About Mercedes
Experience: 6 yrs
I'm a dependable and caring childcare provider with 6 years of experience working with children of all ages, including 4 years as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT). My experience has strengthened my ability to build strong relationships with children, support emotional regulation, create structured routines, and adapt to each child's unique needs and personality. One of my biggest strengths is taking the time to truly get to know the children I work with. Once I understand their routines, interests, and communication styles, I'm often able to anticipate their needs and help create a calm, positive, and successful day. I believe children thrive when they feel safe, supported, and understood. I'm organized, reliable, and proactive. I enjoy spending time outdoors, doing crafts, playing games, reading, and planning engaging activities. I value open communication with parents, have reliable transportation, and am comfortable with pets.
Most recent review
We truly cannot say enough good things about Sadie. She has worked with our son and has made an incredible impact on his life and on our family. Our son is on the autism spectrum, and from day one she has met him with patience, consistency, understanding, and so much genuine love. She has played such an important role in helping shape the child he is today, supporting his communication, independence and emotional regulation. She celebrates the little wins, works through the hard days, and never gives up on him. Her communication with our family has always been amazing, and she has always made us feel included, informed, and supported. She is trustworthy, dependable, and truly cares for the children she works with. She doesn’t just do her job she builds real relationships and pours her heart into it.
