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, I’m Abby! I previously served as the Associate Director of Children’s Ministry K–5 at Brentwood UMC and am now pursuing a degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. For over six years, I’ve had the joy of working with children of all ages through ministry and babysitting, and I also have hands-on experience with infants. I’m CPR/First Aid trained and would love the opportunity to care for your little ones in the nursery. My heart is to create a safe, loving environment that gives parents peace of mind and helps kids feel cared for and valued. It would be an honor to serve your church family!

I gained two years of hands-on experience working at a drop-in daycare, Need- A - Break local to my community in Spring Hill, TN ; Where I supported children with diverse abilities and was often called in as a one-on-one aide for students who needed additional support. My experiences helped me develop strong communication, patience, and leadership skills.
