• Marci Smith, New Orleans, LA, 214-681-9825, 03/31/2016, I am writing to you in reference to Kathryn Martell. Kathryn has been in my employ as a babysitter for the last 6 months attending to our 2-year-old son. She has been a very engaging and reliable babysitter and our son has greatly benefited from his time with her. Kathryn has been very pro active in creating an atmosphere for our son with lots of activities like outside playtime, reading books, coloring, and walking to the park. In addition to caring for our son Kathryn takes complete ownership of the house during the time that she is babysitting. She goes above and beyond helping with laundry, dishes, walking the dog, and taking the trash out, all of which she does of her own accord. It has been such a nice surprise to come home and have these household duties tended to in addition to her caring for our son. Kathryn is a wonderful young woman with a kind heart that has a great ability in relating to children. She takes her position as a babysitter very seriously and gives her all. We have greatly appreciated all her hard work and feel that she would be a wonderful asset to your child-care team. Please feel free to call if you would like to discuss her application further.
• Terri Massett, Metairie, Louisiana, (504) 905-3306, 04/05/2016, I am writing this letter in reference to Kathryn Martell. Kathryn has been our family’s primary babysitter for over 6 years. Our 11 year old son has a muscle delay and has severe food allergies, some which are critical. We have always been extremely particular in regards to whose care we left our son under on any occasion. Kathryn is extremely responsible, reliable, loving and a very hard worker. Her personality is contagious; she is very funny and always comes up with creative ways to keep our son entertained. Our son adores her as do my husband and I. We consider Kathryn as part of our extended family. I would highly recommend Kathryn to anyone looking for child care for his or her child/children. I would be happy to answers any questions if need in regards to this recommendation.
• Christy Little, Metairie, La., (504) 884-6005, 04/05/2016, My name is Christy Little and I am a Special Education teacher for the Jefferson Parish Public School System, with 28 years of experience. As a family friend, I have known Kathryn for over 10 years. She has volunteered her time to assist me at Special Olympic events and Games Uniting Mind and Body (events for school-age children with orthopedic and visual disabilities). Furthermore, I’ve had the opportunity to observe Kathryn in many social settings. I believe as an educator, I am very sensitive to the needs of children. Over the years I have seen the instant connection Kathryn has with young children. Her energetic excitement to engage and entertain young children is genuine. Her connection is so real and natural, that I have seen parents offer her baby-sitting/child-sitting jobs after knowing her for just a few minutes. As an educator with 28 years of experience, I know Kathryn would be an asset to any child care program. I have witnessed her enthusiasm and willingness to entertain and supervise children, along with her care-taking qualities to handle infant and toddlers. If you have any questions, I would be happy to assist.
• Cherri Desporte, 4520 Williams Blvd. N104, Kenner, La., 70065, 504-339-6672, Cherridesporte@yahoo.com, 04/05/2016, I am writing this letter of recommendation for Kathryn Martell. I have known Kathryn now for about 8 years. She has been a sitter for my 2 Special Needs children who both have Autism and one also has Multiple Disabilities. My boys have many different issues and Kathryn has learned over time how to deal with each of them. She even Tube Feeds one of them. I really feel that she would be an asset to Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines in the child care program. She is very energetic, reliable, caring, helpful & loving young lady. I really believe that working with my children has helped her and opened up her mind to working with children with all different needs. If you would need anything else please feel free to contact me.
