Even though my son is all grown up, I have a special connection to babies, young children, and animals. They are naturally drawn to me. I’m organized, clean, and tidy. I love to prepare healthy meals and will always incorporate a fun art project during the day or evening. I’m adept at sleep training infants and toilet training toddlers. I’m also comfortable with any pets in the household.

A little bit about me

Hi my name is Payeton, I am 25 years old, and I have a 6 month old baby boy. My boyfriend had a job opportunity here in the Los Angeles area and we have been here for about 4 months. He recently has to get surgery and will be out of work for awhile, and I am looking to make a little extra money on my own, but if possible I would like to bring my child along with me as I don’t want to miss any milestones. It would never take away from taking care of other children. I don’t have paid past experience but I do have 4 younger siblings that I’ve taken care of, the youngest being 20 years younger than me. I know having my child there would be not a common thing to do, but if you give me a chance I would really appreciate it. Thank you.
