Our family absolutely loves SitterTree. No matter who we choose, sitters communicate, come prepared, are professional, and have a great work ethic and attitude. It is so incredibly easy to book, schedule, reschedule, read reviews, write reviews, and pay caregivers.

SitterTree took the stress out of child care.
Having no family help in Atlanta and a changing work schedule, SitterTree is a lifesaver! The sitters are wonderful, great with kids, keep things clean and neat, punctual, and are so personable. I feel so lucky to have them for date nights, school breaks, and anything else that comes up.

A well-qualified applicant within an hour or two.
I’ve used 6 different sitters, each of which has been amazing! It's super easy to post a job and I usually have a well-qualified applicant within an hour or 2. Paying is quick and simple. SitterTree has a text help number that must be manned basically 24/7 because I've never not received an immediate reply to a question.

Confident I will have a trusted person to watch my daughter.
Tori is amazing, she is so attentive to my daughter, warm and friendly. She was professional, great at communication, reliable and punctual. I love that she provides me check-in texts. Tori has been my sitter for 3-4 times now. My daughter is excited to see her each time, it shows the bond forming between them.

What’s the hourly rate per sitter?
The minimum hourly rate varies by city. Want to offer a higher rate to incentivize sitters to take your job when demand is high? Go for it!

My kids (and I) need consistency. If I find a sitter we love, can we book them again?
We hope you find sitters who become part of your family. Easily select sitters as favorites after each job. They will be notified first when you post a new job.
Are there any other fees?
There’s a 3.5% convenience fee for all payments. For a 3-hour booking, it works out to around $1.50.
