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.

Chelsey
My name is Chelsey, I’m 24 y/o. I’ve worked with children since I was 14 . I use to babysit for family and friends and wanted to take it further. I’ve worked in a childcare setting as well.

Vicky
Hi! My name is Vicky Vasquez, and I’m a passionate childcare professional with a background in early childhood and special education. I was born and raised in Chicago and have spent my entire life here, building strong roots in the numerous communities and working closely with children and families. I earned my degree in Early Childhood Education and Special Education and spent five amazing years working as a preschool/ special education teacher with Chicago Public Schools. During that time, I supported a diverse group of learners, created engaging lesson plans, and built nurturing environments where every child could thrive. Although I recently made a career shift into recruiting, I deeply miss working directly with children and being part of their daily growth and development. Babysitting allows me to stay connected to my passion by caring for and supporting young children in a meaningful way. I aim to bring a calm, patient, and positive energy to every family I work with. My teaching background helps me create fun, educational, and safe experiences for kids of all ages and kids with all needs! I would love the opportunity to support your family and provide your child(ren) with a caring, dependable, and engaging babysitter!

Stacy
Hi, I'm Stacy and I love to care for children. I’m new to Sittercity, but NOT new to caring for children. I have more than 5 years experience as a teacher and also more than 10 years experience as a professional Nanny. I’m CPR certified and first aid trained, and I have cared for newborns on up to high school aged kiddos and I have loved it all! Additionally, I have 2 degrees in Education. What else ? I know how to cook and do meal preparation, my vaccinations are current and I’m comfortable with pets. I'm a native English speaker and I know Spanish as well. I love teaching children the Spanish words for animals and shapes and colors and numbers and everyday items. I have worked with children of all ages and I have loved it all. Additionally, I can pass a background check, I have my own car and I have a clean driving record. I am comfortable with pets and I do not smoke. ++Please note that I do not provide my references to a potential family until you and I are very sure that we're a match. (sorry to be harsh but I can not burn out my references from getting calls from families that aren't very serious about hiring me. I'm sure you understand this). I like to start with one or two short interviews and if we feel that we be match, then perhaps a few working interviews, during which, we can see in real time,if we are a fit.
