“Bristol County Nanny: I cannot express enough how amazing Sheri has been! When she first joined our family, it was during a challenging and stressful time, and she initially agreed to stay for just a month. However, she has continuously exceeded expectations and gone above and beyond to make the past year easier for all of us, especially my two sons. Despite the ups and downs of our family, Sheri has remained a loving and positive presence throughout. She quickly formed a strong bond with our children and has consistently provided them with warmth, nurturing, and the necessary structure and discipline. From the moment they leave school until dinnertime, Sheri is there for the boys, actively engaging in their homework, including our son with learning disabilities. She always keeps me informed about their lives and communicates any updates from their teachers in a timely manner. In addition to these invaluable qualities, Sheri possesses a remarkable organizational talent that has greatly benefited both the boys and me. With numerous appointments and conflicting activities to manage, Sheri has effortlessly risen to the challenge. Furthermore, even when the boys are at school, she takes on various tasks for me, ranging from running errands to conducting research on obscure topics and potential purchases. (Speaking of purchases, Sheri is an expert bargain-hunter and has diligently managed our budget!) Her efforts have significantly reduced my stress levels and ensured that I meet deadlines that would have otherwise slipped through the cracks.”
“Let me first provide some context regarding the hiring of the Bristol County Nanny and our family situation. As a stay-at-home Dad, I found the need to return to work due to my divorce from my wife. Additionally, we were in the process of moving to a new residence in September. Our initial plan was to hire someone full-time for the month of August and then transition to part-time in September once the children started school. We faced the challenge of parenting my eldest son, who had behavior and emotional issues that made things quite challenging. The divorce had also impacted both of my children's behaviors, resulting in increased anger in the household. However, despite being aware of all these complexities, Sheri willingly accepted the position and immediately jumped in.
During this transitional period, Sheri brought much-needed structure to the children's lives. Handling daily logistics such as running errands, scheduling doctor's appointments, and picking up the kids from school, she effortlessly managed everything. I never had to worry about the safety of my children as Sheri kept me informed every day through phone calls and emails. She collaborated with an Applied Behavior Analyst (ABA) to implement a reward-based parenting technique that helped address my children's challenges. Sheri also sought guidance from my son's Psychologist and Therapist to gain a better understanding of how to handle his unique needs. Additionally, she worked with my youngest son's therapist in New Shoreham to address his anger stemming from the divorce. Drawing from this wealth of knowledge, Sheri developed an after-school program that ensured the completion of homework, attendance at extracurricular activities, and allowed for some free time. She even managed to keep the home clean, prepare lunches, and make dinner. Each day before leaving, Sheri made sure to update me on the day's events, review the children's homework, and discuss upcoming activities.
The impact Sheri has had on my children's behavior has been remarkable. My eldest son is showing significant improvement in school and exhibiting a calmer demeanor. Likewise, my youngest son's anger issues have subsided, and he is behaving much better. I attribute a large portion of these positive changes to Sheri's genuine love and care for them. Furthermore, Sheri went above and beyond her role as a Bristol County Nanny by assuming the additional responsibilities of a personal assistant. She assisted my wife and me in various tasks related to our new apartment, including meeting with realtors and shopping for furniture and essentials. Given that the boys primarily live with me, Sheri played a crucial role in creating a comfortable and safe living environment. When I encountered difficulties with the landlord, she took charge and spearheaded efforts to gather information from the town and county, ultimately helping me build a strong case to move out. Throughout the year, it became necessary to hire someone to care for the children on certain nights and weekends. Sheri took on the responsibility of placing ads, screening phone responses, conducting interviews, and negotiating salaries. Although I let her believe I made the final hiring decisions, in truth, it was her excellent judgment that led us to find someone who shared her genuine love and dedication towards the children.
Unsurprisingly, Sheri has become an invaluable presence in my life. She not only handles daily tasks with effortless grace but also adapts flexibly when adjustments are required. Sheri is open to advice from others and knows how to effectively translate it into action. While she is capable of offering sound advice, she always seeks approval before taking action. This past year has been challenging for my family, but Sheri has lightened the burden by assuming essential daily chores such as making lunches, cooking dinner, doing the children's laundry, keeping the apartment clean, and grocery shopping. However, her impact goes beyond these tasks. She has also provided immense comfort, guidance, and at times, disciplinary support to my children. Sheri's ability to multitask and handle various responsibilities is truly remarkable, and I wholeheartedly recommend her for any similar role.”

