Introduction

Hello! My name is Zhaleh and I'm from Canada. I am able to speak English fluently and Japanese conversationally.

After taking an interest in Japanese language and culture I moved to Japan about five years ago to study Japanese. While I was studying I began working part-time at an international school where I quickly realized how much I enjoyed spending time playing and caring for children. After graduation I decided to continue pursuing a career in early years education here in Japan.

I am currently working as a classroom teacher at an international preschool where I have gained four years of experience teaching and caring for children aged 1-6. This includes assisting at meal times, putting children down for naps, changing diapers, and small outings to the park or supermarket. I love spending time with kids and enjoying music, crafting, and games together, or even just having a chat about our hobbies and interests.

I grew up alongside two dogs and have helped look after many neighbours' cats as well so I would be happy to care for any pets you may share your home with!

I'm looking forward to meeting you and getting to know your family!

We hired Zhaleh for a one off job in Osaka watching our 22 month old while we were travelling for work. She was brilliant at communicating before hand and on the day, and researched for ideas on how to best spend the day with our son (in intense heat!) He is a little clingy at the moment but she straight away got him engaged with books she had brought especially based on his interests. No tears when we left and he was happy with her all day and asking for her after she left. Highly recommend and will hire again if we are ever in Osaka with our son again!

Zhaleh's friendly, kind, and enthusiastic demeanor, coupled with her responsible and trustworthy nature, makes her an excellent caregiver. With her extensive experience as a preschool teacher and babysitter, she is well-equipped to care for children. We believe Zhaleh will be a great fit for any CareFinder family!
