Dear Mrs. Natalie Mekelburger,


I have a strong ability to connect to children of all ages. Children respond well to me I
earn their respect by being consistent, setting limits and following through, and providing
structure and encouragement. As a result, I am well-known and trusted in my community
as a caregiver. I am currently pursuing a Bachelors degree in Elementary Education at
Wayne State University in Detroit, Michigan ultimately, making my love of children my
profession.


Sincerely,


Brett Mertz
