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.

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!
