  We are looking for someone who speaks good English as our English is not good.

  We would like to accept you as my son's Big Sister.

  Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado

  In spring, we will show you places with beautiful cherry blossoms; in summer, festivals where you can see fireworks; in autumn, places where you can enjoy the autumn leaves; and in winter, precious cultural assets covered with snow.
  If you like, we can take you to the library, the dentist, the local bakery, and other places that most tourists don't go.
  Kyoto offers convenient access to both the big city and the countryside.
  If you would like to enjoy both the city and the countryside, I highly recommend it.

  About helping-----------------------------------
  
  -Taking care of my son and playing with hiｍ.
  He is very active and energetic, and does not tire easily after playing all day.
  He loves cars and trucks all over the world.
  His favourite characters are Disney's Chip & Deal and Nintendo's Yoshi.
  
  He does not speak English to Japanese speakers, so it is better if you do not speak Japanese at all or are a beginner.
  Of course we welcome people with intermediate Japanese or above, but this is not a place where you can practise a lot of Japanese.
  But if you have any questions about Japanese, please don't hesitate to ask me, as I will always do my best to answer.
  
  -Doing some simple household chores.
  Washing dishes, folding laundry, cleaning the living room, etc.
  The time needed for housework is about 30 minutes per day.
  
  About Daily Life---------------------------------
  
  You are responsible for cooking your own breakfast and lunch.
  Ingredients are freely available in our fridge and pantry.
  If you want to eat something special/extra, or have eating restrictions/preferences, you will have to get them and pay for them yourself.
  I (host mom) will cook dinner and we will eat together.
  If possible, we would be very happy if you could cook a local dish from your country as we are interested in it.
  
  You are responsible for your own personal care
  (washing your clothes, cleaning your room, washing your dishes and putting them back where you used them, removing hair from the drain after showering, etc.).
  Of course, use of the vacuum cleaner, washing machine, etc. is free.
  
  Make sure you have valid medical insurance in Japan in case you are injured or ill.
  
  About your free time------------------------------
  
  The rest of the time you are free to explore Kyoto, relax and read a book, etc.
  Basically, on weekdays you don't have to work in the morning.
  (Flexible arrangements may be requested during long kindergarten holidays or due to parents' work commitments).
  
  Curfew is 24:00, but, my son goes to bed by 8.30-9pm every day, so please be quiet after that.
  
  -----Could you please include the following in your first message?
  ・Introduction about yourself
  ・About how you became interested in Japan
  ・your childcare experience (age of children, gender, duration and frequency, etc.)
  
  *Preference will be given to those who can stay longer (4 months or more) if we are a good fit.
