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.

Janiya
Hi, I’m Janiya! I’m a warm, attentive, and reliable nanny who truly enjoys creating meaningful connections with the children I care for. I’m patient, observant, and intentional about making sure each child feels seen, heard, and supported. I focus on building routines that promote emotional growth, confidence, and independence while still making room for fun, imagination, and learning through play. I’m calm under pressure, great with communication, and very mindful of a family’s values and expectations. I take pride in being someone families can rely on, and I approach childcare with both professionalism and heart. Supporting a child’s growth during their early years is something I don’t take lightly, it’s a responsibility I value deeply.
