Introduction

Hello! :) I am Satoko and I am half Japanese and Kiwi. I was born and raised in New Zealand and also lived in Hawai'i for 9 years. While living in Hawai'i, I was a regular babysitter for 3 different families for many years. For one family, I got to take care of their baby boy from 6 months old until he was 4 years old. It was a joy to watch him grow up. I have remained in contact with these families and occasionally take care of their children when I go back to visit Hawai'i.

I have 6 years of experience babysitting children aged 6 months to 10 years old. I have 3 years of experience working at an International School in Tokyo as a teaching assistant and English teacher. As a teaching assistant, I worked closely with students who required extra learning support and mostly worked with ages 5-10. As an English teacher I taught from grades K-8 with a focus on the elementary years. I am happy to help your children with school work, assist with meal prep and care for multiple children!

I love all sorts of outdoor activities like surfing, hiking, yoga, and basically anything that involves being in nature! While babysitting I love doing many fun activities such as arts & crafts, puzzles, games, reading, or playing at the park! I would love to help your children grow and explore their environment through fun and educational activities.

⚠️Cancellation Fee (all timing is calculated based on the start time of the scheduled sitting)⚠️
48+ hours before the scheduled sitting: No cancellation fee

I really enjoy working with children and would love the opportunity to take care of your child while also helping them learn in fun ways!

Satoko was very engaging in conversation and game play with my 2 years old son, he was actively playing and engaged with her too.
