About Mattea

Reviewed on 7/5/2024

I am writing to provide a professional reference for Mattea D., who was my child’s infant classroom teacher in Lincolnshire, IL for about 6 months. Mattea has been an integral part of my child's early development and has consistently demonstrated exceptional skills and dedication in her role. My child had such a special bond with Mattea and was visibly excited to see her each morning. Mattea has a unique ability to create a nurturing and stimulating environment that is ideal for infants' growth and learning. Her approach to childcare is both compassionate and professional, ensuring each child receives personalized attention and care tailored to their individual needs. I have observed Mattea fostering a warm and supportive atmosphere where children feel safe, valued, and encouraged to explore their surroundings. As a parent, it was reassuring to leave my child in Mattea’s care due to the care and attention she provided in her room. In addition to her nurturing demeanor, Mattea possesses strong organizational skills and a deep understanding of early childhood development principles. She effectively plans and implements age-appropriate activities that promote cognitive, social, and emotional development in infants. My child learned so much through the interactive activities she participated in each day. In particular her communication skills – both verbal and sign language accelerated while in Mattea’s room. Mattea communication skills are exemplary, keeping parents informed about their child's progress and milestones through regular updates and meaningful interactions. She would keep us up to date throughout the day through pictures and messages in the School’s app and with in-person updates during drop off an pick up. Mattea consistently exhibits reliability and a genuine passion for early childhood education. Her commitment to creating a positive learning environment and her ability to form strong bonds with children and their families make her an asset to any childcare facility. I wholeheartedly recommend Mattea without reservation. She has made a lasting impact on my child's development, and I am confident that she will continue to excel in her future endeavors in early childhood education. Please feel free to contact me
