About Mercedes
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hi! I am a babysitter with more of 10 years of experience. I am CPR and First Aid Certified. I babysit kids of all ages and groups too. I play with them, help with the homework, cook for them, go to their activities. Reading, exploring and doing things or sports inside and outside is the way that I love to caring them. I like to be the right hand of the mommy. That defines me.

Mercedes has been our daughter’s nanny for the last 1.5 years, and we all love her so much! She started with us when our daughter was around 10 months old and has played an integral role in her development into a smart, happy, and loving toddler. Mercedes is incredibly patient, caring, and gentle, and I trust her to keep our daughter safe and happy. Mercedes takes our daughter on walks, attends story time classes at our library, and finds endless fun activities to keep our daughter engaged at home throughout the day. She keeps me in the loop on our daughter’s naps and eating progress each day, and she is quick to alert me if she feels anything seems off (like if my daughter is running a fever or doesn’t seem like herself). Mercedes always comes to work with a smile and a positive attitude, and she is very easy to talk to and get along with. She is also very responsive via text message, which comes in handy for any last minute updates (and receiving cute photos and videos throughout the day!). Our daughter will be starting preschool in September, otherwise we would work with Mercedes forever! She will care for your child as if they are her own, and any family would be more than lucky to have her.
