Meet Yu

A short hello from Yu before you meet.

In her words

Why I do this work

“Hello! I am Yu Ke, a university research student, loving mother, and dedicated nanny based right here in beautiful Kyoto, Japan. With over six years of professional teaching experience, alongside more than 15 years raising my own children and a background in university education, I bring a gentle, patient, and deeply thoughtful approach to caring for your little ones. Fluent in English and native in Mandarin, I love creating a nurturing, supportive environment.”

Experience & qualifications

Yu's background

For more than 15 years, I have provided dedicated childcare to my own children, supporting them from infancy through their teenage years. Additionally, having spent over seven years teaching university students in South Africa, I bring an encouraging, structured, and patient presence to my caregiving. I am naturally calm, reassuring, and attentive. As a dedicated mother, my duties included feeding, changing nappies, bathing, getting children ready for bed, reading, playing, and going for walks. I also managed daily routines, provided educational play, and prepared meals, always customised to align with each family's personal preferences. I take pride in helping children feel safe, happy, and comfortable, ensuring a seamless experience for your entire family while abroad.
