To Whom it May Concern, I am pleased to recommend Maria for a nanny position. I have had the opportunity to know and work with Maria in our church Christian Education program for over 4 years. I can confidently say Maria is caring, dependable and trustworthy. She has a genuine affection for children and strives to care for all. I have witnessed her patience and attentiveness as she works with the youngest in our program. She is consistently calm and nurturing; guiding the children as they partake in an activity, listen to a story, or transition back to church. Maria is adaptable, adjusting to changes in routine calmly, keeping in mind sudden changes need to be handled patiently and productively. She is sensitive to our children’s needs, noticing when something is different and will adjust accordingly. As a nanny, I believe she will be a engaging partner in the care and comfort of the family who employs her, embracing the parents’ style and use clear and prompt communication. Please contact me by phone or email with any questions. Sincerely, Lynn
