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 working with our family for the past 2 years and is the most wonderful, responsible, and trustworthy caregiver. My kids (2 boys) absolutely adore her. She is patient, kind, reliable, helpful, and always goes above and beyond. We are so grateful for all the care she provides our family. 

We absolutely recommend Mercedes! She was an amazing sitter to our two boys and our puppy Scratch (a lab that unexpectedly grew to 95lbs at 8 months…a testament to her patience 😅!)  We had just moved to the area and I had just returned to work when we hired Mercedes. Our youngest was having a tough transition but Mercedes navigated his frustrations with poise and grace. She provided a consistent nurturing environment that helped him turn the corner and really settle into his new routine! Our oldest son had an easier transition with the move, but she was able to make him also feel supported while still addressing our youngest’s more immediate needs. Again, we highly recommend Merceds and are available to discuss further if needed!

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. 

Mercedes helped us our with our 3 month old son when I returned to work.  She was absolutely amazing with our newborn.  She was caring, sweet, and so loving with our son.  Our son would light up when she walked in.  She would play developmentally appropriate games with him as well as take him for walks and read to him.  She was always on time and communicated very well.  I work from home and she also made me feel really comfortable. I would run errands from time to time and she would help me unload groceries.  She was also great with our dog and made our home feel warm and safe.  She is wonderful with newborns and I cannot recommend her enough!!

Mercedes is amazing! We hired her to help with my 7-week old daughter and she was so good with her. She was easy to communicate with and very dependable. I would 100% hire her again.

Mercedes was a godsend for us! My wife desperately needed a break while on maternity leave and Mercedes took care of our infant two afternoons a week. She was amazing. So kind, caring, and calming for us as anxious new parents. Mercedes took wonderful care of our son for four months, from age two months to six months (until my wife went back to work and our son started daycare). We will definitely be calling on Mercedes in the future for ad hoc babysitting as she is so lovely with our son and also with us!  Don't think my wife could have made it through the chaos and exhaustion of maternity leave without her.

Mercedes was wonderful with our 15 month old. Our daughter was comfortable with her very quickly, and it is clear that Mercedes' has experience working with young children. Mercedes is punctual, responsible, patient, attentive, flexible and a genuine pleasure to work with. We highly recommend her!!

I hired Mercedes because I am a single parent and needed help with my one and a half year old twins.  I have found in her a very loving person with children and with a lot of experience and capacity. She woke up the children, changed them, spent a large part of the morning with them until she took them to their dayCare.
She is sweet, responsible and very communicative. She still is my first option when I need help with my two babies.

I interviewed Mercedes and I was excited and looking forward to her helping us take care of our daughter. After the interview she agreed to send me her references that way I can follow up before she would start. Unfortunately I never heard back. I also followed up and she never responded to my message. I am disappointed as this is very unprofessional and could of had the common courtesy to respond if she wasn't interested after all.

We hired Mercedes for short term help with our now 4 month old daughter, coming in twice a week for five weeks. During that time, Mercedes was absolutely wonderful with our daughter. She was caring and attentive, always engaging with our daughter, whether through reading or singing. We transitioned to cloth diapers during that time and she didn't miss a step! She quickly gained our confidence and I was able to use the time to run errands. She was always punctual and a great communicator. We look forward to working with Mercedes in the future!!

Mercedes came to watch my 9 month old son and we couldn't have been happier with her quality of care!  We were very nervous to leave my son with someone (we've never had to have someone outside the family watch him), but Mercedes made us feel very comfortable! He absolutely loved her and was extremely happy when I came home. We will absolutely be hiring her in the future!

I hired Mercedes to meet my kindergartner and third grader at the bus and keep them busy with planned activities and their schedule until I came home late.  My children really enjoyed their new babysitter and want her to come back soon.  I was appreciative that she was punctual, dependable, mature, safety-minded, and fun.  

I look forward to hiring her again soon!

I really liked her as my son's babysitter, she's very good with children and she loves entertaining them. My son loved her as his babysitter!! If I had the chance I would totally hire her again!!

She is very sweet and always on time, I would highly recommend her

Mercedes helped me with child pick up and drop off.  She was always punctual and had a wonderful spirit.  My children loved riding with her.  We would definitely hire her again!
