My son started with Sister Zakiyyah when he was five months old. He
received excellent care, attention, and stimulation even as an infant.  Sister
Zakiyyah had a system that was specifically designed for the needs of my son.
He learned much and the older he got the more advanced he became. He left
when he turned one year old.

 He returned back to A Mothers Touch Learning Center when he was four
years old. Sister Zakiyyah as dedicated as she is would pick him up from my
South Philadelphia home and bring him back home. The curriculum she
developed, again met his needs, was engaging, and age appropriate.

 I would recommend A Mothers Touch Learning Center to any parent who is
looking for quality education in a family like environment!! A Home Away from
Home!!!

 My daughters attended AMTLC when they offered grade school home
schooling, and all I can say is I wish they still did.  They received excellent one
on one attention in a warm and caring home setting.   My children flourished
academically from the tutelage of Zakiyyah Muhammad, owner and operator of
A Mothers Touch Learning Center.  I have nothing but accolades to say about
the school.

 I started looking for child care for my son when he was about 2 years old. I
was overjoyed when I found A Mother's Touch Learning Center. It is unlike 'day
care' facilities in so many ways. Instead of just 'babysitting' the children,
Zakiyyah has a curriculum set up which allowed him to learn so much, even at
a young age. I remember how excited he would get every night when it was
time to do homework. He is now in elementary school and it is great to see
how A Mother's Touch Learning Center has helped him excel academically,
emotionally, and spiritually. I definitely recommend AMTLC to everyone looking
for excellent child care and education for their children.

 When my son went to AMTLC I was just going through a horrible time in my
life. The whole entire experience was the best for my son and me. I am not
sure what I would have done without it. It really helped my son to grow and
cultivate into a better human being. So much that he stills makes mention of it
today! I am grateful to have had AMTLC and I pray that they continue to grow
and flourish impacting the lives of young people... and their families.

 My oldest daughter attended A Mother's Touch Learning Center since she
was 2 and half years old.  Her first week of school, she would cry when it was
time for her to leave.  Zakiyyah not only provided an academic environment but
she helped her with her social skills. She stayed at AMTLC until she was
ready for kindergarten.

 My youngest daughter started at 6 weeks old and also refuses to leave
school now at 2 years old.  My children have learned to be well-mannered and
caring girls.  I plan on sending every one of my children to A Mother's Touch
and always recommend it to anyone that is looking for a caring loving
environment with an academic program that has aided my daughter in being
ready for school.

 AMTLC is very near and dear to our hearts.   My daughter attended both Pre-
Kindergarten and Kindergarten at A Mother's Touch Learning Center. In
addition, my older children attended the after school and summer enrichment
program. Our families' experience with the staff and owner of this facility has
been nothing less than exceptional and professional. Like myself, often
parents are nervous about entrusting the care of their children to others. After
visiting the facility, hearing wonderful testimonies from other parents, meeting
with the owner and witnessing my kid's absolute delight and enthusiasm with
attending AMTLC, my nervousness and anxiety subsided.

 The owner, Zakiyyah Muhammad was like a second mother to my daughter.
She provided care that only a mother could recognize and appreciate.
Zakiyyah's educational program is built on the morals and the basic
foundations that we taught in our home. I cannot do anything but praise this
facility because it is rare to find a childcare provider with such patience and
expertise. AMTLC was truly a wonderful experience for us and it was very bitter
sweet when my daughter graduated to the next stage in her education, first
grade!

 I would recommend this facility to any parents/guardians seeking care with "A
Mother's Touch".

 My son has been attending A Mother's Touch Learning Center for over 2
years now. When I first came to Philly in 2006, I did not work for 1 year
because, I just could not find a child care provider that I trusted with my son.
That changed when I met Zakiyyah. Every day I spend 2 hours on the road
dropping and picking him up, but knowing my son is in perfect hands makes
my time worth while.

 My son learned so much not just academically but his social and his Islamic
studies has never been to the level he is right now. Zakiyyah is not just a
teacher; she is also like a mom away from me.  It is a wonderful loving
environment for all the children. She is such an excellent, wonderful and
awesome person.   I recommend AMTLC to all moms.  If I ever have any more
kids, I would not take them any where but with the care of Zakiyyah.

 My children attend A Mothers Touch Learning Center during the summer
months. I feel comfortable knowing that they are receiving academic
enrichment in a safe and caring environment.

 My eight year old son has participated in A Mother’s Touch Aftercare program
for 2 years now.  My husband and I are both beyond pleased with the high
quality of care and attention Sr. Zakiyyah gives our son. She has continued to
show her dedication and passion for the overall well-being of every child that
is in her care. My son truly enjoys the positive, loving, and fun environment Sr.
Zakiyyah provides at her center-so much so, that at times, he even asks to
spend the night!  I would highly recommend A Mother’s Touch Learning
Center to each and every family searching for that loving, trustworthy and safe
environment in which to leave their children.
