Introduction

I worked as an after-school childcare instructor at after-school programs and children’s centers in Japan for about 7.5 years, mainly supporting elementary school-aged children. I also have four years of babysitting experience, including two years working in the United States, and I am comfortable communicating in English.

I value each child’s feelings, ideas, and individuality. Rather than immediately doing everything for them, I encourage children to think for themselves, express their feelings, make choices, and try age-appropriate tasks independently.

While parents are away, I aim to provide more than basic supervision. Depending on your child’s age and interests, we can enjoy activities such as homework and reading support, arts and crafts, outdoor play, games, and simple cooking. My goal is to make our time together safe, engaging, and meaningful.

Drawing on my experience, I will support your child in feeling comfortable and happy while helping them build confidence and independence through small, positive achievements.

Experience

学童保育・児童館で約7.5年間、ベビーシッターとして約4年間勤務し、さらにアメリカでは2年、外国人家庭でオペアとして子どもたちの生活をサポートしてきました。0歳から12歳まで、幅広い年齢のお子さまと関わった経験があります。

アメリカでの1年目は、ご両親・お子さまと英語でコミュニケーションを取りながら、日常生活全般をサポートしました。2年目は、ご両親とは英語でやり取りをしつつ、お子さまたちには日本語で接し、ひらがな・カタカナ・漢字の学習や、相手や場面に応じた敬語の使い方など、日本語や日本文化に親しめるようサポートしてきました。

日々の保育では、お子さまと一緒にクッキングやベーキングをしたり、季節や行事に合わせたクラフト制作を取り入れたりしてきました。また、ピクニックやハイキング、スイミングなど、体を動かしながら楽しめる活動にも対応しています。お子さまの年齢や興味、その日の体調に合わせて、室内と屋外の活動をバランスよく取り入れることを大切にしています。

日本で夏休みを過ごした際には、お子さまたちが日本ならではの文化や体験を楽しめるよう、アンパンマンミュージアムや東京ディズニーランド、浅草寺や東京スカイツリーなどの観光名所、日本庭園、花火大会、お祭り、スーパー銭湯などへのお出かけを企画し、当日の移動やスケジュールも含めて引率しました。

ただお預かりするだけではなく、お子さまにとって思い出に残る経験や、新しいことに興味を持つきっかけをつくることを大切にしています。

保護者の方とのコミュニケーションも大切にしており、英語でのやり取りにも対応可能です。日本と海外の両方で培った経験を活かし、ご家庭ごとの教育方針や文化を尊重しながら、安心してお任せいただけるサポートを心がけています。

I have worked for approximately about 7.5 years in after-school childcare programs and children's centers, 4 years as a babysitter, and 2 years as an au pair for an international family in the United States. During this time, I have cared for children from newborns to 12 years old.

During my first year in the U.S., I communicated with both the parents and the children in English while supporting their daily routines and childcare needs. In my second year, I continued communicating with the parents in English while speaking Japanese with the children. I helped them learn hiragana, katakana, kanji, as well as age-appropriate and situational Japanese manners and polite expressions, allowing them to naturally develop their Japanese language skills and cultural understanding.

In my daily childcare, I enjoy planning activities that are both fun and educational. These include cooking and baking together, seasonal arts and crafts, picnics, hiking, swimming, and other activities tailored to each child's age, interests, and energy level. I believe children learn best through hands-on experiences while having fun.

When the family spent their summer vacation in Japan, I planned and organized outings so the children could experience Japanese culture firsthand. Together we visited places such as the Anpanman Children's Museum, Tokyo Disneyland, Senso-ji Temple, Tokyo Skytree, traditional Japanese gardens, summer festivals, fireworks events, and Japanese public baths (onsen/sento). I organized the schedules, transportation, and activities to create memorable and meaningful experiences for the children.

My goal is not only to provide safe and reliable childcare, but also to create opportunities for children to discover new interests, build confidence, and make lasting memories.

I value open communication with parents and am comfortable communicating in English. By combining my experience in both Japan and the United States, I strive to provide childcare that respects each family's parenting style, culture, and values while creating a warm, supportive, and enjoyable environment for every child.
