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.

Libby
I’m a mom to my 1.5 YO son and expecting my second baby in February. I grew up helping raise my 5 brothers. I have 2 nephews I’m always around. I also spent some time working at a daycare. I’ve loved every kid I met and I’m sure I’ll love yours!

Caitlyn
Hello! My name is Caitlyn and I am a student at the University of Pittsburgh, and an experienced babysitter over three years. I’ve worked with children ranging from ages 2-11 and have never had any issue doing so! I’ve also had experience handling anywhere from 2-10 children at a time. I am as well previously certified in CPR and first aide. I am very social and bubbly and have always loved caring for kids.

Jordan
Hi, my name is Jordan and I’m a recent graduate from the University of Pittsburgh with a strong interest in pursuing a career in healthcare. I’ve always had a passion for working with children, which has been a constant throughout my life. In high school, I worked as a tutor, helping younger students succeed academically, and throughout my college summers, I served as a camp counselor for children ages 10 to 12—though I’ve had experience with all age groups. These roles have helped me develop patience, communication skills, and the ability to create a fun and supportive environment for kids of all personalities and needs. Outside of work, I enjoy crocheting, playing tennis, and spending quality time with friends and family. I love bringing a warm, caring, and energetic presence to everything I do. My background and passion for healthcare allow me to approach every situation with empathy and a desire to help, and I’m excited to continue making a positive impact wherever I can—especially in settings that allow me to work with and support children.

Hi! I am a kindergarten teacher looking for side work. I have two children of my own (aged 12 and 19). I’ve been working with children for close to 20 years, have a degree in Early Childhood Development and a variety of certifications. I have all of my clearances to work with children as well as infant and child CPR certification. I have been working at the private school where I’m currently employed for 10 years and am happy to provide references.

Hello! I am a mom of three adult children…and one pup! 🐶 I also have two precious grandsons, 2 yr old & a newborn. I love children. To care for babies and children, is very natural to me. They are a gift!

Iona
Hi! My name is Iona, and I’m 20 years old. I’m currently a third-year pharmacy student at Duquesne University with a flexible schedule for the summer. I’m from Mt. Lebanon and have my own car, so I’m happy to commute if needed. I have experience caring for children of different ages and enjoy creating a safe, positive, and fun environment for them. I’m responsible, patient, dependable, and would love the opportunity to help out your family!

Kate
HI. My name is Kate. I believe it is my job to make the parents comfortable leaving their children with me knowing that they are well cared for and treated as my own. The families I work for become my own. I have extensive experience with infants and toddlers. I have worked with twin girls from the age of 2 1/2 months until they were 18 months old when they went into daycare. I still work for them occasionally. I am currently working with an 18 month old Little girl. I would love the opportunity to talk with you about your childcare needs. I have all my clearances and vaccinations. I am looking forward to hearing from you. Sincerely, Kate

Kaylee
Hi! I’m Kaylee, I’m 21, and working with kids has always been a big part of my life. Ever since I was little, I naturally gravitated toward organizing games and activities (especially at my brother’s birthday parties), and that love for working with kids has only grown from there. I started babysitting and volunteering at churches at 12, spent summers as a camp counselor, and even helped teach Sunday school alongside my mom. Now, I work as a preschool teacher, which I absolutely love. I’m patient, reliable, and really enjoy creating a fun, safe environment where kids can be themselves. I try to keep things relaxed and engaging, whether that’s playing games, helping with routines, or just making sure your child feels comfortable and happy.

I have experience with children from a young age, I have volunteered in schools, and I will obtain my CDA.
