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.

Kariah
I have extensive experience working with children, beginning in my early years assisting in my grandmother’s daycare, where I developed a strong foundation in childcare. I later advanced my experience at KinderCare Learning Centers, serving as both an infant teacher and a floater, which allowed me to support children across various age groups and developmental stages. I am deeply passionate about nurturing children’s growth and creating a safe, positive environment where they can thrive. I pay close attention to each child’s individual needs and behavioral patterns, enabling me to quickly recognize and respond to any changes. My attentiveness, compassion, and commitment to child well-being ensure that every child under my care feels supported, secure, and valued.
