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!
