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.

I have hands-on childcare experience caring for coworkers’ children on weekends and during travel, ensuring a safe, structured, and nurturing environment. I also coached children ages 5–8 in basketball for Crofton focusing on teamwork, skill development, and positive encouragement. I've been a PTA mom for several years. My experiences have strengthened my patience, communication, and ability to manage multiple children while keeping them engaged and supported.

I am resigning from my position as director in a couple of weeks but would love to continue working with children on a part-time basis.

Jessica
Hi, I'm Jess! I have over 10 years of experience supporting children and families through home visiting, case management, and child development programs. My experience spans infancy through high school-aged youth, giving me a strong understanding of children's developmental needs at every stage. I currently work in maternal and child health as a supervisor supporting families with young children. I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids and believe every child deserves to feel safe, valued, heard, and encouraged to be themselves. Whether we're playing, learning, exploring their interests, or simply following their routine, I strive to create a warm, nurturing environment where children can thrive and parents can feel confident that their little ones are in caring, capable hands. I am trauma-informed, dependable, patient, and committed to building positive, meaningful connections with every family I work with. I understand that parenting takes a village, and I am happy to provide support when families need an extra set of hands. Whether you're looking for occasional evening care, a weekend date night, coverage during appointments or errands, or simply time to recharge, I aim to provide reliable, compassionate care that gives parents peace of mind while ensuring children feel comfortable, supported, and cared for.

Hi! My name is Jordan, and I am an incoming college student and athlete. I enjoy working with children and creating a fun, safe, and positive environment for them. Most of my experience comes from babysitting younger cousins and children of family friends, where I helped with meals, playtime, bedtime routines, and keeping kids entertained while making sure they are safe and cared for. I am responsible, patient, and dependable, and I take pride in being someone families can trust. I am available everyday at anytime except for Wednesdays, on Wednesdays until about 4 PM and would love the opportunity to help care for your family.
