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.

Hi parents , and child care settings , I am a parent to two beautiful toddler girls. I’m mostly a stay at home mom but I do work two to three times a month at MUSC Shawn Jenkins Children’s Hospital as an PCT with Cancer patients and I babysit for one family in my home. I am looking to do date night babysitting at your home a few weekend days a month for one or a few different families or work in a child care setting . I can also babysit in my home if you need to run errands or something during the day . I love kids and babies. I could babysit your children on weekend days my husband isnt on call and he can be home with our children. I am a safe, fun and loving person and know what it’s like to worry about who watches your children. I have been babysitting for years and would love to meet you and provide safe childcare while you enjoy a night out. Send me a message if you’re interested. I am also CPR certified every two years and know what to do in an emergency situation if need be. I have many references. Thank you so much and I can’t wait to meet y’all . Amanda Brooks . Btw, on the education information it only asks what kind of a teacher you are and not any other position , but I had to put something but I’m not a certified teacher. I am a patient care tech and a hair stylist and babysitter though. 😃

I have experience caring for young children through babysitting and volunteering in Seacoast Church’s KidCoast program, where I help look after one- and two‑year‑olds. I’m also a certified lifeguard, which means I’m trained in CPR and safety. I genuinely love spending time with kids—playing, listening to music, and being a small, positive part of their world as they grow. Supporting families and creating a safe, fun environment is something I truly enjoy.

Tonya
Hi! My name is Tonya, homeschool mom of six, grandmom of five, so far. I have a passion for working with children of all ages. I have several years of hands-on experience caring for kids through homeschooling groups, church activities, and babysitting for family and friends. I’m patient, dependable, and love creating fun, safe, and engaging environments where kids can learn and play. Whether it’s helping with homework, organizing creative activities, or simply making sure your child feels comfortable and cared for, I take that responsibility seriously. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your children, and I strive to be someone both parents and kids feel confident and happy with. I currently am a group leader of the 3-4 yr olds at a faith based homeschool group that meets weekly and I have previous experience working at a church nursery.

Evelyn
Hi! I’m Evelyn, and caring for kids has basically been part of my life forever. I grew up with 8 siblings, so I’ve been helping with little ones from around 8 months old all the way up to 11 years. My dad owned a dance company, and I loved assisting with the kids’ dance classes—keeping them moving, laughing, and learning. I also spent 2 years working in my church daycare and now I watch children on the weekends. I’m energetic, patient, and great at keeping kids entertained while making sure they feel safe and cared for.”

Olivia
Hello, my name is Olivia. I was born and raised in the Charleston area, and I am currently a college student studying anesthesiology for PEDS. I bring with me a unique blend of medical knowledge and a deep passion for taking care of children. For the past two years, I had the opportunity to work in the emergency room, where I gained invaluable experience in handling diverse and high-pressure situations. After my time in the ER, I found my calling in working with children, which led me to substitute teaching, breaking into daycare environments, and nannying for families of all ages and backgrounds. My desire to nurture and support young minds has flourished through these experiences. I am excited to offer a safe, caring, and engaging environment for your children, utilizing my background and skills to ensure they are well taken care of while also encouraging their growth and development. Thank you for considering me!

I am a mother of a beautiful 13 year-old little girl. I have taught children's church. I have fostered children for six years so I understand the challenges that many kids face. Watching a child's innocence and growth through experience and learning is the biggest satisfaction that anyone will ever be blessed to observe.
