A little bit about me

Hi there! I’m Peyton, an 18 year old college student in Austin looking for a part or full time nannying position.

I have a car and a drivers license and I’ve been driving since 16. I have experience as a tutor and I’m strong in math. I’m not a smoker or drinker so you won’t have to worry about any of that. I believe I would be a great fit in any family, as I adapt to new situations and environments well.
