About Mercedes
Experience: 8 yrs
Greetings parents! I am Mercedes. My family and friends call me Mercy. I have experience raising two kids of my own . I am highly skilled in providing basic care for infants and toddlers such as changing diapers, preparing meals, and feeding and comforting them. Moreover, I am able to maintain the play area, plan and apply sports and craft activities and serve snacks. Protecting children from any potential hazard is my foremost priority all times. Furthermore, My social and gracious nature provides me with a great ability to communicate effectively with children and adults from various backgrounds. I have a valid driveràs license, and also possess an up to date Green Card. My Patience, reliability and commitment to the total development of children makes me the ideal candidate for any Child Care position. I can write a book on why I think I am qualified for this position but I would rather show you. My schedule is very flexible and to most hours.

I am a single parent father with a 12 hour day job. Mercedes was like a mother to me and my newborn son. She taught me how to read my sons body language and even more taught me how to be a responsible parent. I cant say enough positive things about Mercedes. If i did not have to move she would still be working with me and my son. I still keep in touch with her for free advice.
