"I knew Sharayaha was great but I didn't realize how great she was until she left to pursue other dreams and I had to try to find someone to replace her. Trying on new sitters made me realize that with Sharayaha, I never had to try to come up with things for her and my kids to do together all day- she had that covered. I realized I never had to ask Sharayaha to not surf on her phone while she was with my kids; Sharayaha uses her phone as I do, to look things up and to communicate when needed, not to sit and read it. With Sharayaha I never had to worry that she would feed them junk food all the time. I never had to worry that the kids were not having fun. If you're reading this message and looking for a sitter, Sharayaha is the bee's knees. She's smart, self-possessed, and actually cares enough to help raise your kids. If they're being difficult, she will take the time to try to help them out of it. She's the only sitter I ever heard be stern with my kids and, not coincidentally, the only babysitter I overheard both my sons, on separate occasions, tell that they loved her." -Zoë K., Portland Oregon
Our whole family breathed a huge sigh of relief at our great fortune in hiring Sharayaha Guy as a nanny for our two children, then 5yrs and 7yrs old. It is difficult to put into words how they positively impacted our entire family. First, they were always punctual and dependable. With Sharayaha around, I could release my parental responsibilities and confidently allow them to take over in every capacity of caring for our children. They have knowledge of child development, and set strong yet loving routines and boundaries for our children’s safety and welfare. Sharayaha truly sees each child as an individual and cultivates their unique interests and talents. They bring all of themself to the job; their diverse set of knowledge and expertise enhanced the lives of everyone in our family. From musical skill, to a love of octopuses, baking talent, and a vibrant sense of humor, Sharayaha added vitality to our family. They took time to plan interesting adventures for our children that they still talk about today. We miss Sharayaha tremendously and would hire them again in an instant! -Julie Jansen, Portland Oregon
We highly recommend Sharayaha for childcare/nanny work! Our family worked with Sharayaha as a one-day-a-week nanny for a period of around 8 months, during which time she took care of our 2-year old son and 4-year old daughter. Our kids would look forward to their ”Sharayaha-day” every week, bursting with excitement as she came through our front door. She quickly picked up on their individual personalities and behavioral attributes and was able to work through sibling arguments and challenging toddler behaviors while maintaining an atmosphere of fun and adventure, as well as a positive can-do attitude throughout the day with the kids. They looked forward to their daily walks around the neighborhood with Sharayaha, as well as trips to the library to read books, make believe playtime, and cooking time with her every week. She is thoughtful, caring, sharp, on-time, always kept our house neat and tidy, and took very good care of our kids. - Nicole H., Portland Oregon
Sharayaha nannied my son regularly beginning when he was 9 months old and also jumped in to care for my 5 year old daughter as needed. She is a total ray of sunshine, incredibly competent, responsible, and flexible. She cared for my son both individually and within a nanny share and was able to navigate multiple little charges with no hesitation. Her demeanor with children is wonderful--she is kind, patient and *fun*. As parents, my husband and I very much appreciated how communicative she was and how open she was to adapting to our family parenting styles and ever-shifting feeding and nap schedules. Our family felt very lucky to have Sharayaha on our team. We would be happy to hire her again--she is missed on the West Coast! - Jill Sackett, Portland Oregon
Sharayaha is awesome! Very easy to communicate with, trustworthy, and most of all, great with our two little rascals! Our daughter especially loves when Sharayaha comes over to play. And it gives us peace of mind when we go out, knowing that they are having such a great time.” Dave, Denver Colorado
