About Mercy

My name is Mercy and I am happy to be your choice caregiver. I spent the last 4 years caring for my grandkids and now the younger one is off to middle school come this Fall. This gives me ample time to seek work outside of the home. Before I settled with my grandkids, I took care of my husband with a stroke until he passed 5 years ago. I took the PCA training and helped take care of a paralyzed patient in Minnesota until I moved to Virginia.
