Find a Babysitter in Tokyo

<Accepting One Time Jobs Only>
I am a Japanese/English speaking around 50 female with two teens, from Bunko-ku. I started Babysitting when I was in high school in US. I used to live in Canada when I was in an elementary school. I lived in the US when I was in HS and graduated a college in the US. After my marriage, I moved back in US in 1999 until 2011. My older child goes to an international school in Tokyo. My experiences are volunteering and chaperoning to field trips and events at my children's schools since they were in preschools to current. Volunteering includes leading art class, story book reading, introducing my cultural background, and library organization, classroom mom, graduation committee, and school event helper . I have allergic to dogs. I used to work at Tokyo Disneyland for one and a half years. I really enjoyed having to mingle with international (including Japanese) visitors and their children trying to find out their needs at the moment within a very little time and make them happier. As long as there's public transportation available, I am available early morning and/or late night.

*Because I am involved with both of my children's PTA committees, I am currently only taking one time or occasional jobs.

*Because I would like to keep your precious child in my eyesight at the whole time, I do not do stove top cooking, but I can use microwave if necessary.

*I am also a certified caregiver at Tokyo Medical and Dental University and Hospital/Juntendo University and Hospital Family Support program.

*My rate is 1500 JPY/hour for one child and 2000 JPY/hour for two plus transportation fee to/from Myogadani Station (12 min from Tokyo Station) on Metro Marunouchi Line.

Hello! My name is Jasmine and I am from the NC,USA. I have been in Japan for 2.5 years after studying Japanese and marrying my husband. I have various hobbies such as photography, watching movies, singing, dancing and my favorite cooking! I also really enjoy hanging out at parks when the weather is nice. I love dogs and cats and have raised both back in the states before coming to Japan.

Currently, I teach private/group English lessons to both children and adults in the Tokyo/kanagawa areas. So tutoring your children would be of no problem at all.

I have more than 10 years of babysitting experience as I enjoy being around children. There is so much to learn and fun to be had. Some of my favorite activities to do with children include playing board games, singing/acting, playing sports/tag games outside and anything that gets the imagination going.


Thank your for taking the time to view my profile, I look forward to hearing from you soon!

こんにちは、私はジャスミンと申します。アメリカから参りました。私は13歳から色々なベビーシッターの経験があります。
子供が大好きので子供たちと楽しんでいていっぱい 笑います。もしもっと知りたいことがあれば聞いてください!

G'day mate！ My name is Nano:)
I have about 3years of experience as a teachers aid/baby sitter in Japan and Australia.
In Japan, I was working as a teachers aid and babysitter and I attended Kindy class(0.5-3yo) and Pre-prep class(3-5yo) for about 1 year. And in Australia, I took care of 3 children as an Aupair for 7 months. In addition, I experienced volunteer work at a childcare centre on the Gold Coast.

Through my experience in childcare, I have taken care of children aged between 1 to 10.
If under 5yo, I can provide them with some basic care, for example: preparing/giving baby formula, changing nappies and toilet training. Furthermore, I can provide engaging phonics lessons carted towards young children, learned as a component of my TECSOL(Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) qualification and the volunteer work I have experienced in.

My host children were 2 boys who were aged 7 and 5, and a little girl who was aged 2.
I mainly took care of the two boys by preparing brekky/lunch, dropping them off and picking them up from their school, helping Math/English homework and playing together. Even though they were pretty busy children for after school activities, I managed to provide piano lessons every day and practised a sort of Karate together.(actually, it was just like dance move..)
Engaging a child in self-discipline/self-management is one of the most beneficial attributes for a growing child. One practical activity that I found very helpful was a time board which included clock and scheduling(referred to my picture). On this board, the child had to plan and note particular activities according to the appropriate time-frame. It had a profound benefit in fostering independence and action without much input.

In addition, I have been active in the musicals/operas for 6 yrs in Japan and New York.
I found that I can utilise these experiences to help your children to learn.

I believe that I may be useful in tending to your needs.
If you have read this far, then it look forward to be your babysitter!
I look forward to the opportunity of hearing from you and meeting with your wonderful children:)

Cheers,

Nano

こんにちは！‘なの‘と申します。
保育補助/ベビーシッターとして3年ほど、日本とオーストラリアにて経験があります。
日本では保育補助として年少さんクラス（0.5－3歳）と年中さんクラス（3-5歳）の保育をし、オーストラリアでは台湾人家族（全員英語）のお家にで住み込みの3人のお子様のベビーシッターを7か月、またゴールドコーストの保育園にてボランティアをしていました。

これまで保育園から直近のベビーシッターの経験を含め、1歳から１０歳のお子さんの面倒を見させていただきました。]
幼児のケアであれば、ミルクを作る・あげる、トイレトレーニングなどの基本的なことから、TECSOL（12歳以下の子供に第二言語として英語を教える資格）とゴールドコーストの保育園にてPhonicsの指導なども学んだので、お子様の英語学習に役立てることができます。

