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.

Sharon
Hello! I'm Sharon – a compassionate, dependable, and experienced childcare professional with over five years of hands-on experience working with children of all ages. I’ve served as a teacher assistant in a licensed private school, providing quality care and support for children ages two and up, including kindergarteners. For the past three years, I’ve also worked as a professional nanny, caring for children from as young as three months to thirteen years old. My experience spans infants, toddlers, and school-aged children in both classroom and in-home settings. I have a strong background in supporting children with special needs, including those with allergies, autism spectrum disorder, and various health conditions. I am CPR and First Aid certified, and I’m currently pursuing a dual master’s degree in Social Work and Public Health, after earning my bachelor’s degree in Christian Counseling. I bring an energetic, nurturing approach to childcare, and I love creating a fun, safe, and enriching environment that encourages learning and creativity. I use positive reinforcement techniques to support children’s emotional and behavioral growth and strive to build trusting relationships with families. My responsibilities have included school pick-up and drop-off, light housekeeping, household support, and preparing nutritious meals for children and families. Families I’ve worked with often describe me as reliable, thoughtful, and deeply caring. The most rewarding part of my work is watching children grow, learn, and thrive—knowing I’ve contributed to their development while providing parents with peace of mind. I look forward to meeting you and your family!
