Quote:
{28:10} And the heart of Moses' mother became empty [of all else]. She was about to disclose [the matter concerning] him had We not bound fast her heart that she would be of the believers.

Excellent translation.

Quote:
{28:11} And she said to his sister, "Follow him"; so she watched him from a distance while they perceived not.

I suggest,
{28:11} And she said to his sister, "Track him;" Then she saw him nearby while they did not detect [her].

Quote:
{28:12} And We had prevented from him [all] wet nurses before, so she said, "Shall I direct you to a household that will be responsible for him for you while they are to him [for his upbringing] sincere?"

I suggest,
{28:12} And We had prevented for him [all] suckling nurses before, so she said, "Shall I direct you to a household who will foster him for you and to him they are good counselors?"
