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.

Lilyanna
Bringing joy and nurturing care to children is my passion. For the past two years, I've been a dedicated childcare provider for children aged 0-3 and 1-11. I believe in fostering growth through creative activities and fun games, from outdoor sports to engaging puzzles. I'm patient, calm, friendly, and always approachable. I have First Aid Training and CPR Training. I'm happy to help with cooking, light housekeeping, and swimming supervision. Communication with you is key, and I'll always follow your preferred method for updates. I'm comfortable enforcing household rules as you direct. I can care for up to two children. Seeing the world through a child's eyes is a gift, and I look forward to sharing that wonder with your family.

Emmy
Hi! My name is Emmy and for as long as I can remember, helping, caring and supporting kids has been my passion!! I have a strong background in children’s education, completing an internship at a preschool + early learning development center, I serve in the children’s ministry of my church, and I have years of experience with babysitting. I stepped away to focus full time on cosmetology school, and now as a new hairstylist, I want to get back into my dearly missed passion of caring of your kiddos! In my free time, I love to cook, read, okay pickleball and spend time with my fiance and friends.

Kayla
Hi! My name is Kayla, I’m an oldest child out of five so I grew up taking care of my siblings. I have taught theatre classes for kids of all ages; during which, I was requested specifically, to help with young children and children with disabilities. I’m not a huge proponent of screen time, crafts and hands on activities are my favorite when babysitting!
