Introduction

Hello! I have about 10 years of childcare experience, including teaching English, nannying, teaching swim lessons, and babysitting. I was born in Tokyo and raised in Wisconsin, USA, and I'm currently a public health graduate student living in Tokyo. I speak English and conversational Japanese.

I’ve always loved working with children and helping them learn and grow in a fun environment. In addition to my teaching experience, I enjoy creative and active play. I love going outside, cooking and baking, doing arts and crafts, or coming up with science experiments. My background in swimming also means I’m always up for active play or helping build kids’ confidence in the water.

A few extra fun facts about me include that I am currently training for a triathlon, I played clarinet for 9 years, and I love reading!

I look forward to meeting you and your family!

Experience

Until recently, I was working as an English teacher (ALT) at a elementary and junior high school in Yamagata. In college, I nannied full time for a family with a 7 year old boy and 10 year old girl for about 6 months, but worked with that family for about 5 years total between babysitting, swimming lessons, and nannying. I taught swimming lessons in for around 4 years, ranging from 6 months to 13 years old, with the majority of my swimmers aged 3-10. I have also done regular babysitting for many years, with kids aged 1-15.

Clara was wonderful with our two boys. She was kind, patient, and quickly connected with them. They especially enjoyed playing board games together today, and it was great to see them so engaged. We are looking forward to working with her again.
