Hi mums, dads, and kids there! I’m looking for babysitting job opportunities to help little kids and their families. I’m available from Monday to Thursday.Located in Footscray, but western suburbs and CBD are convenient to travel! Little bit of myself. I had learned childcare and children’s development at my uni in Japan. After graduated, went to the USA as an au pair for two years. I took care of two kids(1.5yo girl and 4yo boy when I started working til they get 3yo and 6yo. ) there. The boy had Autism, so I have experience of special need kids too. After that, I came back to Japan and worked as bilingual nursery teacher at international school in English environment. In Australia,I had worked as a spot nanny in Melbourne and a live-in farm nanny for 4months. In the farm, I had taken care of 4kids ( 4mo, 3yo, 4yo and 6yo) as full time nanny. While school is closed because of covid-19, I did home schooling and taught the kids reading, writing, and math as well. From June 2020 to onwards, I’ve been working for the family with 3kids(5. 7 and 13yrs) throughout lockdown while pandemic and right now I am giving the youngest kid full day care when he’s not going to kinder . Occasionally I take care of their friends family’s kids altogether so sometimes I take care of 5kids including 1yo baby. So I have rich experience and knowledge of childcare. I can speak fluent English, and am able to teach Japanese and Japanese culture if you would like me to teach your kids other cultures. In addition, I love cooking and very passionate about teaching the kids dietary education by involving them into the process ( growing plants, going to the shop/market and cooking together ) I can introduce japanese cuisine to your children too😊 Hope to see you soon and please send me a message if it sounds like someone you were looking for! Cheers, Hikaru
