We’re a women-owned and operated app committed to helping parents, preschools, and religious organizations find child care when they need it most. What started as a babysitter’s club in Atlanta has grown into a trusted network across the nation. But what hasn’t changed are the neighborly values SitterTree was founded on—because we believe truly great child care is rooted in community.


Michael
Hello, my name is Michael, I am 22 years old and working towards my masters in speech language pathology. I have experience with kids ages 5-12 in a one or two-on-one speech therapy setting as well as group summer camp experience with kids ages 7-12.

Nallely
Hi there! I'm Nallely. I've spent the last 5 years working with kids (especially ages 7 and up) and another 4 years as a paraprofessional for students with special needs. I'm creative, energetic, and great at building positive connections with children — especially those who need a little extra patience and understanding. Whether it's homework help, structured routines, or fun daily activities, I'm here to make your child feel supported and your life easier.

Adilene
Hello! I’ve worked with children professionally as a teachers assistant for 3-4 years and love every second of it. My favorite activities to do are arts and crafts along with music since I strongly believe kids learn best through play and should be able to express themselves creatively.

Asia
Hi! My name is Asia, and I’m an experienced and dependable babysitter who genuinely enjoys working with children. While attending college in Atlanta, I gained experience caring for children with different personalities, ages, and needs, including children who are nonverbal. I’m patient, attentive, and always make sure children feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while in my care. Now that I’m back in Chicago, I’m looking to connect with local families who need part-time or one-time babysitting. Whether you need care for a few hours, a date night, an event, or occasional help throughout the week, I’m happy to help. I’m responsible, caring, and committed to creating a safe, fun, and positive environment for every child I care for.

Makayla
Hi! My name is Makayla , and I absolutely love working with kids of all ages. I enjoy keeping kids engaged with fun activities like crafts, reading outdoor play, and educational games. Safety and communication are always my top priorities, and I do my best to make sure every child feels happy and comfortable while their parents feel confident and at ease.

Hayden
Hi! My name is Hayden Wilson, I am 25 years old and currently living in Edgewater. I moved to Chicago from St. Louis about 2 years ago. Since my move, I have worked for a nanny company. I worked with children from 6 months to 12 years, ranging from in-home care to events with up to 40 children! I love planning crafts and activities, and most of all seeing what children can make when given different materials and creative tools. While living in St. Louis I worked at The Little Gym as a children’s gymnastics instructor (ages 3-8) and at Kindercare as an assistant teacher (ages 2-5). I love reading, singing, and exploring the world with the kids in my care, and getting out into nature when we can!
