Introduction

Hello, my name is Karen!
I was born and raised in The United States so I speak native English, but I also can speak fluent Japanese as I visited Japan often in my childhood. I am currently attending university in Tokyo, and am part of my school’s sports team.

I have experience in The United States caring for children aged 4-13, including babysitting and volunteering at a Japanese weekend school. I would often help kids out with their schoolwork (both in English and Japanese), cook, clean, play and come up with fun and creative activities together! I enjoy helping children build their confidence in both languages through play, conversation and everyday activities.

In my free time, I enjoy reading, knitting, sewing, crocheting, tennis, cooking and baking. I enjoy being active as I have played tennis for 11+ years, and can teach beginners or coach kids! I also grew up playing piano for 10 years during my childhood, so I can help teach piano to children.

My babysitting availability may depend on my university or sports team schedule, but please feel free to reach out anytime. Thank you!
