A little bit about me

Hi!! I’m Payton and I was a substitute teach for about a year for grades K-4 and loved it! I moved to Kansas and was a live in nanny for about a year. The kiddos were 1 and 4! I would take the one kiddo to school for a half day and pick up, taking them to hair appointments and jujutsu, along with cooking and cleaning! I also have nephews that I would help take care of when growing up.
Anyone who knows me knows the one thing in life I want is to be a mom. I currently work at family physicians office in Kansas and the best part is helping the moms by holding the sweet babies and watching the kids grow… but until it’s my time, I’m a mom of 2 dogs! I can’t wait to experience this new adventure in Dallas and look forward to this opportunity!
