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.

Teresa
Hi, I’m Teresa. I have a lot of experience caring for children — I raised two of my own and have helped other families with childcare. I enjoy creating a warm, safe space for kids to play and learn. I’m very patient and love helping children build confidence and good habits.

Ashley
I am a business owner, artist, and mom of a 12 year old girl. I have experience as a full-time, live-in nanny for ages 3-14 and in teaching Art to 3rd grade classes. I’m available for babysitting, help with homework, and light cooking.

Kayla
Hi there! My name is Kayla! Many of my kiddos I've cared for refer to me as "LaLa". I love being a child caregiver so much for so many reasons -- too many to list here. But I'll say my favorite reason is the joy kids bring to my life. I have been a professional child caregiver for almost two years. Before creating a career centered on kids, I worked with children in daycare, church, and other volunteer and paid settings. I am CPR certified and go to great lengths to assure your child is safe while in my care. It's important that, as a caregiver, I bring children equal amounts of comfort and enrichment. I am more than happy to answer any questions you may have, so feel free to reach out to me! I look forward to coming alongside your family to help care for those who matter most!

Mikki
Hello! My name is Mikki, and I am a reliable, energetic, and highly experienced sitter looking to support local families with weekend childcare. With a background that spans several decades—from consistent babysitting throughout my teenage and college years to raising my own now-grown son—I bring a wealth of practical knowledge and a calm, steady presence to every home I enter. I truly understand the importance of finding someone you can trust implicitly with your children’s safety and well-being. I pride myself on being much more than just a supervisor; I love engaging with children through creative play, reading, and outdoor activities. My goal is always to ensure that your little ones feel secure and entertained while following the specific routines and rules you have established for your household. Whether you need a few hours for a date night or a full day of assistance on a Saturday or Sunday, I am dedicated to providing high-quality care that gives parents total peace of mind. I look forward to meeting your family and becoming a helpful part of your weekend routine!
