Erin was great! She got us in quickly and did a thorough check on the entire family. She even helped my 7 year old work through her anxiety about the treatment.

Denise B

Erin was amazing! Very sweet and kind while I was stressing over it all! Very informative and helpful to ease my mind about next steps! I highly recommend her!! Praying we dont ever need her services again, but if we do, I definitely won't wait and spend tons of money on over the counter treatments!

Gerrick Hale

This has been a problem that we have been dealing with on and off for a while. I reached out to Lice Nanny and they got both of my girls a same day appointment. Everything was explained including after treatment and how their mother could be treated since she did not come to the appointment. I even learned some things about lice that I never knew. I hope I never have to use her again but I highly recommend her if you need this service.

Adina Kruppa

Lice Nanny was great! Responsive, flexible, and continued to help after.

Sarah Butler

Erin is super efficient and nice, and the price was amazing. I also love how their is a chalk board for kids to play with while waiting for others.

Jodi Calmes

For a situation that’s definitely not the greatest, we had a wonderful experience. Erin was professional, kind, and put us at ease throughout the entire process. Most importantly, they completely got rid of my daughter’s lice. I’m so grateful for their help and would highly recommend them to anyone.

Michaela Allen

I sent the lice nanny pictures of my daughter’s hair because I thought she had lice. She was able to confirm it was just product build up! Saved me a lot of money and a trip, but definitely would use her if we ever run into lice in the future. She was super sweet and quick to respond and you can tell she really cares about her customers!

Could not recommend Cincinnati Lice Nanny enough! Excellent empathetic customer service from start to finish. Very few businesses demonstrate this level of care and service

Great experience! Erin was quick to respond and got us in for an appointment the same day. All 4 family members were screened and treated in less than 45 minutes. She was friendly and informative and gave us instructions regarding what's needed (and not) in order to treat lice. Highly recommend!

Brittaney Gonzalez

Erin was amazing! I called her at night and she got us in quickly the next day and was even able to accommodate a last minute schedule change. We were treated two months ago and have been lice free for two months even though it’s still going around the school. Thankful this place exists!

holly culp

Erin was wonderful in a very uncomfortable situation. From the moment I called she got us in immediately and talked us through everything we needed to do. She turned a situation that seems so daunting into a very manageable and almost pleasant experience. I learned so much in talking with her while our family was being treated which made me feel so much better!
Highly recommend!

Preeti Choudhary

Erin was GREAT! She not only took care of our problem the same day we called, she also provided much needed reassurance afterwards. Furthermore, she saved me days of cleaning and recleaning by educating me on how these creatures actually survive (and don’t). Highly recommend for the thoughtful care and piece of mind we received!

Shane F

Excellent service.
Erin was able to treat us in one appointment, on short notice, same day.
She was very helpful, and gave us the information we needed to follow up at home.
All clear in one quick visit. Highly recommend.

Erin was AMAZING! She treated the whole family within hours of calling! She was super knowledgeable and friendly. She made my 6 year old comfortable and able to be herself which is definitely a plus. She gave us great advice and sent us home with follow up treatment and confidence in getting rid of this. She truly turned a super stressful situation into nothing and made it manageable for us. It was a great experience. I would recommend her to anyone! Thanks Erin!!!

Sarah Kessler

I highly recommend this service. We tried over the counter treatment, but it didn't work. Erin was recommended by our child's teacher. When I called, Erin answered all my questions and was able to schedule us that day. She checked the whole family (4 of us) and treated everyone that had lice within one hour. Erin is very experienced and knew a lot about lice research and treatment. She was wonderful to work with and very kind. The treatment worked well and we were very happy. I would recommend her to anyone.

