Subject: Letter of Recommendation for Lisa Klaus

RE: Tenure as Our Family’s Nanny from 2018 and 2020

Dear Prospective Family Looking for a Nanny to Care for Your Child(ren):

Searching for a caregiver to come into your home daily and care for your child can be such an overwhelming process. In Lisa Klaus, you have found an excellent candidate. Our family has had the privilege to have Lisa care for our daughter (Alma) for over two years – since she was 4 months old. All of us trust her deeply; the ease and delight with which Alma greets her each day, shares her ups and downs with her (most recently potty-training), and reports on the many activities of their day, has always given us great comfort that she is in the most loving hands.

Lisa is an experienced and trained childcare provider, and it has shown in her care of Alma every day over the last two years. Before we hired her, alongside her resume (formal education, ongoing training, experience in school and home settings) and her kind, assuring manner in our interview, we were impressed by our conversation with her former employer who emphasized her integrity and dedication to her work. In getting to know Lisa, it is clear that her chosen profession is her calling. She takes an approach to children rooted in respect for them as individuals. By listening well to their needs and providing choices and limits appropriate to the child’s development, Lisa supports them in their ability to take responsibility for their own feelings and actions.