オーストラリアでのホストキッズは7歳と5歳の男の子たちと2歳の女の子です。
朝食とランチの準備、学校への送り迎え、主に算数と英語の宿題のお手伝い、特に習い事の毎日忙しいお子さんたちでしたので、毎日ピアノの練習を見たり、空手の練習(風の踊り？）なども一緒にしました。
ある時、特に7歳には’私に言われたから何かをする’のではなく、もっと能動的に時間を意識し活動をしてもらいたい、と思い、時計を読む練習と予定する練習ができるボードを制作。（プロフィール写真参照）
子供たち自身で、“何時に何をする”という事を書いてもらうことで時間を意識するようになり、両親にも喜んでいただくことができました。一緒に遊んで、一緒に学ばせてもらった良い経験です。

またその以前は、日本とNYにてミュージカルやオペラの舞台にて活動していた経験があります。歌を一緒に歌ったり、創作ダンスを一緒にやって、私の経験から何か与えられたらいいなと思います。

皆様の素敵なお子さんにお会いできることを楽しみにしております。
どうぞお気軽にお問い合わせください。

Hello, I am Joy from Germany, born in Brazil and currently pursuing my master’s degree as an exchange student at Waseda University. Since school, I always enjoyed looking after children aged between 3 and 14 years old, working as a babysitter, camp supervisor or tutor. I also have a younger sister that I watched since I am young. In my spare time, I enjoy being outside and explore new places, travelling, cooking, listening to music and meeting with friends. Besides speaking German, Portuguese and English, I have now begun studying Japanese.
I am keen to think about fun and creative activities. I love to play as well as do crafts outside, visit museums or sing, dance and read with your children. Anything that is fun and encourages their interest and curiosity.
I can assure you that they will have a great time. I look forward to meeting you.

PS: I am allergic to cat hair. However, if the babysitting takes place outside or if I babysit the kids for a shorter period (2-3 hours), there will be no problems. :)

Hallo, ich bin Joy, geboren in Brasilien, und in London und Frankfurt aufgewachsen. Im Rahmen meines Masters an der Uni Tübingen mache ich momentan einen Austausch an der Waseda Universität. Neben Deutsch spreche ich Englisch und Portugiesisch fließend. Derzeit lerne ich auch Japanisch. Während der Schulzeit machte es mir bereits großen Spaß als Babysitter, Zeltlagerbetreuerin oder Nachhilfelehrerin zu arbeiten, und Kinder im Alter von 3 bis 14 Jahren zu betreuen. Zudem habe ich eine jüngere Schwester, auf die ich auch oft aufgepasst habe.
In meiner Freizeit bin ich gerne draußen, entdecke neue Orte, reise, koche, höre Musik und treffe mich mit Freunden. Es macht mir Spaß witzige und kreative Aktivitäten zu überlegen, sowie mit den Kindern draußen Zeit zu verbringen, zu spielen, zu basteln, ins Museum zu gehen, zu singen, zu tanzen und zu lesen - alles was Freude bereitet und die Neugierde sowie das Interesse der Kinder weckt.
Ich kann Ihnen versichern, dass Ihr Kind eine schöne Zeit hat und bei mir in guten Händen ist.
Ich würde mich freuen von Ihnen zu hören und Sie kennenzulernen.

PS: Ich bin allergisch gegen Katzenhaare. Wenn das Babysitten jedoch draußen stattfindet oder es sich um einen küzeren Zeitraum handelt (2-3 Stunden), ist es für mich kein Problem. :)

Bom dia, eu sou Joy, estudante na Waseda universidade aqui em Toquio. Eu nasci no Brasil mas cresci na Alemanha, por isso, além de inglês, falo alemão e português fluente. Recentemente estou aprendendo Japonês também.
Desde os tempos da escola, gosto de trabalhar como babá, supervisora de acampamento ou tutora, cuidando de crianças de 3 a 14 anos. Eu também tenho uma irmã mais nova que cuido dela desde pequena.
No meu tempo livre, gosto de passear, descobrir novos lugares, viajar, cozinhar, ouvir música e encontrar amigos. Adoro inventar coisas divertidas e criativas, passar tempo com crianças brincando ou fazer trabalhos manuais, indo ao museu, cantando, dançando e lendo. Tudo o que dá prazer e desperta a curiosidade e o interesse das crianças.
Te garanto que seu filho vai se divertir e estar em boas mãos comigo. Eu ficaria super feliz em conhecer você.

PS: Sou alérgica a pêlo de gato. No entanto, se o babysitting ocorre fora ou se é um período mais curto (2-3 horas), não é um problema para mim. :)
