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.

Kayley
I’ve been caring for children in a family setting for nearly a decade, starting with my younger brother, who’s six school years below me. Since I was 11/12, I’ve helped with everything from after-school pickups and homework to meals, playdates, and walking our two family dogs—often supervising his friends as well. While I haven’t babysat professionally until now, I’ve spent years being the reliable, calm presence trusted to keep things running smoothly when adults weren’t home. I recently graduated from the University of Texas at Austin, and I grew up in a close-knit, education-focused family in New York City. I bring a thoughtful, responsible, and warm approach to caregiving, and I genuinely enjoy creating a safe, supportive space where kids feel comfortable being themselves.

Alejandra
Hi, Alejandra here! I began working with kids when I was 15 at my local church. From there, I have gained experience with various ages, though I am most accustomed to toddlers, preschool and school-age kids. I have been babysitting for over one year now. I love working with kids as it reminds me of the importance of fearlessness, creativity, and having fun...something we tend to forget as we age!

Hello, my name is Andy (they/them). I've worked in child care for four years and I have experience with children of all ages and abilities. I like to do crafts with kids, I don't mind helping out with chores, and I'm good with pets. I love working with kiddos and would be happy to sit for you! Job experience: I was the Activity Leader at the Northwest Recreation Center for two years, and an Activity Specialist a year before that. At Northwest, I facilitated youth programs for children ages 5-17. This included summer camp, after school, art programs, acting as an inclusion counselor, and planning field trips! I've also worked for many families with neurodivergent children and children with physical disabilities. I was briefly a Youth Advocate for teens in CPS care and then became a Youth Care Worker at Grace Place which also contracted through CPS. I now work as a Human Service Technician at CPS where I support caseworkers and their clients. As far as babysitting, I've worked at Babysitting Connection for the past 4 years for families and local churches in Austin and it's surrounding areas. Fun facts about me: Born and raised in Austin and I love music! I competed in a WGI percussion group for two years and I I love concerts. I also adore animals.
