Introduction

Hello, I’m Teruko.

I am a warm and responsible babysitter who truly enjoys spending time with children. I currently teach English to children at a nursery school and an after-school program in Tokyo. I also have experience caring for children in over 160 babysitting sessions through another agency.

Through my experience as an English teacher, I have learned that simply speaking English is not enough. I try to communicate in a clear and gentle way, so that children can enjoy English without feeling stressed or pressured.

I strongly value the Montessori approach of carefully observing each child and noticing their interests and needs. I try to give appropriate support and encouragement while respecting each child’s personality and pace.

I enjoy reading English picture books and collecting my favorite ones. Through picture books, songs, crafts, origami, and play, I would be happy to create a fun and natural environment where children can enjoy learning English.

Children’s safety and emotional well-being are always my top priorities. I will carefully support each child according to their individual needs and help them feel safe, comfortable, and happy.


CANCELLATION POLICY (all timing is calculated based on the start time of the scheduled sitting)

Experience

I am an experienced babysitter with 1.5 years of experience and over 130 babysitting sessions, caring for children aged 3 months to 10 years , I have 3.5 years of experience as an English teacher.

In addition, I have about 2 years of experience working as a lesson partner with foreign teachers.
So I am comfortable communicating in English in daily situations.

I enjoy creating a fun and natural English environment for children through play, songs, and picture books. I am especially good at helping children feel relaxed and enjoy English without pressure.

Through both my professional experience and my own experience raising children, I am able to understand and respond to children’s needs at different developmental stages with patience and care.

Although it was the first time having her here, our baby girl was able to quickly warm up to her! It was obvious she was having a great time, laughing and playing. Teruko-san also brought toys and picture books to play with which was also exciting and fun.

We were also specifically looking for someone who could help introduce English a bit more into our baby's environment and Teruko-san was a perfect fit.

We are thankful for meeting her and hope to meet her again soon!

Thank you Teruko-san!
