Hello! I'm Chiaki, a certified midwife, registered nurse and public health nurse, working as a babysitter in Tokyo.
I spent nine years on maternity wards in Japan and have cared for more than 1,500 mothers and babies. I also lived in Washington, D.C. for a year as a live-in babysitter for newborns and infants, so I am used to how international families live at home.
Newborns to around six months are my specialty: breast and bottle feeding, bathing, settling a baby to sleep, and making space for you to actually rest. While I am with your baby, please feel free to ask me the small things too, such as "Is my baby feeding enough?" or "He won't sleep for long at night." As a midwife I can answer them on the spot.
About my English: I am at a basic conversational level, and I use translation tools for anything detailed. I already care for English-speaking families, and some of them book me again.
I am available on weekdays from 7:00 to 16:00 in Tokyo, and early starts are fine. Homes with dogs or cats are very welcome. Please feel free to contact me.
