To Whom It May Concern,

It is my absolute pleasure to write this letter for Chare De Waal, who serves as an Early Childhood Educator at our centre, The Discovery Garden Early Childhood Education, Care and Preschool. During this time, I have had the opportunity to observe Chare's work closely, and I can confidently say that Chare is an outstanding educator whose passion for early childhood development is both inspiring and impactful.

Chare brings warmth, creativity, and professionalism into the classroom every single day. Chare has a natural ability to connect with young children, creating a safe and nurturing environment where each child feels seen, heard, and valued. Through thoughtfully planned activities and child-centered learning experiences, Chare promotes not only cognitive and language development but also social-emotional growth and independence.

What sets Chare apart is her passion and deep understanding of child development and her skill in adapting to the individual needs of each child. Whether supporting a child through a challenging moment or celebrating a milestone, she consistently demonstrates patience, empathy, and a genuine love for teaching.

Chare also works exceptionally well with families and colleagues, always maintaining open communication, a collaborative spirit, and a positive attitude. Chare is dependable, reflective, and always eager to learn and grow professionally.

I wholeheartedly recommend Chare for any position in early childhood education. Any centre or school would be fortunate to have such a dedicated, compassionate, and skilled educator on their team. Please feel free to contact me if you require any additional information.

Sincerely,

RE: Reference for Chare De Waal

To Whom It May Concern

We have absolutely no hesitation in providing a reference for Chare and can highly recommend her to anyone considering her for employment.

We have known Chare for 2 years. Chare allowed us to survive through the Covid lockdowns, looking after our four children, aged 2 through 8 at that time, while my wife and I worked from home. She continued with us after Covid, supporting the children’s return to school campus, and our return to the office.

Chare looked after our children wonderfully, helping the elder ones with their schoolwork and sports and our little ones with cooking and food preparation, creative play, activities and outings and she always did so with energy, patience and kindness. We trust her completely with the children and she is more than capable of handling all the nighttime routines and getting them to bed when we are out. The children love her and often ask when she is coming to look after them again.

In all our interactions she has always been reliable, diligent, communicative, has exceeded expectations with any tasks she was asked to help with, and has always brought a cheerful and happy disposition to her work. She has always acted with honesty and integrity. We have enjoyed having her as part of our family.

Chare would make a wonderful addition to any organisation or team and we have absolutely no hesitation in recommending her.

I would be happy to answer any further questions at the below contact details.

Yours Sincerely,