Lisa Kuhns

Erin was recommended to us by a friend and we've since learned that several other families we know swear by her. Count us in that camp, too: Erin is amazing!!!! She met us immediately when I called and took care of our entire family of 4 right then, providing take-home kit with the followup treatment to do at home. In addition to all of this, Erin also provided lots of useful, fact-based information about lice, how they are (and are not) spread, and what to do. It was a relief to learn that we didn't have to wash everything in our house or quarantine items for 2 weeks. Because lice can't live off of a human head long enough to reproduce it's not necessary to take all those extreme cleaning measures. We followed Erin's simple instructions and the treatment worked!! Erin was also very available for questions after the fact. I can't recommend her highly enough! For both taking care of the lice and for providing education and peace of mind, the cost was worth it. We will definitely go back to Erin if we're ever hit with lice again in the future!

Highly recommend coming here if your family is dealing with lice. Shannon was great with my kids and actually made a stressful situation a positive and pleasant experience!

Heidi Lahart

My daughter and I made a same day appointment with the lice nanny. Lice is not fun, but Shannon made the treatment experience great. She was knowledgeable, quick, and very empathetic. I am so appreciative of her and the Lice Nanny Service.

Monique Navarro

My family and I had an outstanding experience with The Lice Nanny, and much of that was thanks to Shannon's exceptional care and expertise. Shannon was incredibly thorough, knowledgeable, and friendly throughout the entire process. She took the time to clearly explain the facts about lice, educate us on what to watch for, and provide practical guidance on how to be proactive in the future.Since this was our family's first experience dealing with lice, Shannon's ability to educate and reassure us made a stressful situation much easier to manage. She helped remove much of the stigma surrounding lice and empowered us with knowledge and confidence.One of Shannon's greatest strengths is her attention to detail. She carefully checked every member of our family and gave us tremendous peace of mind by confirming that most of us were lice-free while also recommending preventative treatment as an added precaution. For my child who did have lice, Shannon was meticulous in ensuring every trace was removed, allowing us to move forward with confidence knowing the issue had been fully addressed.Shannon's professionalism, expertise, and compassionate approach turned an overwhelming experience into a positive one. I would highly recommend The Lice Nanny—and especially Shannon—to anyone dealing with lice. The investment is absolutely worth the peace of mind that comes from knowing the problem has been resolved thoroughly and effectively.

Rebecca Nore

The lice nanny answered all my questions and allowed me to send pictures multiple times to ask for help and advice. She is absolutely wonderful and an incredible person! 10/10

Kim Smith

The Lice Nanny was so quick to reply to my message and so kind and helpful! She offered to have me just send in pictures to save me a trip in and within minutes had reviewed and replied! She said we didn’t need to come in and confirmed it wasn’t lice which was such a relief! I was so grateful for her expertise and kindness and saving me a trip 🧡

I called at 8pm on a Friday in a panic because I found lice on my kids. Erin was so kind and calm and set us up immediately. The pricing is fair given the service rendered. It may seem pricey but we couldn’t have managed on our own. Shannon was so sweet and thorough and made sure every last knit was dealt with. Highly recommend although I hope we never need them again 😉

DO NOT WAIT TO CALL THEM. I thought I could handle this on my own and a week later and loads of $$ later I finally admitted I needed help and called the Lice Nanny. They were so easy to coordinate appts for all of our family members and the treatment took an hour for all of us and my kids with super sensitive hair didn’t even flinch during the treatment. It was crazy easy, fast and affordable. I will never wait again!!!

Faith Palmer

We had Josie and she was absolutely amazing! Very informational and kind and handled everything amazing and calmly.

Molly Zwelling

Had a panic when I saw my had lice. Found the Lice Nanny quickly and they scheduled us just an hour later. Everything about them is great- the customer service, how quick they responded and got us in, the instructions on what we needed to do post treatment. It was an A+. I hope we don't have another lice episode, but if we do I'd call the Lice Nanny! 🙂

So helpful and discreet. Took care of me and my kids quickly and kindly, can’t recommend enough!

She is so sweet and gave me information on what steps I need to take with our situation. She followed up with me to see how things were going.

