About Mercedes

Hi! I grew up as the third oldest in my big family of 13, so I have grown up helping out with my siblings my whole life! It has been a blessing to me in learning how to take care of children and be responsible! I'd describe my personality as laid back, fun, pretty outgoing, creative, and joyful! I like working with kids because I grew up in a big family, always hanging out with my little siblings! It became so fun for me, and I just loved being around them, still do to this day! Also because childhood is so important! If I can help make it fun, and a good experience all around that's a privilege for me! I also grew up on a farm with lots of animals so I am comfortable with most pets! I started working with kids as a paid babysitter when I was 19, but I also grew up watching my little siblings starting at about 15! In my spare time, I like to paint, read, knit, take walks, get coffee, cook and bake, workout, travel, play games, and just hang out with friends and family!
