We're a foreign family in Islamabad, and Kamran has been with us for two years. Since then, he drives us to school every morning, runs errands, and helps with general upkeep of the car, driveway and outdoor plants. He is a steady, trustworthy presence with a strong work ethic.

What really showed us his character: when family friends visited from abroad without any English, Kamran took them to Lahore independently, coordinated with local guides, and kept us updated throughout. It went perfectly.

Excellent English, consistently positive attitude. We'd recommend him to anyone without hesitation.

I had the privilege of employing Gabriel Sylvester for over a year (until we left Pak) as my 'personal professional assistant' . His English language skills are excellent.

He helped with translation with everyone from repair people to market sellers. He assisted with some event planning and brought in extra staff for larger events, which he managed. He helped quite a bit with my understanding of very local events, traditions and even anticipated traffic patterns. Call 03158170998

Ms. Naseem has been a wonderful help in our household. She used to be a nurse, and tackles her work with care and precision. I have been impressed with how she takes initiative and pride in her work, not needing me to direct her all the time. She is diligent and prefers to get the job done than to take breaks. She has cooked some for us (tasty Pakistani meals!), but has mostly done food prep, house cleaning, and ironing. She is good with expat kids, and she looks through books with my kids for them to get some Urdu practice every day. They really like her! She told me she has nanny experience.

While she continues to work for us, I am posting here because she is looking for additional hours: she is available most afternoons and all-day Tuesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays.

I’d like to recommend a trusted and professional driver from the IMF office who is currently available. He has extensive experience working with diplomats and in office settings, as well as supporting families.

He is punctual, calm, kind, and a safe driver. He is mature, reliable, respectful, and knows Islamabad very well. He also has experience with school drop-offs and is caring and good with children.

His name is Noor Ali

This is a reference for Shahnaz

Shahnaz Shabbir held a key to my house for this period. She is absolutely honest and I did not have any problems. She responds well to clear direction on what is needed. Importantly for me, she was very good with my pets (initially 3 cats) and when I adopted a dog she quickly learned to be comfortable with the dog as well, even though she was a little nervous at first.

I commend Shahnaz Shabbir as a totally honest and kind worker who is good with animals. Would be happy to provide further information if that would be useful.

Yours sincerely
