

Dalilah
Hi! My name is Dalilah, and I am a 21-year-old assistant preschool teacher with over 10 years of experience caring for and working with children. Helping little ones learn, grow, and discover the world around them is something I truly love. I believe every child deserves to feel safe, valued, and encouraged to be themselves, and I strive to create a classroom where they can build confidence, make friends, and have fun while learning. I enjoy creating engaging, hands-on activities that inspire curiosity, creativity, and a love for learning. Building trusting relationships with children and their families is one of the most rewarding parts of my job, and I am committed to providing a nurturing, supportive environment where every child can thrive. It is a privilege to be part of each child's early learning journey, and I look forward to making a positive difference in their lives every day.

Caitlyn
Hi! My name is Caitlyn, and I’m a caring, patient, and reliable childcare educator who recently moved to Chicago. I have completed my Certificate III and Diploma in Early Childhood Education and Care in Australia, along with hands-on experience in a Montessori environment. I enjoy helping children learn, explore, and develop their independence in a safe and nurturing environment. I’m responsible, organised, and passionate about providing children with the care and attention they deserve. I look forward to meeting a family I can support and build a trusting relationship with! : )

Hayden
Hi! My name is Hayden Wilson, I am 25 years old and currently living in Edgewater. I moved to Chicago from St. Louis about 2 years ago. Since my move, I have worked for a nanny company. I worked with children from 6 months to 12 years, ranging from in-home care to events with up to 40 children! I love planning crafts and activities, and most of all seeing what children can make when given different materials and creative tools. While living in St. Louis I worked at The Little Gym as a children’s gymnastics instructor (ages 3-8) and at Kindercare as an assistant teacher (ages 2-5). I love reading, singing, and exploring the world with the kids in my care, and getting out into nature when we can!

Asia
Hi! My name is Asia, and I’m an experienced and dependable babysitter who genuinely enjoys working with children. While attending college in Atlanta, I gained experience caring for children with different personalities, ages, and needs, including children who are nonverbal. I’m patient, attentive, and always make sure children feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while in my care. Now that I’m back in Chicago, I’m looking to connect with local families who need part-time or one-time babysitting. Whether you need care for a few hours, a date night, an event, or occasional help throughout the week, I’m happy to help. I’m responsible, caring, and committed to creating a safe, fun, and positive environment for every child I care for.
