San Juan County Nanny Sheri's References

“The San Juan County Nanny, Sheri, deserves all the praise I can give her! Originally hired for just a month during a difficult and stressful time for our family, Sheri not only agreed to stay, but she consistently exceeded expectations, making the past year easier for all of us, especially my two sons. Though I know it hasn't always been easy for her to experience our family's ups and downs, Sheri has remained a loving and positive presence throughout. Our children quickly formed a strong bond with her, and she has never let them down, providing warmth and nurturing while also maintaining necessary structure and discipline. Sheri is there for the boys from after school until dinner, guiding them through their homework (which is no small task, given that one of them has a learning disability). I can always rely on her to keep me informed about their lives and pass along any important information from their teachers. Beyond these invaluable qualities, Sheri has a remarkable knack for organization, which has been a true blessing for both the boys and myself. With the numerous appointments and conflicting activities to keep track of, Sheri has tackled the challenge with grace. When the boys are at school, she stays proactive and takes on various tasks for me, including running errands and researching specific questions or potential purchases. (Speaking of purchases, Sheri is an expert at finding great deals and has been incredibly conscientious about our budget!) Her efforts have saved me from immense stress and ensured that I meet deadlines that would have otherwise slipped away.”

“Let me begin by providing some context about why we hired the San Juan County Nanny and our family situation. As a stay-at-home dad, I had to go back to work due to my divorce, as well as my upcoming move to a new residence in September. Our initial plan was to have someone full-time in August and then transition to part-time once the kids started school. However, we faced challenges with my eldest son's behavior and emotional issues, which made parenting difficult. The divorce had also caused anger within the household. Despite all of this, Sheri accepted the position and immediately embraced her role as a nanny. During this transitional period, Sheri skillfully provided structure for the children and effortlessly managed the daily logistics of errands, appointments, and school pickups. She maintained regular communication with me through phone calls and emails, and I never had to worry about the safety of my children. Sheri collaborated with an Applied Behavior Analyst (ABA) to implement a reward-based parenting approach to assist my children. She sought guidance from my son's psychologist and therapist to better understand how to handle him. Additionally, Sheri worked with my youngest son's therapist to address his anger resulting from the divorce. Taking all of this into account, Sheri developed an after-school program that not only focused on homework and activities but also allowed them some free time. She even found the time to maintain a clean home, pack their lunches, and prepare dinner. Before leaving for the day, she always kept me informed about the day's events, reviewed homework, and discussed upcoming plans. Thanks to Sheri's dedication and care, my children's behavior has dramatically improved. My eldest son is performing better at school and is more at ease, while my youngest son has shown significant improvement in managing his anger. I attribute a large part of these positive changes to Sheri's affection and attentiveness towards them. Additionally, Sheri went above and beyond her role as a San Juan County Nanny by assuming the responsibilities of a personal assistant. She played a pivotal role in helping me and my wife with various tasks unrelated to childcare. From assisting with our move to a new apartment, meeting with realtors, and shopping for furniture and other necessities, Sheri ensured that the boys had a comfortable and safe living space. She even took charge when we faced issues with our landlord, gathering information from the town and county to support our case and attending court hearings. Throughout the year, we also needed additional help in the evenings and on weekends, and Sheri took the initiative to place ads, screen applicants, conduct interviews, and negotiate salaries. Although I made her believe that I made the final hiring decisions, it was truly Sheri's judgment that led us to find someone as dedicated and caring as herself. Unsurprisingly, the new caregiver, just like Sheri, treats this role with genuine love and care for the children. Personally, Sheri became an indispensable personal assistant as she ran errands, managed my daily routine, reminded me of appointments, and took control of tasks that allowed me to focus on my new job. Replacing her will undoubtedly be challenging. Sheri is a dependable and reliable individual who effortlessly handles daily tasks and readily adapts to changes when necessary. She listens to advice from others and effectively translates it into action. Furthermore, she provides sound advice herself but always seeks approval before taking any action. This past year has been difficult for my family, and Sheri has made it easier by assuming daily household chores such as making lunches, cooking dinner, doing the children's laundry, upkeeping the apartment's cleanliness, and handling grocery shopping. Most importantly, she has been a source of comfort, guidance, and occasionally discipline for my children. Her exceptional qualities make her truly remarkable, and I wholeheartedly recommend her.”

