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.

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.

Kayleigh
Hi! My name is Kayleigh. I am 19 years old and soon I will be going into college for human services. I am very passionate about being kind and helping others, something I love to do. I love working with children because it is such a rewarding job. Kids are a blessing and such a joy to be around. My experience is through family and my current job. I used to babysit my sisters and I helped my mom with my baby brother while he was a newborn up to present. Right now I work at a daycare as a teacher and I have worked in every age room.

Hi! I am a Teacher Assistant at St. Margaret Mary Catholic school in Omaha Nebraska. I am looking for a seasonal job over the summer for when school is not in session. Please let me know if you would like to get coffee and discuss if I might be a good fit for your family!

Madison
Hi, my name is Madison! I’m 21 years old and just moved to Lincoln this past month. I’ve been caring for children since high school, when I regularly babysat four siblings in first and second grade. That experience taught me how to multitask, stay patient, and keep kids engaged all at once. After high school, I worked as a summer nanny for a preschool-aged boy. I picked him up from summer school, made lunch, played outside, and helped him settle into nap time. I always tried to keep things fun with games and activities he looked forward to. Most recently, I spent several months as a travel nanny for a family in the cutting horse industry. I cared for their three-year-old daughter while traveling across the U.S., often working long hours and keeping her routine consistent in a busy environment. I would describe myself as dependable, energetic, and caring. I love creating a safe and fun space for kids and look forward to supporting your family!

Cristiane Francisca
Hello, my name is Cris, I'm the mother of a young man already in college. I had no registered professional experience in the area but I did a lot of volunteer work with children in my country and I have nephews who I have always taken care of and supported. I was a support network for other moms where I helped with transportation of the children, took them to school and sports activities and often did small events with small groups at home. I am a responsible and respectful woman. I find it easy to follow orders and rules.

With over eight years of experience working with children, I have built my career around creating safe, engaging, and supportive environments where children can learn, grow, and thrive. I began my journey as a Teacher’s Assistant before advancing to the role of Extended Care Director, where I led a comprehensive before-school, after-school, break care, and summer program serving children from preschool through middle school. As Director, I managed the day-to-day operations of the program, including staff hiring, training, scheduling, budgeting, state licensing compliance, family communication, and program planning. I organized field trips, special events, and enrichment activities while fostering positive relationships with children, families, and staff. Throughout my career, I have been committed to creating an environment where children feel welcomed, supported, and excited to learn. My experience has strengthened my leadership, organization, communication, and problem-solving skills while reinforcing my passion for helping children succeed. I take pride in building trusting relationships with families and creating programs that balance fun, structure, and meaningful experiences for every child.
