LETTER OF REFERENCE

For Lori Stasio, Friends Forever Family Childcare
18 Marique Drive, Lawrence, MA 01843

August 29, 2008

It is my pleasure to write this letter of recommendation for Lori Stasio. My son has been attending Friends Forever Family Childcare since February 2007 and it will be a sad day when we have to leave the school when my son atends kindergarten. Miss Lori has given my son such loving attention and the loving and happy nature of my son is a great testimony to this. I could not have asked for better protection and safety in a daycare. The amount of learning that takes place at the school is amazing as well. My son is more than prepared to start kindergarten in the fall due to all the fun activities she provides to help the kids learn. I also wanted to speak to her enthusiasm for kids. She has built an amazing school around making kids happy and helping them feel special. Miss Lori is creative when it comes to playing with the kids and she understands how important exercise and going outside is to the children as well. She is also incredibly reliable and I would recommend Friends Forever to any parent who is looking for daycare for their child. She truly has been a wonderful teacher and friend to my son and me. She a person we will stay friends with for a long time to come.

Please feel free to contact me if you are considering bringing your child to Friends Forever and have any questions.

I am very pleased with the opportunity to provide reference for Lori Stasio. I first met Lori in January 2007, when I was looking for a place for my twin girls who were 19 months old at the time. Having seen a lot of places and meeting with a lot of providers I was impressed right away with her place - excellent organized, clean, and professionally set. I also liked Lori's personality and friendliness, so I signed for her childcare services without any hesitation.

From the very first day at Friends Forever my girls, Adela and Renee, loved the place, Lori and the other kids. My husband and I were so impressed with Lori's ability to design different projects, arts and crafts, games and educational activities for all the kids!..We wished we had found her earlier (we had gone through several nannies and a couple of daycare centers before). She has so much passion for what she is doing and is so flexible and understanding of everyone's situation : Lori has always tried to accommodate our needs and busy schedules. We never had to worry how the girls are doing and we always found them happy!

I personally have been very impressed how organized Lori is, how clean and orderly her place is, and how good she is at teaching even small children like my daughters - they were talking, singing and drawing better and better everyday! They were saying the names of Lori and the other kids with a smile, looking forward to the days they attended Friends Forever.

With the joy of buying a new house close to work, my husband and I were also very sad that we had to leave Friends Forever. I visited many providers but have not been able to identify anyone as great as Lori with such an excellent and professionally designed place for children to play and learn. We all will miss her very much and I know the girls will miss their friends too. But we hope to stay in touch and visit time to time, because we truly became "friends forever".

It is again my pleasure to recommend Lori as a childcare provider. She has raised the bar for childcare like noone before. She is truly a wonderful person, offering love and compassion, academic curriculum and excellent place to learn, play and develop social skills. I am confident that your child will have the best environment to grow and learn if she/he attends Friends Forever.

Please, do not hesitate to contact me, if you have any questions.
