Hi Families!My name is Payton P, I'm 20 years old, and I'm currently working on my Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) degree, with plans to graduate online this October. I've spent the past few years working with babies and have always loved caring for little ones. As one of the oldest in my family, I helped take care of my younger siblings whenever needed, which gave me a lot of hands-on experience.I'm CPR certified, have great references, and completed training while working at BDLC, where I cared for infants as young as 2-3 months up to about 18 months old. I currently have availability three days a week since I'm doing an internship on the other two days.I'd love the chance to help out and care for your little ones! Let me know if you'd like to chat more!

Hi! I am originally from Chicago but moved to Nashville in 2019. I have worked with and been around children all my life. I love teaching them, as well as doing fun activities with them. I have babysat and been a mother's helper since I was 11 years-old and would consider myself an excellent role model to children. I have worked for many different families over the year, and especially love to find a regular family that needs date night sitters that I can can continue to babysit for. I was a full-time nanny all 4 years of college for a family with 5 kids, all under the age of 5 years old including a set of twins. I then was also a nanny the first couple years I lived in Nashville for 2 little boys, one being completely immune compromised and on a feeding tube. I have felt with every challenge of babysitting and am comfortable with all age groups. I have lived in Nashville for 5 years now and am very familiar with almost all areas of Nashville and kid friendly activities in Nashville as well. I have many amazing references from my families I am currently or have babysat for and would be glad to pass the information along. My schedule is pretty flexible and I have pretty open availability with a bit of notice. Would love to chat more and hopefully be your families new go to babysitter :)
