Introduction

My name Nana, 24 years old, and I am half Japanese and half Hispanic American🇯🇵🇪🇸🇺🇸. I studied early childhood development in college and after graduating I worked as a preschool teacher for 4 years. I also started babysitting in high school so I have many experience with children of all ages. With my skills and passion, I will work hard to achieve a trusting relationship with not only your child but the parent as well. I am also fluent in Japanese and English so if you prefer either language or would want to have a babysitter who can also teach and translate, I’m here to help!

I was born and raised in Japan however, I grew up in a military base allowing me to have and education in English making me fluent in both languages.

The previous families I did babysitting for, I was lucky to have experienced picking up children from school, participate in school events, join the family to sightseeing/ Disneyland/ vacation as a support for the parents and “playmate” for their children, support for parents when they needed an extra hand and many more precious opportunities!
With my experience as an babysitter and preschool teacher, I will build a relationship of trust with not only your child but most importantly the parents as well. When I’m around children I always keep in mind to have fun, be energetic, and to make sure the children and parents feel safe.
I am looking forward to the opportunity to take care of your children!

Lastly, I’d like to introduce myself😊 My hobbies are collecting Goshuin(traditional stamps from shrines and temples) and reading! I love Disney, Ghibli, and classical music! Finally, my favorite character of all times in Snorlax from Pokémon✨

Thank you so much for taking the time to read my introduction and I am looking forward to taking care of your children.

Nana was great with our son! She played with him and read English books and he was so happy and energetic! We definately want her to come again.

Not only did my child enjoy his time with Nana, she also provided a report on what they did together and how my son was doing. I really appreciated her organization and friendliness, especially to my son.

I highly recommend her!

We had to hurry to our dinner reservation but she was friendly and professional making me feel safe in leaving our daughter having only just met. Big plus that our dog loved her too 😊😊 thank you Nana (also for cleaning the dishes 🙇)

Nana was wonderful! She is such a natural with children. Our children had a great time with her, and she even cleaned the place so nicely after they went to bed. We were very grateful for her help!

Nana was great and so pleasant to work with. Our family was so glad we were able to hire Nana to babysit for us in Tokyo! She was great at communication and prompt. She asked about concerns and preferences before hand. She was an instant hit with our children within minutes of meeting with them. She brought activities and toys with her to keep them engaged and happy. Would highly recommend her 🙌🏽
