Meet Mercedes
- Comfortable with pets
- Has a car
I was born and raised in Houston, TX. I have always been around small children, as my mother was a foster parent while I was growing up. As a teen, I was able to help take care of many different children in our home, who all had a variety of needs. I believe that fostering children in the home I grew up in makes me a great candidate for being a Nanny. I have 1 daughter of my own who is 5 years old. She is currently home-schooled, as I find that proper education is essential to her overall growth and development. I do place a high emphasis on the importance of education and count daily life experiences as learning opportunities. I am a firm believer that consistency and love are necessary in nurturing a child's many talents and abilities. I have 5 years experience teaching elementary Sunday School, and Read more have worked for 3 years in a Montessori School Setting. If you have any questions, or would like to talk more about me being your Nanny, please don't hesitate to call me at (832)572-9981