“San Juan County Nanny: Choosing a childcare provider is a crucial decision for parents, as they seek a safe and nurturing environment for their children. Thankfully, I have been incredibly lucky to have found Sheri to care for my kids! She has truly been a blessing. In March 1997, my husband and I interviewed Sheri through a nanny agency for the responsibility of looking after our three children. At that time, they were ages 6 months, 3 years, and 6 years. We needed someone to watch them for 3 days a week, approximately 10 hours a day. From the moment we met Sheri, we could tell she would seamlessly fit into our family. She quickly built a connection with my three-year-old, as they sat together, engrossed in a book. Sheri has a remarkable ability to offer warmth, encouragement, and comfort to my children by tapping into her own inner child. Often, you'll find her sitting on the floor, engaging with them at their level. They thrive on her playful spirit and undivided attention. Sheri willingly participates in childhood games like hide-and-seek, Chutes and Ladders, and cards. It's amusing how she approaches the 10th game of Candy Land with the same enthusiasm as the first! Over the course of the eight years she has been with us, Sheri has adapted her interactions with the children as they grew. With incredible skill, she addressed the needs of my 6 month old, managing various situations like illnesses, diaper changes, and meal preparation. In 1999, my child from the Qui-nai-elt Village was diagnosed with ADHD. Sheri provided him with the extra patience and guidance he required. She even adhered to a special diet, eliminating foods with preservatives, artificial colors, and flavors. When he needed therapy sessions, she dutifully drove him to the appointments. She has also played a role in boosting my daughter's confidence as she transitioned into her pre-teen years. From offering hairstyle suggestions, helping with outfit choices, to providing advice, Sheri has been an invaluable mentor. She is an exceptional and dynamic individual who truly adores children!

In addition to her childcare responsibilities, Sheri efficiently handles regular household chores such as laundry, dishwasher handling, light vacuuming, tidying up, preparing nutritious school lunches, grocery shopping, cooking dinners, and even baking mouth-watering desserts. Sheri goes above and beyond by recognizing when additional effort is required and takes the initiative to accomplish it. For example, while unloading groceries, she efficiently cleans out the refrigerator and wipes down the shelves, leaving an overall cleaner appearance. Sheri actively participates in the children's activities and engages with them. During the summer season, Sheri accompanies the children for their swimming lessons. In order to encourage my son's confidence in diving off the board, Sheri fearlessly jumped into the deep end to ensure him that she would be nearby if he needed any assistance. She also attends the kids' school plays and concerts, drives them to and from scouting events, and is always there to assist them with their homework when they face difficulties. What the children fondly refer to as the playground is the one Sheri takes them to, where they enjoy their time to the fullest."Sheri's Playground"San Juan County Nanny is the preferred choice for many mothers in the neighborhood because she feels it is the safest playground around with open areas to watch all the children at once.

In times of childhood illnesses, Sheri goes above and beyond to assist in nursing the children back to health. She will accompany them to the doctor if needed and can be relied upon to administer their medicine. I vividly remember when my son had pneumonia, Sheri stayed by his side, ensuring she could respond promptly to his needs. She engages the children in restful, quiet games to prevent them from getting bored. While we have been fortunate to have good health, Sheri has proved invaluable in handling colds, the flu, conjunctivitis, ear infections, stomach ailments, and even during recovery from surgery. When it comes to family vacations, Sheri was always there to lend a helping hand. She meticulously planned our entire trip to Florida, providing us with a detailed itinerary of events. Her knowledge of the Disney theme parks was instrumental in ensuring we made the most of our vacation! Whether it was at water parks or the shore, Sheri was vigilant in keeping a careful eye on the children, allowing my husband and me some much-needed couple time. To sum it all up, Sheri has truly been a blessing to our family. She has given us countless worry-free hours of childcare. Her dependability, dynamic nature, creativity, and love for fun have brought out the best in our children and shown them innovative ways of learning. Thanks to Sheri's positive influence, my children are growing into confident and secure individuals.”

