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.

I have several years of experience working with children in both professional and personal settings. I worked as a security guard in a school and family shelter, where I helped maintain a safe, supportive environment and built positive relationships with kids. I also spent a summer as a camp counselor, supervising children, leading activities, and encouraging teamwork while ensuring their safety. In addition, I have babysitting experience with family and friends, where I provided attentive care, kept children engaged, and supported their daily routines. I am patient, reliable, and truly enjoy creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for children.

Jennifer
Hello My name is Jennifer Rose. Since the age of 11 I have always loved working with kids. I started out at champions club in Astoria helping kids with homework. I became a nanny at the age of 16 with 6 month old rose. I was with her 10 hours a day and loved helping her navigate the world and learn as her mommy was working hard to provide them a great life. I’ve always loved helping families balance their time and care for their most precious joy.

Angela
Hi there 👋🏻 My name is Angela and I grew an affinity for taking care of children after my nephew was born. He is now approaching 3 years old (time flew by). Spending time with him sparked a genuine love for caring for children, helping them learn, and creating a safe, fun environment where they can thrive. That experience inspired me to join SitterTree, where I can extend the same warmth, attention, and reliability to other families.

Maimuna
I have developed strong caregiving skills through years of hands-on experience caring for children in both my family and my community. As a mom, I understand the patience, responsibility, and attentiveness children need to feel safe and supported. I also helped raise my younger siblings, where I learned how to manage routines, prepare meals, assist with homework, and create a positive environment. In addition, I regularly babysat for neighbors, caring for children of different ages and personalities. These experiences have made me dependable, nurturing, and attentive to children’s needs. I prioritize safety, communication, and fun, always working to create a warm, supportive space where kids can learn and grow.

Solanje
Hello my name is Solanje🫶🏽 and I'm a mother of a 2-year-old little girl who's going to be 3 years old in October, so I know what's it's like to be responsible, patient, loving, and caring. I have a huge family with lots of kids/babies who I'm always the person that babysits because I love kids. I have 2 little sisters and 2 older siblings a boy and a girl. Before I became a mother I was always babysitting my boy cousins for 2 years since they were babies until they were toddlers. I would also would watch my niece when my big sister would go out or if she needed help. I watched my niece since she was a new born baby till now she's currently 5 years old. My older brother recently had a baby boy in April, my baby nephew turned 4 months August 6th. I also watched my adorable nephew occasionally since he was born till now. I truly enjoy watching babies they are too adorable and precious. I would change diapers, following sleep schedule and soothing them to sleep, take walks out while the baby are in the stroller to get fresh air, make their milk and feed it to them, wash the bottles, bathing, feeding baby food when the babies reached 6 months, tummy time, read books, sing songs, and lots of play time. Some activities I do with children would be going the park to play🪁, bubbles🫧 ,dance parties🎉,hopscotch,make slime,stacking blocks, teaching sign language, pretend play with dolls and cars,story time, sensory bins, soccer⚽️, puzzles 🧩, puppet shows,arts and crafts, painting 🎨, scavenger hunt games, baking cupcakes and involving the children to help🧁, creating an obstacle course, playing board games, bike riding🚲, balloon volleyball and plan creative activities that keep your child engaged and smiling. l'd love to be that extra pair of hands to help prepare meals, snacks, homework help, bed time routine, school pick up and drop offs, play time, help with the dishes, and tidy up a little so your day feel a little smoother and calmer. I'm confident in my ability to handle all aspects for children with care with gentleness and patience. I believe in guiding children gently, encouraging them to think through situations, and modeling kindness and respect in every interaction. I maintained a safe, structured, and stimulating environment for daily routines such as cognitive and emotional development through play-based activities. I communicated regularly with parents sending pictures giving updates on how the baby was doing. I'm confident, loving, and very reliable, I will treat your kids like I treat mine with love and patience and I'm lots a fun. I love to cook, especially baking sweets from scratch on special occasions for my daughter since I personally like to know what's in the food I make for her. I always try to add something nutritious in her food and sweets like mini pumpkin pies I made last thanksgiving for her I didn't use sugar I used organic maple syrup to add sweetness and she loved it.If you have pets that's great because I have a puppy and her name is Snow she a Bichon. I attend at Hostos College. My major is licensed practical nurse and my passion is working with kids. I’m open to being a long term babysitter/nanny or just an occasional babysitter. I'll be happy to do an interview. My schedule is flexible! Feel free to reach out😊
