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.
- Ashley G. | Peachtree Church
I run a Children’s Ministry program at a large church. Without the help of fun, sweet, and energetic sitters every week, we would be in a bind!
It’s so easy and simple to schedule and pay the sitters online. It helps my team cut out hours of work of coordinating and cutting checks. I would recommend SitterTree to all families and churches!

Have questions?
These are the questions we hear most often. Let us put your mind at ease.
How much does it cost?
Pay a service fee to book each sitter. Then, pay your sitter an hourly rate after each job. Learn more.
Can I book the same sitter every week?
Yes! Select sitters as ‘Favorites’ and post jobs in advance to ensure your top sitters block their calendar for you.
How long will it take for sitters to apply?
In most locations, expect qualified sitters to apply to your job within hours. If SitterTree is new to your area, expect qualified sitters to apply in 1-2 weeks.
