Hi! I’m Payton Wilkerson I will graduate high school in May 2025. I am CPR/first aid certified and love kids. I’ve watched kids my entire life and currently watch my sister’s two children who are 2 and 5 weeks old, and I have watched siblings that were 3 and 8 and more! I’m comfortable watching children any age.

My favorite thing to do with kids is be outside whenever possible, plan STEAM activities with them, and learn through play. I’m absolutely willing to meet you and your child’s needs with what’s comfortable and convenient.

I’m available to work Monday-Friday any times of the day, full time or part time. I’m flexible with pricing, so please reach out and we can discuss what works best for your family.

Recent reference

"Our kids LOVE Sarah and were so sad when she moved! She consistently played with them, took care of them, and found fun things for them to do daily including making cookies, playing with sidewalk chalk, dancing and singing with them, etc. She is extremely responsible and always showed up a couple minutes early which we really appreciated. She always kept her cool even amidst the biggest meltdowns (which there were many of with two toddlers). Would highly recommend Sarah to any family looking for a highly engaged, responsible nanny who your kids will adore!"
