Introduction

Hello!I'm Manami. I studied abroad in America, Washington state for two and half years.
After that, I have been working as an English teacher in Okayama for ten years.
The reason why I became a babysitter is that I want to respect children's personality and
individuality.
In the group lessons, I had a difficult time teaching what each student wants to do, but
I can give lessons based on what they want to and what they like to do as a babysitter.
I want them to expand their perspective.
Children will have many choices for the future if they speak English!

I learned English as a second language, so I understand how hard it is.
When children struggle to pick up English, I know how to encourage and support them.
I really want them to know that English is fun to learn!


I love outdoors. I go to parks, mountains, sea, and rivers with my family on my days off.
I tried camping and skiing with my kids.
When I was a student, I played baseball, basketball, and soccer.
I'm outgoting and active. I really like sports, so if your children like sports or going to the
parks, I'd love to go out with them!

Manami is just a gem. She is highly experienced with two children of her own, she always has a smile and positive, she came with a ton of games and toys to entertain our daughter, and she also helped us massively during the trip such as driving us to the nearby shop on the first day for essentials, and booked us taxis. She is not 5-star, she is 10-star!!!

It was really nice seeing you guys while you stayed in Okayama. Your daughter was realy sweet, and I had fun with her, too. You, your wife, and your friend are always friendly and easy to talk with, so I didn’t get nervous and I was able to ask questions to babysit your daughter. Please contact me when you travel Japan again. I would love to help you and your family even outside Okayama!
