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.

Alana
Hello, my name is Alana! I have experience caring for children of different ages, including my time working in an after-school program where I supervised kids in Kindergarten through 5th grade. In addition to that role, I have also gained babysitting experience that involved planning fun and safe activities, preparing meals, helping with homework, and maintaining daily routines. I pride myself on being responsible, patient, and attentive, and I truly enjoy building a positive connection with the children I care for.

Aiyana
Hi! My name is Aiyana Price and I look forward to talking with you! Here is a bit about me: I was an Afterschool teacher at Ants to Elephants Daycare for 2 years where I, created and executed a schedule that included help with homework, team games, and activities to enhance learning. I built and maintained a positive and encouraging environment for children to promote inclusivity among all children. I also served as an After-school teacher for ages 5-12 and took care of ages 3 months to 3 years old. I demonstrated the ability to adapt and flex to varied situations, and learned how to manage children experiencing behavioral issues while managing other children. I was also a Substitute Teacher at ChildCare Careers where I, served as a substitute teacher for a variety of schools and age groups (newborns to 10 years old) for 275 + students. I demonstrated the ability to adapt and be flexible to multiple work environments with ease. Created and executed lesson plans and activities on the fly if no set activities were prepared to ensure a positive learning environment for students. Built quick rapport with students through learning everyone’s names, having 1-1 activities with individual students, and conversating with students during lunch. I received high-performance evaluations gathered from survey data from teachers and schools and was offered multiple times to work full-time for schools. I love arts and crafts, dancing, and reading. I make sure to incorporate my interests into the activities that I create for the little ones in my care. I am also a recent University of Texas at Austin graduate. I have my BA in Psychology with a minor in Forensics. I plan on taking a break before going to graduate school and in the meantime, I look forward to taking care of and having fun with your children.

Grace
Hi there! My name is Grace, and I’ve been working with kids for over 10 years through babysitting, daycare, and now as a Children’s Minister. Most of my babysitting experience comes from helping with church events and caring for groups of children, but I also love working with families one-on-one. I’m confident with all ages, from infants to pre-teens and I’m passionate about creating a safe, fun, and encouraging environment. Parents can count on me to be reliable, patient, and engaged, whether it’s for a special event or a regular babysitting need. I’d love the chance to serve your family and make sure your kiddos feel cared for and valued!

Swathi
I am swathi and a mom to two kids. I have been taking care of my kids at home. I have zero experience of taking care of other kids. I usually conduct games and other activities with most of the kids when they gathered at home.

Madison
I have been a sitter for over 7 years with various families. The chicldren and I go outside, do arts and crafts, bake (if the parents allowed it), and play games together when I babysit. I am also a tutor for many children as of right now. I have mainly worked with ages 3 and up but also have had experience with newborns and infants as well. I think kids deserve the best care and the best guidance in a world that they are new to navigate. I want to be a good memory they can look reflect back on.

Kristine
My name is Kristine and I just moved to Austin for a new job! Babysitting is something that comes naturally to me because I looked after kids for as long as I can remember. Growing up in Nigeria as the oldest child in my family, I was automatically in charge of taking care of all my cousins, the children of uncles and aunties as well as my own younger siblings. I spent my time in undergrad engaged in after school child care through the Jumpstart AmeriCorp program, while also babysitting and providing childcare at church. While getting my masters, I also took care of three lovely kids and their family dog! They loved when I would travel home to Nigeria for Christmas break and bring them some snacks and souvenirs. I love children. They are a burst of fresh air and curiosity and always keep me in my toes! Looking forward to working with your child (ren) on a win-win situation where they have fun while you get some you time!
