🎀 We used Shannon for 3 highly energetic little boys for a couple nights on our trip to Lake Tahoe. Shannon was on time, had a contract prepared for me to confirm the details of our needs, payment, etc. and immediately began playing with the boys. When she came back the 2nd night she even brought prizes to play fun games with them. She was able to roll with it when I mistakenly forgot to order dinner for the kids and even offered to drive to go get them food while the adults got ready. Highly recommend Shannon! We will use her next time we are in Tahoe! Michelle D. July 10, 2022
