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 Syd, and I’m excited to resume my babysitting journey! I’m a caring, responsible, and patient person who loves spending time with children and helping them feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I understand how important it is for parents to find someone they can trust, and I want to be that person for your family. I enjoy creating fun activities, playing games, helping with homework, and making sure children are well cared for. I’m dependable, attentive, and always willing to go the extra mile to make sure your little ones have a great experience. Whether you need occasional date-night babysitting, help after school, or regular childcare, I would love the opportunity to become someone your family can count on! I look forward to meeting you and your family!
