“I cannot express enough praise for Sheri, our amazing Lincoln County Nanny. She initially joined our family during a particularly challenging and stressful period for just one month. However, she not only agreed to extend her stay but continuously exceeds expectations in her efforts to make the past year easier for all of us, especially my two sons. Despite the ups and downs of our family life, Sheri remains a loving and positive presence. She quickly bonded with our children, providing them with warmth and care while maintaining the necessary structure and discipline. From after school until dinnertime, Sheri is there for the boys, assisting with their homework, which is not an easy task given that one of our sons has a learning disability. I can always rely on her to keep me informed about their lives and provide me with any updates from their teachers. In addition to these invaluable qualities, Sheri possesses exceptional organizational skills that have been a blessing for both the boys and me. With numerous appointments and conflicting activities to manage, Sheri handles this challenge with grace.

“I want to provide some context regarding the reasons behind hiring the Lincoln County Nanny and our family situation. As a stay-at-home Dad, I needed to return to work due to my impending divorce from my wife. Additionally, I was moving to a new residence in September. Initially, we sought a full-time nanny for the month of August, with the intention of transitioning to part-time once the children started school in September. Our eldest son has behavioral and emotional difficulties, which posed challenges for us as parents. The divorce had also impacted both children, leading to anger within our household. Despite being aware of these circumstances, Sheri willingly accepted the position and immediately dove in. During this period of transition, Sheri provided much-needed structure for the children. She effortlessly managed the daily logistics, including errands, doctor's appointments, and school pickups. Sheri maintained regular communication with me through phone calls and emails, alleviating any concerns I had about the safety of my children. Sheri collaborated with an Applied Behavior Analyst (ABA) to implement a reward-based parenting approach, tailored to my children's needs. 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 stemming from the divorce. Utilizing this knowledge, she developed and implemented an after-school program that involved homework, extracurricular activities, and free time. Despite her demanding schedule, Sheri also managed to keep the house clean, prepare lunches, and cook dinner. Before leaving each day, she made sure to keep me updated on the day's events, review homework, and discuss upcoming plans. Remarkably, my children's behavior has significantly improved under Sheri's care. My eldest son is performing better in school and has become calmer, while my youngest son has overcome his anger and now demonstrates improved behavior. I attribute much of this positive change to Sheri's genuine love and care for them. In addition to her role as a Lincoln County Nanny, Sheri has taken on the role of a personal assistant, assisting both my wife and me. She provided invaluable help during our move to a new apartment, meeting with realtors and shopping for furniture and essentials. As the boys primarily live with me, she played a crucial role in creating a comfortable and secure living environment. When I faced difficulties with our landlord, Sheri took charge, researching information from the town and county to support our case, and even accompanying me to court. Throughout the year, we required additional help with childcare during evenings and weekends. Sheri took charge of placing advertisements, screening applicants, conducting interviews, and negotiating salaries. Although I let her believe that I made the final hiring decision, truthfully, it was her expertise that led us to finding someone who shared her love and dedication to the children. Not surprisingly, in addition to being a nanny, Sheri became a trusted personal assistant, efficiently managing errands, facilitating my daily routine, reminding me of appointments, and shouldering tasks, allowing me to focus on adapting to my new job. Replacing her will undoubtedly be challenging. Sheri is a reliable and dependable individual who effortlessly handles daily tasks while also being adaptable when adjustments are necessary. She is open to advice and effectively translates it into action. Additionally, she is capable of offering valuable advice but always seeks approval before taking any action. Given the difficulties my family faced this year, Sheri has made our lives easier by taking charge of daily chores such as meal preparation, laundry, housekeeping, and grocery shopping. Moreover, she has played the role of a comforting presence, advisor, and at times, disciplinarian for my children. Sheri's exceptional qualities make her truly remarkable, and I highly recommend her.”

