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.

I lead the special needs ministry for a large church. We rely on weekly help from sitters we book on SitterTree. The app makes it easy to connect with sitters in our area who have experience working with children with disabilities. We now have several Favorites who we book consistently. SitterTree has been a wonderful resource for our ministry.

Rokyah
Hi, my name is Rokyah Hamilton I’m 23 years old. I have a career, but I want to do something that I love most as a part time job. I am not a mother yet but I have two handsome nephews that I love dearly. The love I have for children is unconditional to the point that I pray that one day I’m able to leave my career to make my own daycare a full time job.

I have over ten years of hands-on childcare experience caring for children from newborns to age ten, primarily within my family, which is a valued part of my culture. My responsibilities included feeding, bathing, putting children to sleep, reading to them, and engaging them in age-appropriate play and learning activities. I hold a certificate in Early Childhood Education, which has strengthened my understanding of child development and safety. I genuinely enjoy working with children and take pride in creating a warm, nurturing, and structured environment where they feel safe, supported, and encouraged to grow emotionally, socially, and academically.

Hi, I’m Vanessa! Childcare is my passion, and I love helping kids learn and grow. I’m currently studying Early Childhood Education at Moraine Valley and hold a Level 1 ECE Credential, which I earned through hands‑on experience as an ECE intern at Reavis High School working directly in a Pre‑K classroom for 2 years. I have great hands-on classroom experience, and I’m still learning new creative ideas every day through my college classes. I’ll always make sure our days are safe, structured, and fun. A few quick facts about me: I’m fully bilingual (English/Spanish), a safe driver with my own car, and very organized with daily routines.
