To Whom it May Concern, This is a letter to make your childcare decision a very easy one. It is a letter of recommendation for Harry van Steijn. If you’ve had the good fortune to find Harry in your childcare searching, you can be done searching. He will likely be above-and-beyond anyone else you will meet or interview. Harry van Steijn is an extremely caring, patient, detail-oriented person. His extensive training and experience in childcare made him an obvious choice when we were seeking care of our [then] 1.5 yr old and 5 yr old. He has been caring for our children for 8 months now, and I hope to keep him until we move. [We typically move every 2-3 yrs for work reasons.] I will be VERY sad to leave Harry when that day comes. His relationship with our son and daughter are so special – both kids love him to pieces and run to him happily each time he arrives. I so appreciate his energy level for playtime and outdoor adventures. Above and beyond: He takes very detailed notes and creates personal journals for each child. He brings craft ideas and supplies to keep kids happy and busy. He encourages learning and exploration; teaching and tracking age-appropriate activities. Please, do not hesitate to call me with any questions or just to hear the sincerity in my voice as I re-convey my appreciation for our care-giver and family friend, Harry. Cheers!
