About Sheri

Experience: 20 yrs

With over 20 years of childcare experience, I know great care goes beyond supervision--it's about truly supporting children and their families. I hold a Master's degree in Psychology with a specialization in Child Development and Applied Behavioral Analysis, bringing both warmth and evidence-based understanding into the home. My background includes live-in and live-out nanny roles, daycare, and behavioral health. I'm comfortable providing focused one-on-one care, helping children reach developmental milestones through play, routine, and positive guidance. I'm patient, creative, and approachable, and I enjoy outdoor play, crafts, board games, and educational activities. I prioritize clear communication with parents and confidently reinforce household rules with kindness and structure. I have reliable transportation, and I'm happy to assist with carpooling, travel, swimming supervision, and daily activities. I bring a calm, nurturing presence and would love to connect.

Sheri was amazing. I must say. I was so nervous to go this route (CARE.com) and considering my Ro never has been left with a stranger. So needless to say I was a wreck. Ro is a 4 month 4 week old bundle of joy. He is full of life and laughs, smiles and of course whimpers (because of teething). Sheri was great from the beginning. Sheri was dependable she was early everyday which was Friday, Saturday, and Sunday evenings. We were visiting New Orleans from Memphis for the 4th of July holiday weekend. That was the first time Ro has traveled and I didn't know what to expect from him. But he took to Sheri very well. They played and laughed and talked. Sheri kept me updated throughout the evening on Ro's status and even sent picture messages. I immediately felt at ease. I would most definitely recommend her to anyone that is looking for a sitter. When I come back to NOLA I will be using Sheri's services again. I wish I could have packed her in my suitcase and brought her back to Memphis. Sheri= AWESOME
