Sherry O is and amazing professional and person. As a professional she is very professional and does her job in accordance to how is supposed. She follows instruction and focuses on the task positioned to her. My experience with Sherry was undoubtedly amazing as she looked after my parents very well. As a person, she's caring, intuitive, compassionate and very dedicated. I would overwhelmingly recommend her to you because she will not disappoint you in any way. Regards, Alex Guloba

Sherry is the lovely, caring, great smile, and kind hearted. She's reliable, organised and a great cook. She met all the needs of my household member when my mom was ill while emotionally supporting me. She looked after my mother to the highest standards and helped nurse her back to full health. I was grateful for her support during this difficult time. Will definitely use her services again in future and highly recommend her.
