“I cannot express my admiration for Sheri enough as our Nanny in Kapalua. Originally hired for just a month during a challenging and stressful period, she graciously extended her stay and consistently exceeded expectations to make the past year more manageable for all of us, especially my two sons. Despite facing the ups and downs of our family dynamics, Sheri has remained a loving and optimistic presence. She quickly formed a strong bond with our children and has never let them down, providing warmth, care, and necessary structure. From picking them up after school until dinnertime, she diligently assists with their homework, even with the added complexity of one of our sons having learning disabilities. I can always rely on her to keep me informed about their lives and relay any important messages from their teachers. In addition to these invaluable qualities, Sheri possesses exceptional organizational skills, which have been an absolute lifesaver for both the boys and me. With a higher than usual number of appointments and conflicting activities to manage, she gracefully rises to the challenge. Furthermore, when the boys are in school, Sheri takes on a multitude of tasks for me, ranging from running errands to researching obscure topics and potential purchases. Her commitment to finding bargains has helped us stay within budget more effectively than I ever could have. Her efforts have alleviated a significant amount of stress for me and ensured that I meet deadlines that would have otherwise been missed.”

“I want to start by providing some background on why we hired Nanny in Kapalua and our family situation. As a stay-at-home Dad, I needed to return to work due to my divorce and upcoming move to a new residence in September. Initially, we needed someone full-time for the month of August, with plans to transition to part-time in September when the children started school. However, we faced additional challenges as my eldest son struggled with behavior and emotional problems, which made parenting difficult. The divorce was also taking a toll on both of my children's behaviors. Despite these circumstances, Sheri accepted the position as a Nanny in Kapalua and embraced it wholeheartedly. During this time of transition, Sheri provided much-needed structure for the children. She effortlessly handled the daily logistics of errands, doctor's appointments, and school pickups. She maintained regular communication with me, ensuring that I never worried about the safety of my children. In fact, Sheri went above and beyond by working closely with an Applied Behavior Analyst (ABA) to implement a reward-based parenting technique that greatly benefited my children. She sought guidance from my son's Psychologist and Therapist to better understand how to handle him. Additionally, Sheri collaborated with my youngest son's Therapist to address his anger related to the divorce. She leveraged all of this knowledge to develop and implement an after-school program that incorporated homework completion, attendance at activities, and free time. Remarkably, Sheri even managed to keep the home clean, prepare lunches, and make dinner, all while finding time to keep me informed about the day's events, review homework, and discuss upcoming events. Thanks to Sheri's love and care, my children's behavior has remarkably improved. She also took on the role of a personal assistant, assisting my wife and me outside of her responsibilities as a Nanny. She played a crucial role in our move to a new apartment, meeting with realtors and shopping for furniture and essentials to create a comfortable and safe living space for the boys, who primarily reside with me. Furthermore, when we needed additional help during weekdays and weekends, Sheri handled the entire process of hiring, from placing ads to screening candidates, conducting interviews, and negotiating salaries. While she thought I made the final decision, it was truly her discernment that allowed us to find someone who shared her dedication and love for the children. Sheri proved to be an incredible personal assistant as well, as she took care of daily errands, managed my routine, reminded me of appointments, and took charge of tasks that allowed me to focus on my new job. Replacing her will undoubtedly be a challenge. Sheri is a dependable and reliable individual who effortlessly tackles daily tasks and adjusts to changing needs. She listens to advice from others and translates it into effective actions. Sheri also offers sound advice but always seeks approval before taking action. Throughout this difficult year, Sheri has made our lives easier by managing daily chores such as making lunches, preparing dinner, doing laundry, keeping the apartment clean, and grocery shopping. Furthermore, she has been a source of comfort, guidance, and at times, a disciplinarian for my children. Sheri's remarkable qualities make her an exceptional caregiver, and I highly recommend her.”

Throughout the eight years she has been with us, Sheri has adjusted her interaction with the children as they grew. She skillfully handles all aspects of caring for my 6-month old, including attending to illnesses, diapering, and food preparation. When my Keokea child was diagnosed with ADHD in 1999, Sheri provided him with the additional patience and guidance he needed. She followed a special diet we implemented, excluding foods with preservatives, artificial colors, and flavors. She also drove him to therapy sessions when necessary.

