Dear Parent,
It is my pleasure to write a letter of recommendation for Hamdi Eslaquit. My son started with Hamdi when he was four months old and stayed with her until he was 2 ½ and he started pre-school. Initially, the thought of going back to work and leaving my child with someone else terrified me. But, when I met Hamdi she immediately eased all my tension. I can honestly say I never once worried for his safety or questioned the quality of care he was given. Hamdi is a very warm and loving person and this is reflected in the manner in which she cares for the children in her home. She is a very open and easy person to talk to and I always felt like she genuinely loved my son. When I got pregnant with my second son I was thrilled that I didn’t have to go through the childcare search again. I had Hamdi!
I have recommend Hamdi to my friends on several occasions without hesitation. Hamdi provides a wonderful, loving, environment with lots of colors, toys and stimulation. She provides individual one-on-one attention to all the children she cares for with the aid of her two assistants. She is always very flexible and understanding of working parents changing needs.
We just moved away and I cried at the thought of leaving Hamdi and having to find a new home day care. In my new search every one I met I compared to her. I really feel that both my sons have benefited from being in her care.
If you would like to talk further, please feel free to call me at 703-948-0079. I really cannot say enough good things about Hamdi Eslaquit and the home day care business she runs.
Sincerely,

To Whom It May Concern:
This letter of recommendation is submitted in reference to Mrs. Hamdi Eslaquit and the daycare service that she operates. Our daughter Sarah has been in the care of Mrs. Eslaquit since April of 2002. In that time, in our opinion, Sarah has received the finest care available and our daughter has never been happier or healthier.
Mrs. Eslaquit provides a clean, bright and education-oriented environment for the children, which encourages learning and social interaction. As an elementary schoolteacher, I am convinced that Mrs. Eslaquit’s program will more than adequately prepare our daughter for Pre-School. The personal, one-on-one attention provided by Mrs. Eslaquit and her outstanding staff ensures the children receive the emotional and physical stimulation necessary for a child’s health and happiness.
We are planning to have another child and there is no question as to where he or she will be going for day care when the time comes. Hamdi and her staff are the only ones we trust with our children, next to Grandma!
Please feel free to contact us at (703) 313-7847 or email jujusv@aol.com for additional information.
Sincerely,
Jennifer and Herman Valentine

I can’t imagine having my children, Karynn (3) and Carter (1) anywhere besides Hamdi’s Childcare. Both children have been going to Hamdi’s since they were 3 months old. I knew 3 people that used Hamdi before me, and all highly recommended her (one told me they trusted Hamdi more than they trusted their own parents with their kids!!). When my husband and I interviewed her, we didn’t even look anywhere else! The childcare (the downstairs) is huge, and it’s the perfect environment for kids of any age. One of the many things I love is the fact there is no television down there. Most importantly, taking care of the children is so much more than a job to Hamdi and her assistants. They truly love the kids and become very attached to them, and become part of the family. My daughter learns a great deal at Hamdi’s – so I know it’s a great learning environment rather than just “babysitting”. Both kids look forward to going to Hamdi’s – Carter reaches for them as we walk through the door, and Karynn is often excited to show Hamdi her art, paintings, or newest accomplishments. I feel like Hamdi is another “mom” to Karynn because of their relationship (she sometimes slips and calls me Hamdi and also calls Hamdi “mommy”). Knowing that your children are well taken care of provides total peace of mind – and that’s what you can expect at Hamdi’s Childcare. I would highly recommend everyone using Hamdi – it’s a great environment for you and your child. Feel free to call me with any questions at 703-822-0654.
