Hi! I'm Payton, I'm 23 years old and currently a Business Development Rep at Groupon! I relocated from Washington State in September after receiving my bachelors degree in business and have been living in the city since. I have nannied for approximately 5 years now with a wide variety of experience. I've nannied for families ranging from 1 child to 4 children. I have experience with children with special needs such as autism (severe end of the spectrum), epilepsy and Aspergers. I've nannied children ages 6 mos- 12 years. The last family I nannied for in Chicago was a family of two working executives with two boys ages 7 and 12. I assisted with household tasks, such as laundry, cooking, cleaning, and helped with transportation to and from school, sports, etc. I also would stay the night on nights when the parents would be out late or need me there Read more very early. I also have my own car: a 2013 Nissan Sentra which is very reliable and safe. I am very active and love sports, such as basketball, volleyball, baseball, etc. I love to read and write, I spend a lot of time outdoors, I enjoy art and especially love music. I have experience with Spanish and tutoring for various educational categories. I also love pets and I'm very pet friendly!! I look forward to hearing from you!

Payton is super responsive and her communication was great. She arrived 20 minutes early and chatted with us before she watched our two boys ages 5 & 6 for about 6 hours. They loved her! She was interactive with them and made sure that they were in bed asleep by the time we got home. We will definitely have her back in the future.
