Britney Spears took time out from promotional duties for pop comeback album to pick up son Jayden James from playschool at the weekend.

In a picture-perfect family moment that was a world away from last year's train wreck antics, the doting mother held her youngest boy in her arms after his first day under the watchful eye of dad Jamie.

The Piece Of Me singer lost custody of her two boys in January after a very public breakdown, which saw her father given control over her affairs.

And it seems Jamie has helped guide his daughter back to full health, with playing mommy again her top priority.
