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.

Inara
I love helping and tending to the youth. I believe that they are truly our future and if there is anything to do that may impact their lives, I want to be apart of it. I've gotten experience by taking care of my younger siblings and the children of all ages in my Church!

Courtney
I love children and I love to help others anyway that I can I’m very kind and sweet anyone that know me would absolutely say the same thing

Emy
I'm a mother of 3 (all adults), Gigi of 1. I am a part-time caregiver of my disabled sister. I'm also a Realtor. I'm looking for another stream of revenue to supplement my income and desire to do something along the lines of what I'm passionate about. My passion is people, especially children. My expertise is families with special needs as I have an adult son on the spectrum and my sister whom I have cared for all my life. It takes special people to work with special people and God has given me that gift. I also treat everyone like my family.

Hi! I’m Mylah, and caring for children has always been a passion of mine. As the oldest of four siblings, I’ve spent years naturally stepping into a nurturing and responsible role, which led me to nannying, babysitting, teaching, and children’s ministry. My Christian faith is at the heart of how I care for others, and I strive to lead with kindness, patience, integrity, and compassion. My goal is to create a safe, fun, and loving environment where children can grow and families feel at peace.

Erin
I’m currently enrolled in my local university studying Elementary Education after a recent internship I had within an elementary school. During that time, I worked with various students with different ways of learning. Although everyone learns differently, I still managed and tried my best to include and help the kids understand my lessons and what was being said by my mentor. I love working with children and until I get my teaching position, would love to babysit/nanny beside my school schedule.

Aly
Hi! I have extensive experience working with children ranging from 4 months to 11 years old. I have provided nurturing and reliable care as a babysitter, ensuring children’s safety while supporting their growth through play, learning, and daily routines. In addition, my role as a preschool teacher allowed me to develop and lead age-appropriate activities that encourage creativity, social skills, and early academic development. I am skilled at creating a positive, structured environment where children feel safe, valued, and inspired to learn. My experience has strengthened my patience, communication, and ability to adapt to each child’s individual needs.

Zuri
Hello! My name is Zuri, and I have over 10 years of experience caring for children of all ages, from newborns to high schoolers. I first began by helping my sister care for my nephew, and since then I’ve had the opportunity to work with children in many settings. I’ve volunteered and assisted in churches, interned at an elementary school, supported middle and high school classrooms, babysat for family friends, and provided consistent care as a full-time nanny for a variety of families.
