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.

Kellie
As a dedicated and nurturing childcare provider, I bring over a decade of experience supporting children from infancy through high school. My passion for early childhood development and education has guided my work as a nanny, educator, and autism specialist. I hold a Bachelor of Arts (2009), a Bachelor of Science (2016), and I’m currently completing my Birth–Kindergarten Teacher Certification at East Carolina University. I am also a certified Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) Technician, allowing me to provide skilled, individualized care to children with special needs, including autism. I create safe, engaging, and structured environments where children can grow, explore, and thrive. Whether I'm supporting milestones for infants, creating enriching activities for toddlers, or helping school-age children with routines and homework, I bring a warm and professional approach to every family I serve. I am CPR/First Aid trained, reliable, flexible with scheduling, and committed to open communication with parents to ensure consistency and trust.

I’m great at keeping kids engaged, helping with activities, and creating a fun but safe environment while following family routines. I’m newer to formal babysitting, but I’ve spent a lot of time around children, taking care of younger siblings and feel very comfortable taking responsibility and communicating clearly with parents. I’m dependable, calm, and always show up with a positive attitude. I’m mainly available evenings and weekends, and would love the opportunity to support your family.
