Hi- My name is Mercedes. I have a Master Degree in Early Childhood. As a toddler teacher, I spend my days singing silly songs, reading animated storybooks, building block towers, and turning everyday moments into fun learning adventures. I’m very familiar with routines (and how important they are!), whether it’s snack time, clean-up time, or winding down for bed. My personality is warm, patient, and playful. I’m the kind of caregiver who will happily sit on the floor to play, love story time, and celebrate even the smallest accomplishments. At the same time, I’m calm, dependable, and confident when handling big feelings or tricky moments. I have experience caring for multiple children at once, planning engaging activities, and creating a safe, nurturing environment where kids feel comfortable and happy. Most importantly, I treat every child like they are my own.
“Mercedes was great! She was timely and responsive and everything is alive still! Would hire again. ”
Hello! I am an experienced parent of a college-bound 17-year-old son and nurturing children comes naturally to me. I hold a graduate degree in art history and, during the week, work full time as the director and curator of a small art museum. I value children’s natural curiosity and bring a patient, creative, friendly, and steady approach to childcare. I am comfortable caring for one to two children at a time to ensure focused attention and personalized care. I enjoy engaging children with crafts, board games, puzzles, books, and general creative play. I prioritize open communication with parents, and I'm very comfortable upholding household rules. As a mother myself, I know the importance of having a trusted caregiver. My goal is to provide a safe, stimulating, and caring environment to ensure your child/ren feel secure and happy while you're out—and to provide you with peace of mind!

"UrbanSitter is my go-to for quality sitters! I can book weeks ahead of time or easily find a same-day sitter when in a bind. I even hired a part-time nanny during a daycare transition. Customer service is helpful and babysitters respond in a timely manner."