“When my older daughter, Alesandra, was only 2 years old and my youngest daughter, Danielle, had just been born, I needed some extra help with childcare. That's when Sheri stepped in as a temporary nanny whenever my full-time nanny needed time off or was on vacation. This arrangement continued until my full-time nanny had to leave her position. At that point, I made the decision to hire Sheri as my full-time Nanny in Kapalua. Sheri proved to be an amazing nanny, showing great care, patience, and helpfulness towards my daughters. Each day, my girls eagerly anticipated her arrival. Not only did she excel in her role as a nanny, but Sheri also worked harmoniously with both my children and myself. She took care of everything from diaper changes, feedings, and playtime to assisting with grocery shopping and running light errands. I had complete trust in her, even entrusting her to drive my children in her car. She even joined us on our summer vacations, joining us on our boat trips and beach outings. Eventually, circumstances changed, and my mother decided to move in with us permanently. As a result, my need for a full-time nanny diminished. It was a sad moment when Sheri had to leave our family. She was truly an exceptional individual, and I am grateful that she had the opportunity to be a part of our lives.”

“I had the pleasure of meeting Sheri when I was working with a client in the autumn of 2006. Sheri held the role of nanny for their two boys, aged 8 and 11. These boys presented considerable challenges in terms of their needs and behavior, particularly given the difficult circumstances of their parents' ongoing divorce. Despite the parents being forced to live together for the sake of the children, Sheri played a vital role in keeping this family from completely falling apart during this tumultuous time. While everything else in their lives seemed to constantly change, Sheri remained a constant source of stability. She handled the parents and the boys with a calm and assertive approach. Despite facing unreasonable and ever-changing demands, she managed her time effectively. Sheri developed a parental-like relationship with the boys: providing them with immense love and care, but also setting clear boundaries and expectations. The boys truly adored her and sought her guidance and support. Sheri's contribution to the behavioral modification of these boys was invaluable. I had frequent communication with Sheri and she was always readily available to provide information and collaborate. We would meet in her home to brainstorm and discuss strategies. She was dedicated and committed to helping the boys in any way she could. Once we had established goals and plans, Sheri successfully implemented the strategies we devised. This was no easy task, as one of the boys was on the autism spectrum and the other struggled with anger and resentment, constantly seeking negative attention. Sheri had to navigate through violence, cursing, yelling, and personal insults, all while managing their hectic schedules, ensuring their homework was completed, and making sure they were fed and showered in a timely manner. Every aspect of her role was a battle, but she handled it with grace. Additionally, she seamlessly incorporated the new behavior systems and guidelines that were put in place for the family. Not only did Sheri have a profound impact on the boys, but she also provided support to the parents during their personal struggles. Throughout it all, she maintained her professionalism and personal integrity. Sheri did not take things personally and was able to discern the true nature of the situation. Her primary goal was to create a positive environment and maintain a reliable structure for the boys to live in. Overall, Sheri demonstrated exceptional efficiency, reliability, maturity, quick thinking, creativity, patience, professionalism, and friendliness. She would undoubtedly be an asset to any family, and I wholeheartedly recommend her without any reservations.”

“When Sheri first started as a caregiver to one of my students, Ryan, our relationship began to form. Having been a Nanny to six children in the past and a Nursery School teacher, I could immediately recognize that Sheri possessed all the qualities necessary to be an exceptional Nanny. One example of this is how she faithfully brings Ryan to school each day and eagerly inquires about his day and progress. Sheri goes above and beyond to involve herself in Ryan's daily activities at school.

Firm yet caring, Sheri's playfulness with the children is simply wonderful. Her natural ability to lead captivates their attention without her having to demand it. After observing Sheri on our first field trip together, I was truly at ease knowing she would be assisting with another trip involving Ryan's class.

Sheri effortlessly transported 3 to 4 students to and from the field trips, demonstrating exceptional skill and safety. I am also immensely impressed by the progress Sheri has helped Ryan make in his learning journey.

In addition to these qualities, Sheri possesses other essential characteristics necessary for childcare. Her communication skills are exemplary as she effortlessly communicates with both children and adults. Furthermore, Sheri values personal care and always presents herself in a presentable manner, instilling the importance of grooming in the children she cares for. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Sheri as a Nanny in Kapalua. Any family would be fortunate to have her as she possesses all the qualities required for exceptional childcare. She has proven herself to be a responsible and competent caregiver, and it is a pleasure to write this letter of recommendation for her.”