I called at 4:15 on a Friday, and they got us in at 4:45. Treatment was extremely effective. They were very friendly and knowledgeable! Highly recommend!!

CourtneyHeinmiller

Erin was super quick to respond and got us in the same day. She was kind and answered all my questions and concerns. Her staff was kind and knowledgeable as well. If we ever need treatment again (hopefully not) Lice Nanny will be my first call!

Sarah Hughey

We were able to get an appointment quickly. They were friendly and so knowledgeable! They even jumped in and chatted with the school when there were questions about the treatment/efficacy. I hope we don’t have this issue again but if we do The Lice Nanny will be my first call.

Trevor Robson

If you have a lice problem in your household, I highly recommend the Lice Nanny!

We found out my youngest child had lice, so we treated everyone in the family with over the counter lice shampoo. We went through that process at home, only to find out my youngest still had lice 2 weeks later. So, we reached out to Erin with Lice Nanny, and were able to get an appointment same day for the whole family. The staff who treated us were very nice and the whole environment and process was very easy and judgement free. They also found lice on my head since they check your entire household. We followed the directions they gave us to perform an at home follow up treatment exactly 1 week later for both myself and my youngest, and their product has worked wonders for us. I hope we don’t have to go through lice in our household again, but if we ever do, we will be using Lice Nanny.

Sarah Gigliello

Erin was able to fit me in same day after my initial phone call to her. She and her team were so professional and helpful. Super efficient process and my kids couldn’t not believe how easy it all was compared to prior experiences elsewhere. If we ever need lice services again (ugh), Erin would surely be my first call!

Heidi S

Erin was very sweet and helpful. We did not have an appointment but she went out of her way to accommodate us. After treatment, she followed up and checked on us a few times, which was appreciated. Highly recommend The Lice Nanny!

LaRose Daniels

This place is so amazing and affordable! Erin answered all my questions and gave me clear instructions on what to do. I would definitely recommend!

Menachem W

I'm very satisfied. Good work, good communication, and good follow-up.

Angela Werner

We had a great experience with the Lice Nanny! We were surprised to hear that one of our kids had lice and we didn’t have any experience with it. Rather than taking the time to treat all of us at home, we called Erin and she got us in on the same day. We were in and out of their convenient location in about an hour. Yes, it’s not cheap but, it’s worth the piece of mind! Most of the traditional lice advice was not necessary to adhere to and we were able to move on to our normal activities right away. Lexy and Ethan who worked on our hair were professional and knowledgeable! Erin is also very quick to respond to follow up questions!

Jessica Sargent

They were very nice and flexible, they provided an at home treatment that was very simple and easy to use and did a fantastic job! I would highly recommend their services and if needed will definitely go back again!

Solveig Wells

Aaryn Rubin

The Lice Nanny was quick, professional, and kind. She’s committed to ensuring she’s supportive and effective in ridding lice from the family! After using other resources in town, I’m glad to have finally found her!

Ry Hand

Erin was so knowledgeable and accessible. She responded quickly to my call and was able to get us in that day! She was gentle and calmed my daughters and me down so much as we were very nervous. We HIGHLY recommend Erin and although we hope we never have lice again, we know it wouldn’t be so bad because we have her!!

Becky Schmidt

Having lice in the house is so stressful and put me in panic mode, but Erin calmed all my nerves and helped educate me on what really needed to be done to eliminate these pests. She responded quickly, we got an appointment that day, and she was so efficient. My whole family of 5 was treated and in and out of her office in about an hour. I’m so happy we saw Erin, bc I missed so many nits at home while combing through my kids hair. If you have the unfortunate experience of lice in the house, give the Lice Nanny a call! You won’t regret it.

Oriana C

Erin was so sweet and understanding. She was willing to work with us and our schedule and emergencies on short notice to ensure my family was taken care of. We truly didn't expect how quick and efficient she was. Thank you so much Erin!