I consider myself extremely fortunate to have discovered Sheri to care for my children. She has been an absolute blessing. In March 1997, my husband and I interviewed Sheri through a nanny agency, seeking a nanny for our three children. At that time, our children ranged from 6 months to 6 years old.

She skillfully addressed the needs of my 6-month-old, handling various situations such as illnesses, diaper changes, and food preparation. In 1999, we discovered that my child from East Providence had ADHD. Sheri stepped in to provide him with the additional patience and guidance he needed. She adhered to a special diet we implemented, eliminating foods with preservatives, artificial colors, and flavors. When he required therapy sessions, she even drove him to the therapist as necessary. Sheri has even assisted my daughter in building confidence and a positive mindset during her pre-teen years, offering guidance in hairstyles, clothing choices, and general advice. She is an exceptional individual who genuinely adores children, and the children reciprocate that adoration."peanut butter and jelly kisses"Bristol County Nanny: Sheri's Version of Fun and Adventure!

“In December 1999, we were introduced to Sheri as Holly's Bristol County Nanny. Holly and Rachel, our daughter, share a strong friendship, often having sleepovers together. Sheri would usually be at Holly's house, taking care of the children. It was comforting to know that we could trust Sheri completely with Rachel's well-being. Sheri consistently demonstrated her reliability and sense of responsibility. Rachel developed a deep fondness for Sheri, admiring her boundless energy and genuine enthusiasm.”
“In 1988, I was introduced to Sheri, who happened to be my nanny's cousin. At that time, my older daughter, Alesandra, was two years old, and my youngest, Danielle, had just been born. Sheri initially filled in for my nanny on her days off, vacations, and so on. This arrangement continued until 1989, when my nanny had to leave her position, and I offered Sheri the opportunity to become our full-time nanny in Bristol County. She truly was exceptional in this role - displaying an immense amount of care, patience, and helpfulness. Both of my daughters eagerly awaited her arrival every day. Sheri effortlessly managed various tasks, like changing diapers, feeding, playing, and even assisting with grocery shopping and simple errands. I had complete trust in her, even to the point of letting her drive my children in her car. In fact, she even joined us on our boat and at the beach during summer vacations. At a later point, when my mother moved in permanently, the need for a full-time nanny diminished. It was with great sadness that we bid farewell to Sheri. She truly was an incredible person, and I am grateful that my family had the privilege of having her as a part of our lives.”

