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.

Emily
Hi! I’m a current graduate student pursuing my Masters Degree in Education and a substitute teacher. I used to work at a tutoring center for 4 years working with kids on math and reading from grades pre-K to 10th. I have 2 years of teaching experience in science and special education classrooms. I also grew up babysitting my cousins, ages ranging from 2-8 years old. I strive to interact with kids through games and learning experiences that keep them active and curious.

Matthew
Hi! My name is Matthew. I work as a mental health therapist with kids from 6-months to 18-year-old. Previously, I worked at a pre-school in New York, while finishing my Master of Social Work. Before attending graduate school, I was an elementary school teacher, teaching both 5th Grade, as well as 3rd Grade. I have my teaching license, and my K-12 Gifted Education license. On top of teaching, I have worked with infants, toddlers, preschoolers, including a 1-year-old and her 3-year-old sister, as well as 3-year-old twins. Some of my responsibilities included doing school pick-ups, supervising play dates, preparing meals, taking kids to the library, and playground. I play sports, and love to swim as well. I won't just stick your child in front of the TV. I enjoy reading to children, as well as getting on the floor to play. I have my CPR and First Aid certification, including infant certification. I previously had my lifeguard certification, as well as my water safety instructor (WSI) certification. I have a driver's license, and a safe driving record too. Please feel free to let me know if you have any questions I can answer. I hope to hear from you soon!

AnnMarie
Hello! My name is AnnMarie! I’m a dependable and creative babysitter with experience as a toddler assistant teacher in a Montessori school. I’m also the oldest of six children, so I’ve spent a lifetime caring for and helping raise my younger siblings — my youngest sister is seven, and we still spend time together each week creating art, playing games, doing homework, and reading books. As both an artist and a big sister, I love offering screen-free, engaging activities like drawing, crafting, storytelling, and even singing together while I play guitar. When the weather allows, I enjoy spending time outdoors exploring, encouraging curiosity, and helping children discover the world around them. I’m patient, responsible, and deeply caring about children’s well-being — both their safety and emotional growth. Families describe me as positive, creative, and calm under pressure. I hope to bring my positivity, creativity, and care to your family by helping maintain your routines, fostering imagination, and ensuring your child feels safe, supported, and happy.

Zella
My name is Zella. I am a current freshman in college. I have experience working with families as well as looking after younger siblings (I am the oldest of 3 boys). I have experience working with children with autism, Tourette’s, as well as ADHD. I, myself am dyslexic and happy to help little ones (with and without learning disabilities) with school work. In addition to my childcare experience, I also worked as a nurse’s aide (CNA) in a long-term care home but am currently focused on school. I love spending time with kids as they are beautiful reminders of both the joys and chaos of life. I am used to the high energy of my home but also work well with kids who enjoy quieter fun, as I was one of these kids.

Hi, my name is Mayra Reveles. I am a student at Seattle Pacific University studying Business Administration with a focus in Marketing. I have one year of babysitting experience through Jovei Babysitting Company and additional experience volunteering at Meadow Crest Learning Center during my sophomore and junior years of high school. I worked as a teacher helper, leading activities, playing with children, and helping them stay safe and organized throughout the day, including assisting with after-school bus routines. I enjoy working with kids and creating a fun, caring, and safe environment where they feel comfortable and supported.

Skyler
Hi! My name is Skyler and I have been babysitting since I was 13 years old. In a more professional sense of childcare, I have been in the field for about 9 years now. I went to school at Central Washington University, where I received a degree in Family and Child Studies with a Specialization in Child Development. While I was getting my degree I was an assistant teacher at a preschool. After that, I moved states and was a lead teacher at a new school! I took a break from teaching after a while and I nannied for a couple of years before coming back to teaching in Washington. My current job is a Lead Teacher at a preschool and I have been doing that for 3 years now! In between all my teaching and nannying, I was always babysitting on the side. I could just never get enough time with my kiddos!

Lazarya
Currently an assistant teacher at a local montessori school. My love for kids extends beyond the classroom. As a past substitute daycare assistant teacher, I've missed these younger age groups!
