About Mercedes

I am an experienced and dedicated education professional with over four years of working with young children. I spent three years as a third-grade teacher, where I developed strong skills in lesson planning, classroom management, and supporting students' academic and social growth. In addition, I worked for one year as a kindergarten paraprofessional, providing individualized support, assisting with daily routines, and helping create a positive, nurturing learning environment. I am passionate about helping children learn, grow, and build confidence. I bring patience, creativity, and strong communication skills to every interaction, and I am committed to supporting each child's unique needs in a safe and engaging environment.