“One of the most important choices parents make is selecting a child care provider who can ensure their children are in a safe, caring, and nurturing environment. I am incredibly fortunate to have discovered Sheri as a caregiver for my children in Lincoln County. She has truly been a lifesaver. In March 1997, my husband and I interviewed Sheri through a nanny agency to look after our three children, aged 6 months, 3 years, and 6 years old. We needed someone to watch them for three days a week, around 10 hours a day. Right away, we could tell she would be a perfect fit for our family. She instantly connected with our three-year-old, sitting on the floor and reading a book with him on her lap. Sheri's approach is filled with warmth, encouragement, and comfort, as she taps into her inner child to engage with mine.

She handled all sorts of situations, such as illnesses, diaper changes, and meal preparation, with great skill and care when my youngest was just six months old. In 1999, my child from Rosholt was diagnosed with ADHD. Sheri provided him with the additional patience and guidance he needed, following a special diet that excluded foods with preservatives, artificial colors, and flavors. When he required therapy sessions, she would drive him to the therapist whenever necessary. She even helped my daughter develop confidence and a positive attitude as she transitioned into her pre-teen years, offering guidance on hairstyles, clothing choices, and advice.

Sheri consistently proved to be reliable and accountable in her duties. Rachel developed a strong affection towards Sheri, largely due to her unwavering energy and 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 daughter, Danielle, had just been born. Sheri started working for me as a fill-in for my Nanny whenever she had days off or went on vacation. This arrangement continued throughout 1989 until my Nanny had to leave her position. Consequently, I decided to hire Sheri as my full-time nanny. As our Lincoln County Nanny, she exceeded all expectations by displaying an incredible amount of care, patience, and helpfulness. Both of my daughters eagerly awaited her arrival each day. Sheri effortlessly handled a wide range of tasks, from changing diapers and feeding to playing and even assisting with grocery shopping and running small errands. I had complete trust in her, to the extent that I allowed her to drive my children in her car. She even joined us on our summer vacations, both on our boat and at the beach. However, when my mother moved in with us permanently, and I no longer required a full-time nanny, it was truly heartbreaking to bid farewell to Sheri. She was an extraordinary individual in every aspect, and I am grateful that my family had the privilege of having her in our lives.”

“I have had the pleasure of knowing Sheri for the past 24 years, and she has remained my closest and most cherished friend throughout that time.

When it comes to caring for children, or anyone for that matter, Sheri's selflessness and affectionate demeanor are unparalleled. There is no limit to what she would do for someone, regardless of how well acquainted she is with them. Growing up with a single mother, Sheri took on the role of helping raise her younger brother and sister, displaying an incredible level of dedication. This innate love for nurturing extended to her niece as well, whom she spends a great deal of quality time with even now that she is 11 years old. Witnessing the bond Sheri shares with the three children she currently cares for, it is evident that they hold her in the highest regard.

As opposed to relying on electronic devices to keep them occupied, she actively engages them in various activities such as crafting, painting, playing games, and visiting the local park.

“I had the opportunity to meet Sheri, the Lincoln County Nanny, while working with a client in the fall of 2006. My involvement came as a result of a behavioral consultation and parent training program initiated by the Division of Youth and Family Services for this particular family. At the time, Sheri served as the nanny for two boys, aged 8 and 11, who presented significant challenges in terms of their needs and behavior. Complicating matters further, the parents were in the midst of a divorce but were required to live together for supervision purposes. This created a chaotic household environment, exacerbated by the parents' inability to reach a consensus on goals and approaches for their sons. Additionally, there were concerns regarding the mother's mental health and the involvement of DYFS. During this tumultuous period, I firmly believe that Sheri played a crucial role in holding the family together. She remained a constant presence amidst constantly changing circumstances. Her demeanor remained calm and assertive with both the parents and the boys. Sheri skillfully managed her time, even when faced with unreasonable and ever-changing demands. Her relationship with the boys resembled that of a parent, as she displayed both love and firmness. Sheri had the ability to engage in play and laughter, while simultaneously setting clear boundaries and expectations. It was evident that the boys deeply admired and relied on her for guidance and support. Sheri's contribution to the boys' behavior modification efforts was invaluable. I had regular communication with her, exchanging information and meeting to brainstorm and collaborate. She provided whatever was necessary to assist the boys in their progress. Once I had developed the goals and plans, Sheri admirably implemented the strategies. One of the boys was on the autism spectrum, while the other constantly sought negative attention due to anger and resentment. Sheri bravely confronted acts of violence, cursing, yelling, personal insults, disobedience, and the overwhelming responsibilities of their daily schedules, all while ensuring their completion of homework, meals, and hygiene within reasonable timeframes. Juggling these challenges, the Lincoln County Nanny diligently adhered to the new behavior systems and guidelines established for the family. Moreover, the parents heavily relied on Sheri during their own personal struggles. She managed to maintain her professionalism and personal integrity throughout, refraining from taking things personally and recognizing the nature of the situation. Sheri's primary objective was to cultivate a positive atmosphere and establish a reliable structure for the boys. In conclusion, Sheri exemplifies traits of efficiency, reliability, maturity, quick thinking, creativity, patience, professionalism, and friendliness. She is undoubtedly an asset to any family, and I wholeheartedly recommend her without reservation.”