“In December of 1999, we had the pleasure of meeting Sheri, who became Holly's nanny in San Juan County. Our daughter, Rachel, and Holly quickly became close friends and began having sleepovers regularly. During these occasions, Sheri would always be there at Holly's house, taking care of the children. We had complete confidence in Sheri's abilities and knew that Rachel was in safe hands. Sheri consistently proved to be reliable and responsible, earning Rachel's affection with her infectious energy and enthusiasm.”

“I first met Sheri in 1988 when my full-time Nanny, who also happened to be Sheri's cousin, introduced us. At the time, my older daughter, Alesandra, was 2 years old, and my youngest daughter, Danielle, had just been born. Sheri started working for me as a substitute on the days off and vacations of my regular Nanny, Louise. This arrangement continued throughout 1989 until Louise had to leave her position. At that point, I decided to hire Sheri as my full-time nanny for San Juan County. And let me tell you, she was simply fantastic! Sheri was incredibly caring, patient, and helpful. Both of my daughters eagerly awaited her arrival each day. Not only did she excel at taking care of my children, but she also assisted with tasks like changing diapers, feeding, playing, and even helping with grocery shopping and light errands. I had complete trust in her, including allowing her to drive my children in her car. Sheri even joined us on our boat and beach vacations during the summer. Unfortunately, when my mother permanently moved in with us, I no longer required a full-time nanny. This meant saying goodbye to Sheri, and it was a bittersweet moment for all of us. She truly was an amazing person, and I'm grateful that she was a part of our lives.”

“Sheri has been my closest and most cherished friend for 24 years. She is simply one of a kind, and once you get to know her, you can't help but love her. Her caring and selfless nature is unparalleled, especially when it comes to taking care of children. I have never met someone so giving and affectionate. It doesn't matter if she knows you well or not, there is nothing she wouldn't do for you. Growing up with a single mother, Sheri played a vital role in raising her younger siblings. She dedicated a significant amount of her time to them, and now she continues to do the same with her 11-year-old niece. It's not just a responsibility for Sheri; she genuinely enjoys spending time with children. Witnessing the bond she shares with the three children she currently cares for in San Juan County is truly amazing. They adore her wholeheartedly. Being a San Juan County Nanny is not just a job for Sheri; it is a source of joy and fulfillment. She immerses herself in every minute spent with the children, constantly engaging them in various activities. Whether it's creating crafts, painting, playing games, or taking them to the local park, Sheri ensures their time together is filled with meaningful experiences. While I may not have children of my own, I can confidently say that Sheri would be one of the very few people I would trust wholeheartedly with their lives. Her love and dedication to children are unparalleled, and anyone fortunate enough to have Sheri care for their little ones would truly be blessed.”

Witnessing her interactions and entrusting my children's safety to her has only reinforced my confidence in her abilities. From caring for them in my absence to joining us on family vacations, she effortlessly fulfills her role with a nurturing spirit that may have been influenced by her close relationship with her own mother. Her patience, understanding, and playful nature are always on display, not just with my children, but also with the three other children she previously nannied for. She effortlessly strikes a harmonious balance between being their caregiver and their friend. We often organize play dates, enjoy summer outings to local parks, and engage in various fun activities together.

“I had the opportunity to meet Sheri in the fall of 2006 while working with a client. At that time, I was called in by the Division of Youth and Family Services to provide behavioral consultation and parent training for a family in San Juan County. Sheri was the nanny for the family's two boys, aged 8 and 11 years old. The boys presented particularly challenging needs and behaviors, compounded by their parents' divorce and the requirement for them to live together for supervision purposes. The household was in disarray, with the parents struggling to agree on goals and methods for the boys, and involvement from DYFS due to concerns about the mother's mental health. During this trying period, Sheri played a crucial role in keeping the family from completely unraveling. She remained a constant figure amidst ever-changing variables, demonstrating calmness and assertiveness with both the parents and the boys. Despite facing unreasonable and constantly shifting demands, Sheri managed her time effectively. Her relationship with the boys was akin to that of a parent, as she showered them with love while also maintaining clear boundaries and expectations. The boys adored her and sought her guidance and support. Sheri proved invaluable in implementing behavior modification strategies for the boys. I was able to freely communicate with her, receiving information and meeting with her at her home for brainstorming and collaboration. She provided whatever support was necessary for the boys. Once goals and plans were established, Sheri successfully executed the strategies. One of the boys was on the autism spectrum, while the other harbored deep anger and resentment, constantly seeking negative attention. Sheri had to navigate through instances of violence, cursing, yelling, insults, and disobedience, all while managing their demanding schedules, completing homework, and ensuring they were adequately fed and showered on time. It was a constant battle for Sheri, but she remained steadfast in being well-versed in the new behavior systems and the guidelines set forth. She incorporated our discussions with great diligence, attending family meetings and trainings, and making progress despite the numerous challenges. The parents themselves heavily relied on Sheri during their own personal struggles, yet she maintained her professionalism and personal integrity. She never took things personally and consistently acknowledged the situation for what it was. Her objective was always to foster a positive environment and establish a reliable structure for the boys to thrive in. Overall, I found Sheri to be highly efficient, reliable, mature, quick-thinking, creative, patient, professional, and friendly. Any family would greatly benefit from Sheri's presence, and I wholeheartedly recommend her without reservation.”

