Join the Summerville Sitters Network

We’re building a community of reliable, kind, and responsible sitters: for children, pets, and the families who love them.

At Summerville Sitters, we believe great care is about more than showing up; it’s about trust, consistency, and genuine connection. If you love working with children and take responsibility seriously, we’d love to hear from you.
