Introduction

Hi! :) My name is Lily, I am an energetic and creative 22 and from the UK. In the summer I completed my bachelors degree in Sociology and am now living in Kyoto on a working-holiday visa, I have been here for over 4 months and have fallen in love with the city!

I have over 6 years of various experience working with children from the ages of 4 to 15 years old. I am a native English speaker and although I do not speak Japanese, am in the process of learning.

In my free time, I love to be outdoors, which is one of the reasons I chose to come to Kyoto! I love walking, cycling and exploring new areas. I also love to cook, my favourite cuisine is Italian! When looking after kids, I love to spend time outdoors and do some cooking or baking if possible!

CANCELLATION POLICY (all timing is calculated based on the start time of the scheduled
sitting)
48+ hours before the scheduled sitting: No cancellation fee
Between 48-24 hours: 50% of sitting fee
Within 24 hours: 100% of sitting fee (+ transportation cost if on the way)

Experience

From the age of 16, I would regularly babysit for kids from the age of 4 to 15 in my local area. My duties would include playing with the kids, for example doing jigsaw puzzles, playing board games and singing and dancing (this is my favourite activity to dow with kids!) as well as giving them dinner and helping them get ready for bedtime.

As well as having lots of babysitting experience in my local area, I also have experience as an au pair, three summers ago I went to live with a family with two children aged 7 and 12 near Barcelona for 6 weeks. During this time I was responsible for looking after the children during the day, playing engaging games with them and doing activities such as drawing, painting and going to the nearby beach! I was also responsible for helping both children with their English, to do this I designed my own worksheets with images which helped them with learning English vocabulary.

I am also currently babysitting for an American family who are living in Kyoto, they have two young daughters aged 2 and 3. I mostly play with them in their apartment but also often take them to the nearby park, we love to play on the swings, play tag and go on the climbing frame!

I look forward to hearing from you and hope to take care of your kids in the future!
