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.

Charity
Hi! I am an experienced and dependable caregiver with nearly four years as a YMCA camp counselor, including before- and after-school care, which I currently continue. I also have extensive hands-on experience caring for my six younger siblings ranging from 8 months to 18 years old currently, including a nonverbal autistic brother. Additionally, I have taught Spanish to 3rd graders through a Purdue program. I am patient, attentive, and prioritize safety, communication, and creating a supportive environment for every child. I am CPR and first aid certified!