“Sheri was the San Juan County Nanny for one of the children I cared for. She exhibited exceptional proficiency in handling the child's challenging emotions and behavior. Whenever the child became upset, she skillfully employed firm boundaries, clear consequences, and even humor to restore calmness. Sheri always took the time to explain her disciplinary actions and engage in conversations about intricate social scenarios that the child found challenging. Moreover, Sheri formed an affectionate and playful bond with the child, fostering a deep connection between them. She also extended her assistance to the child's working parents by helping with various household chores. Apart from grocery shopping, Sheri diligently performed tasks related to scheduling, household organization, and managing personal finances. Furthermore, Sheri proved to be highly responsible and reliable in managing the child's complex schedule. Based on my observations, I firmly believe that Sheri would bring immense value to any family in need of exceptional childcare services.”

“As an Elementary School teacher, I have had the pleasure of interacting with Sheri, the after school caretaker of a student in my second grade regular education classroom. Throughout the 2006-2007 school year, Sheri played a vital role in establishing consistency and structure for the child under her care, acting as a liaison between the parents and myself. I consistently observed Sheri's responsibility in picking up the child each day and her genuine interest in knowing how his day had progressed. She effectively provided praise and positive reinforcement when necessary, while also addressing appropriate consequences when warranted. It was evident in both situations that Sheri's caring nature resonated with the child, fostering respect and understanding. Moreover, I have witnessed Sheri's positive impact as a San Juan County Nanny, helping the child to achieve academic and social success in school. She diligently ensures that he completes homework assignments on time and encourages him to listen and follow directions upon leaving school. Sheri has been an invaluable team member, together with myself and the parents, in offering continuous support to this second grade student. Working with her in this capacity throughout the school year has been greatly appreciated.”

“I established a connection with Sheri when she began working as a caregiver to one of my students, Ryan, in San Juan County. With my experience as a former Nanny of 6 children and a Nursery School teacher, I can confidently say that Sheri possesses all the necessary qualities to excel as a San Juan County Nanny. One notable trait is her commitment to bringing Ryan to school every day and her genuine interest in his daily experiences and progress. Sheri goes above and beyond to engage in Ryan's day-to-day affairs at school and has even volunteered her assistance on field trips. It was during these outings that I had the opportunity to witness Sheri's exceptional interaction with children firsthand. She struck a perfect balance between firmness and compassion, engaging in wonderful playtime with the kids. Sheri's natural leadership abilities captivate children's attention effortlessly, and they respond enthusiastically to her. After our initial field trip together, I felt completely at ease knowing she would be assisting Ryan's class on future outings. Sheri demonstrated remarkable capability and responsibility in her interactions with the children, even taking on the role of a driver on multiple occasions. She ensured the safety and well-being of 3 to 4 students during these trips. Additionally, I am thoroughly impressed by Sheri's dedication in helping Ryan with his learning journey. She has invested considerable effort in teaching him colors and letters, resulting in tangible progress throughout the school year. Apart from these significant attributes, Sheri's effective communication skills and her emphasis on personal care make her an ideal caregiver for children. She communicates effortlessly with people of all ages, be it children or adults, and maintains a consistently presentable appearance. Writing this letter of recommendation for Sheri is an honor, as she truly is an outstanding Nanny who any family would be fortunate to have in their lives.”
