Introduction

Hello! My name is Ashley. I am an exchange student from Canada studying at Keio University in Tokyo, and I am excited to work with children while sharing my languages and culture. I speak English and French fluently and have extensive experience working with kids of all ages.
I actually am aspiring to be a teacher in the future therefore, I want to gain as much experience as I can working with children.

I love doing arts and crafts, playing games, and staying active with activities like soccer and hide-and-seek. In the past, I have babysat regularly, worked as a skating instructor, taught swimming to children ages 4–15, and spent five summers as a waterfront lifeguard. I hold Canadian/Ontario certifications in First Aid, CPR, and AED, and I have real-life experience performing rescues and administering CPR to both children and adults.

In addition, I hold a High Five Certificate from the City of Toronto and participated in annual training programs while working with the city. These experiences have helped me develop strong skills in safety, responsibility, and childcare.

I am still a beginner in Japanese, but I am doing my best and learning every day! I truly look forward to meeting you and having the opportunity to care for your children in a fun, safe, and supportive environment.

I am also a confident pet sitter - animals have always been an important part of my life and living abroad without my pets make me miss them so much more, I would be excited to help take care of your pets as if they were my own.

48+ hours before the scheduled sitting: No cancellation fee

Bonjour! Je m’appelle Ashley. Je viens du Canada et je suis étudiante d’échange à l’Université Keio, à Tokyo. J’aimerais beaucoup travailler avec des enfants et partager mes langues et ma culture. Je parle anglais et français couramment et j’ai beaucoup d’expérience avec les enfants de différents âges.

J’aime faire des bricolages, jouer à des jeux et rester active avec des activités comme le soccer et la cachette. J’ai déjà gardé des enfants plusieurs fois, travaillé comme monitrice de patinage, enseigné la natation à des enfants de 4 à 15 ans et j’ai aussi travaillé cinq étés comme sauveteuse. J’ai des certifications de l’Ontario en premiers soins, RCR et DEA, et j’ai déjà fait des sauvetages et donné la RCR à des enfants et des adultes.

J’ai aussi obtenu mon certificat High Five avec la Ville de Toronto et j’ai suivi plusieurs formations chaque année. Grâce à ces expériences, j’ai appris à être responsable, sécuritaire et à bien m’occuper des enfants.

Je suis encore débutante en japonais, mais j’apprends chaque jour! J’ai hâte de vous rencontrer et d’avoir la chance de prendre soin de vos enfants dans un environnement amusant et sécuritaire.

J’ai aussi l’habitude de m’occuper de chiens, chats, petits animaux et poissons : promenades, repas, jeux et nettoyage, toujours avec amour et attention.

Avoir grandi avec des chiens recueillis et avoir aidé des amis avec leurs animaux m’a appris à être patiente, responsable et attentive aux besoins de chaque animal.

Comme je vis à l’étranger sans mes propres animaux, je serais très heureuse de m’occuper des vôtres comme s’ils étaient les miens.

Experience

Childcare:
Babysitting for 6 years
Skate instructor for kids for 2 years
Swim instructor for kids for 1 year
Lifeguard for 5 summers

Pet Sitting:
I have grown up with animals my whole life and have a lot of experience caring for pets, both my own and for other families. I have taken care of dogs of all sizes, as well as cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, rats, and fish.

From walks to feeding, playing, and cleaning up after them, I always make sure each pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. At home, I grew up with rescue dogs, and I have also helped many friends and families look after their pets. These experiences taught me to be patient, responsible while still considering each pet’s needs and personality.

I can provide services such as:
- walking
- feeding
- giving fresh water
- playing
- cleaning after

Ashley was very friendly and easy to get along with from the first time - as I heard a lot from a referrer. Our
daughter is usually shy to a new babysitter, but with Ashley, she got curious, intracted and proactively spoke English, which surprised us in a positive way.
We'd like to ask her again for the babysit next week.

Ashley has a very sincere and kind personality. Despite the last-minute request, she came prepared with some materials. Even my youngest child, who usually takes time to open up to new people, quickly became comfortable and had a great time, which made me immediately ask her for next visits. カナダでイマージョン教育を受けた方なので、おうち英語のこともきっとよく理解してくださると思います。Highly recommended:)
