A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Payton and i’m currently 21. I’m from a small town that’s about 3 hours from the city. I love cats, I’m OK with dogs and of course I love kids. I don’t have any of my own but I grew up with my older sisters kids. I have helped take care of them since they were born and they’re currently 7 and 4. I’m willing to love and care for your kids as they are my own. I do not have a set schedule yet as I will be moving to the city in April of 2024. I may start night classes in the summer but I have no other obligations as of now. Ask me anything you would like to know. You can find me on facebook as Payton Ann, if you would like to take a look at my life!!

A little bit about me

Hi, I'm Tiana! I'm 26 years old and recently moved to Chicago after getting married this past summer. I grew up in Michigan's Upper Peninsula as the youngest of four siblings, which helped shape my family-oriented personality and love of being around others. In my free time, I enjoy trying new coffee shops, working out, spending time with my husband and friends, and being outdoors whenever I can. People who know me would describe me as highly organized, energetic, bubbly, responsible, and dependable. I love staying active, creating routines, and bringing a positive attitude to everything I do.
Professionally, I have experience as a lifeguard, swim instructor, barista, server, host, and special education teacher. These roles have helped me develop strong communication skills, patience, flexibility, and a natural ability to connect with children and families. I take pride in being someone parents can trust and someone children enjoy spending time with.
