Ihave quite a bit of experience in child care. Especially children with disabilities.
I was an office manager for a Speech and Language pathologist
Off and on for 20 years. Our children ranged fron 18 months - 15 years. Included in my job description was setting up educational, hands on, engaging activities.

In addition, I have managed all IEP'S. That consisted of contact within all school districts, and forward paperwork to the Health Department.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Payton, and I’m a caring, reliable, and experienced babysitter/nanny who truly enjoys working with children. I’m a parent to an almost 2½-year-old, which has given me strong, hands-on experience with toddlers and daily routines like meals, naps, diaper changes, and playtime. I also grew up helping care for my three younger siblings and have cared for multiple young family members of different ages.

I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable caring for more than one child at a time. I focus on creating a safe, nurturing, and fun environment while keeping children engaged with age-appropriate activities. I can also help with light housekeeping related to childcare, such as tidying up, dishes, and laundry. I have a reliable car and can assist with transportation if needed.

I treat every child as if they were my own and would love the opportunity to support your family with dependable, loving care.

A little bit about me

Hi I'm Serena! Since starting my career in childcare in 2015 serving as a summer camp volunteer to now working with elementary-age children with special needs in the Baltimore County Public School system, supporting the growth and development of our future generation has always been my passion.

When I walked into the classroom as an educator for the first time, I was greeted by several tiny people running to attack me in hugs and excitedly asking about what we would be making in our cooking class for the day, I knew this was the vocation for me. Especially now in 2020 in the face of an unprecedented "new normal", parents need support more than ever before to balance the hefty task of working, teaching, maintaining the home, cooking, and still leaving enough time in the day to just breathe. That is where I come in! As your sitter, It is my role to be your support when you need it the most.
