Employment Recommendation Letter to Whom

Employment Recommendation Letter

To Whom it May Concern:

This letter is intended to serve as a college admission recommendation for Ms. Jane Doe. I have had the pleasure of knowing Ms. Doe when she worked for us in our home in Galway, Ireland. She was the stay-in nanny cum private teacher for our three children from February of 2007 until December of the following year, except during summers when our children stayed at their grandparent's house. During her stay with us, I was able to assess her and found her to be a wonderful and spirited nanny.

She is a hard worker and prompt person. Her day usually starts with waking up our youngest child, when he was still 3 months old, changing his diapers and feeding him. She would then proceed to cooking breakfast for our older children and attending to light household work. Jane's ability of looking after three children, and at the same time working on some household chores, showed her efficiency in working on multiple tasks.

I was also able to prove how trustworthy and reliable of a person she is as she tirelessly did our grocery shopping and was always there to run for errands and to help us in anything that we needed or asked from her. As I have mentioned earlier, she also worked as a private teacher for my 9-year-old and 12-year-old children. Aside from the usual everyday tutoring, helping them out in their school works, Jane did way beyond what was expected of her. To ensure that the children will better understand their lessons and at the same time make the learning process more enjoyable, she accompanied them to museums and other educational trips which my children truly enjoyed. Her initiative and creativity are one of the things that I am sure will aid her in fulfilling her college aspirations. She was also easy to work and deal with; very cooperative.

She made sure that my children are getting the most of the benefits of physical routines by taking them everyday to their football practice. She also never failed to show the importance she gives to her spiritual health. This, I was able to prove, when she religiously accompanied us to church every Sunday. In this process, she was also able to contribute to my children's spiritual knowledge.

She prepared lunch and dinner and made sure that all three of my children were able to take a bath in the evening. After this routine, she would read to them for an hour, every night. I was able to see the patience and love that Jane has extended to my children. She very patiently taught my youngest child all his shapes and colors during his eighteenth month.

Jane's effort in teaching my children was manifested in ways more than one. My middle child showed drastic improvements in her reading level. She even jumped two reading levels in just one year! My eldest daughter, on the other hand, was able to excel in soccer and in school as well. I must say that my children have become the well-adjust persons that they are now through Jane's help.

One of the best things that Jane did for my family, especially for my children was helping them during one of the toughest times of their lives. In 2006, my children lost their mother. Jane's presence got them through this grieving process. She was not just their nanny, nor just their teacher, but more importantly she became the mother they lost. She generously provided a mother figure for my children. She was there for them during their rough times tirelessly providing her presence, making them feel that everything will be okay, and offering them advices. She was able to significantly contribute to the personality development of my children by giving them a solid sense of security. Because of Jane's help, the effects of such difficult experience (their mother's passing) that my children have gone through became manageable. Despite the loss, my children were still able to excel in school. They received scholastic achievements, particularly, in reading comprehension and mathematics. When my children were placed back to state school after she left, they were academically very well ahead of their age group. She left us this December to pursue her college endeavors.
