Introduction

🌻On summer break from 18 July to 2 September🌻

I am a mum of 2 boys (aged 4 and 6) and have first-hand experience at raising energetic, creative kids! In addition to my own children, I am registered with my city's Family Support system, and regularly look after babies and school-age children. I also have 4 years of experience teaching English: I taught private English conversation in Tokyo to children from babies through junior high, and then taught in Japanese schools (all levels) in Nagoya.

I have been heavily influenced by Montessori educational philosophies, and love arranging these styles of activities for children. Sensory play, arts and crafts, baking, and pretend play are a few of my favourites. I believe in "following the child": I take time to get to know each child and their preferences, whether baby or pre-teen, and find activities that deeply engage each one.

I was born in North Carolina, USA, grew up mostly in Scotland, and have now lived in Japan for 10 years. I am bilingual in English and Japanese.

I can't wait to support you and your children!