Sheri excelled in elucidating the rationale behind her disciplinary actions and engaging the child in discussions regarding intricate social situations he struggled with. Moreover, her affectionate and playful demeanor fostered a close bond between the child and herself. Additionally, Sheri extended her assistance to the child's working parents, aiding them with various household tasks such as shopping, scheduling, organizing, and managing personal finances. Furthermore, Sheri demonstrated utmost responsibility and dependability in maintaining the intricate schedule of my patient. Sheri's multifaceted skills make her an invaluable asset to any family.”

“As an elementary school teacher, I had the opportunity to regularly communicate with Sheri, who served as the after school caretaker for a specific student in my second-grade regular education classroom at Lincoln County Elementary School. Throughout the 2006-2007 school year, Sheri played a crucial role in maintaining consistency and structure for the child in her care by acting as a liaison between the parents and myself. I consistently observed Sheri's sense of responsibility as she diligently picked up the child every day and took a keen interest in his progress. She skillfully gave praise and positive reinforcement when necessary while appropriately addressing consequences when warranted. Her nurturing nature was evident in both instances, and the child consistently responded with respect and understanding. It is worth noting that Sheri's impact as a Lincoln County Nanny extended beyond just providing care, as she also contributed to the child's academic and social success in school. She made sure that he completed his homework assignments punctually and encouraged him to listen attentively and follow instructions when leaving school each day. Sheri's collaboration as a vital team member, alongside myself and the parents, offered valuable support to enhance the experience of this second-grade student. I am genuinely grateful for the opportunity to work with her in this capacity throughout the school year.”

“When Sheri began working as a caregiver to my student, Ryan, our relationship started to form. With my experience as a former Nanny and Nursery School teacher, I can confidently say that Sheri has all the qualities necessary to be an exceptional Lincoln County Nanny. One of the things that impressed me the most about Sheri is how she brings Ryan to school every day and actively engages in his progress by eagerly listening to his daily updates. Moreover, Sheri goes above and beyond to involve herself in Ryan's day-to-day activities at school. She has even volunteered on several occasions to accompany the children on field trips. I had the opportunity to witness firsthand how Sheri interacts with children during these outings, and it was truly remarkable. She strikes the perfect balance between firmness and compassion, and the children respond wonderfully to her natural leadership. After our initial field trip together, I entrusted Sheri with another trip for Ryan's class without hesitation. She proved herself to be capable and responsible in her handling of the children, and even took on the role of a dependable driver for multiple field trips. Sheri effortlessly managed transporting three to four students safely to and from the destinations. Another aspect of Sheri's exceptional caregiving skills is how she has assisted Ryan with his learning efforts. She dedicated time and effort to help him master his colors and letters, resulting in significant progress throughout the school year. Additionally, Sheri possesses other important qualities that are essential for caring for children. Her communication skills are truly outstanding; she establishes effective connections with both children and adults. Sheri also prioritizes her personal appearance, taking care to present herself in a neat and presentable manner. Through her actions, she instills in the children the importance of personal care. Overall, I am genuinely confident in recommending someone like Sheri as a fantastic Nanny. Her commitment to excellence and her natural ability to connect with children make her a valuable asset to any family fortunate enough to have her.”
