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 my name is Rachel though many know me by Kit. I am 21 years old and while I’ve never quite had a job in childcare (yet), I’ve babysat many children while I was growing up. I’ve been involved in helping with church nursery’s during events and some busy moms who were friends of mine. My friends and I would describe myself as very energetic and bubbly, happy to be involved and engaged. I’m good at communication, conflict resolution, and I’d like to eventually pursue a career in childcare!

Kiana
Hi, I'm Kiana Emaratsaz. I first started babysitting family friends as a teen on and off and moved on to volunteer babysitting at fellowships in churches. In 2018 I started babysitting weekly for parents and nurseries ever since. Now I have over 8 years of experience working in childcare and church nursery settings and take each opportunity seriously both for parents and their children. The biggest reward in child care is when kids leave with a big smile on their faces and I earn their parents' trust in working with their children!