“I had the privilege of meeting Sheri when I was working with a client in the fall of 2006. At that time, I had been tasked with providing behavioral consultation and parent training to a family referred to me by the Division of Youth and Family Services. Sheri had been working as a nanny for the family's two boys, aged 8 and 11. These boys presented significant challenges in terms of their needs and behavior, especially considering that their parents were going through a difficult divorce and were living together for supervision purposes. The household was in constant chaos, with the parents unable to agree on goals or strategies for their boys, and with the involvement of DYFS due to concerns about the mother's mental health. Despite this turmoil, Sheri played a crucial role in keeping the family together during such a trying time. She provided stability when everything else seemed to be in constant flux. Sheri remained composed and assertive in her dealings with both the parents and the boys. She effectively managed her time amidst unreasonable and ever-changing demands. Her relationship with the boys was akin to that of a parent, combining love and firmness when necessary. She knew how to engage in playful and joyful interactions while also setting clear boundaries and expectations. Both boys adored Sheri and relied on her for guidance and support. Her contribution to their behavior modification was invaluable. I was able to communicate with Sheri freely and collaborate with her in her home to brainstorm and devise strategies. She readily offered any assistance necessary to help the boys. Once goals and plans were formulated, Sheri proved highly successful in implementing the strategies. One of the boys had autism, while the other exhibited continuous anger and resentment, seeking negative attention at every turn. Sheri had to confront violence, cursing, yelling, personal insults, disobedience, and the overwhelming weight of their daily schedules, all while trying to ensure they completed their homework and attended to their basic needs within a reasonable timeframe. Every task was a battle for this remarkable Bristol County Nanny, who also had to remain vigilant about the new behavior systems in place and the guidelines I had established for the family. Sheri skillfully incorporated all our discussions, actively participated in family meetings and trainings, and pressed forward, undeterred by the challenges she faced. The parents, too, heavily relied on Sheri during their personal struggles. She maintained her professionalism and personal integrity, never taking things personally and always recognizing the true nature of the situation. Her ultimate goal was to foster a positive environment and provide a reliable structure for the boys to thrive in. In my overall assessment, Sheri has proven herself to be exceptionally efficient, trustworthy, mature, quick-witted, creative, patient, professional, and friendly. She would undoubtedly be an asset to any family, and I wholeheartedly recommend her without reservation.”

She adeptly explained the rationale behind her disciplinary measures and engaged in meaningful conversations to help the child navigate complex social situations. Moreover, Sheri authentically expressed affection and playfulness, nurturing a strong bond between the child and herself. As an added bonus, Sheri also assisted the working parents of my patient by lending a hand with various household tasks. From shopping to scheduling, household organization to personal finance, Sheri tackled these responsibilities with utmost competence. Furthermore, Sheri demonstrated her dependability and accountability by flawlessly maintaining the intricate schedule of my patient.

“As an Elementary School teacher for second grade regular education classroom, I had the opportunity to regularly communicate with Sheri, who served as the after school caretaker for one of my students throughout the 2006-2007 school year. Sheri played a vital role in maintaining consistency and structure for the child under her care, acting as a liaison between the parents and myself. I consistently observed Sheri's responsible nature, as she ensured the child was picked up on time every day and showed genuine interest in his daily progress. Sheri demonstrated a balanced approach by offering praise and positive reinforcement when necessary, while also appropriately discussing consequences when warranted. The care and concern she displayed for the child were evident, and he responded with respect and understanding. In addition to this, I have witnessed how Sheri's role as a Bristol County Nanny has positively impacted the child's academic and social success in school. She diligently oversaw his completion of homework assignments, ensuring they were submitted on time, and encouraged him to listen attentively and follow instructions at the end of each school day. Sheri proved to be an invaluable team member, working alongside myself and the parents to provide the necessary support for this second-grade student. I truly valued our collaborative efforts throughout the school year.”
“Sheri, a caregiver to one of my students named Ryan, started her journey as a Bristol County Nanny with me. With my experience as a former Nanny of 6 children and a Nursery School teacher, I am confident that Sheri possesses the qualities necessary to excel in this role. One admirable trait is how she enthusiastically brings Ryan to school every day and eagerly listens to his stories and progress. She actively involves herself in his day-to-day activities at school and has even volunteered for field trips. Witnessing Sheri interact with children on these trips, I observed her firm yet caring approach that resonates well with them. She effortlessly engages and leads them without needing to demand attention. Seeing her capability and responsible behavior with the children, I felt assured when she was assigned to assist on subsequent trips. Sheri even took on the role of a driver, safely transporting 3 to 4 students without any issue. I am also impressed by how Sheri has supported Ryan's learning journey. She has dedicated time and effort to help him with colors and letters, and I have witnessed their progress throughout the school year. Moreover, Sheri's communication skills are exceptional as she effectively interacts with both children and adults. Additionally, she always presents herself in a professional manner, emphasizing the significance of personal care to the children.
