Hi, my name is Mercedes. I am 20 years old. I am a college student planning on going into social work. I’m in my second year at Washtenaw community college. I have worked with kids ranging from 3 months to 17 years old. I am a direct care provider. I do also work with adults. I mainly work with kids that have behavioral challenges along with children that are disabled. I have a pretty flexible schedule. One of the many perks with my job! I am the oldest of five and have taken care of my siblings from a young age. I was placed in foster care and was adopted at 14. With my history I have found that I want to help children in need. In middle school I volunteered at a summer camp for elementary school aged children. In high school I was mentor for middle schoolers. During Read more my summers in high school I baby sat along with doing overnight camps. Outside of high school I have worked at two different care centers. I have babysat up to eight kids at a time. My Junior and senior year of high school I did coach lacrosse for elementary and middle school girls. I am a pretty active person along with some creativity. I am CPR certified along with other certifications that can be shown upon request.
