Don't want to be funny but get yourself a minivan!!! LOL. The GLC may be too small for 3 car seats. GLE and GLS (with 3 rows of seats) may be in order if you plan to stick with Mercedes.

Ok, seriously though. The GLC has anchor points to fit two car seats at least but you can fit three in there. It would be crazy tight but it will work.
I would secure the middle child seat with the anchor points from the two "side" anchor points. There are only 4 available lower child seat tether points in the back seat. The other two car seats (behind driver side and passenger side) would need to be secured with the seat belts only. The top anchor's go behind the back seat. You are also in luck as the middle "ski hatch" has an anchor as well in the back to tether the middle child seat and make it more secure.

Gotta drive the kiddo's in style! Yeah baby!!!
