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.

Chelsea
Hi! I’m Chelsea, a 24 year old dependable and caring babysitter who genuinely enjoys working with kids. As the oldest of five siblings, I’ve always been the one helping out and making sure everyone is good, so taking care of children comes naturally to me. I’ve also worked in after-school programs, summer camps, and as a substitute teacher, so I’m comfortable with different age groups and busy environments. I’m patient, attentive, and love creating a safe, fun, and positive space for kids to learn and have fun!

As a dedicated college student balancing two jobs working in security and as a one-on-one instructor. lI’ve learned the value of discipline, patience, and compassion.While my current roles have taught me responsibility and the importance of serving others, I’m especially passionate about working with children. My goal is to transition into a full-time career that allows me to nurture, teach, and inspire young minds while continuing to grow spiritually and give back to those around me.
