    there is some places like this. http://www.jbs-mom.co.jp/ but price seems not cheap. ¥4,536 / 3 hours ¥3,672 / 2 hours also you have to pay initial fee.

    You could try searching Facebook for mum groups in your area. Having a few friends who will swap babysitting from time to time is a great help. Some mum's would live the cash in hand if you wanted to 'hire' them regularly.

    There are babysitting agencies I have been seeing online. You can inquire to them or just go to their office and see what goes. I've seen one agency that's called Honey Clover.

Your favourite wordplay, pun, or palindrome in Japanese

BigfamJapan blogged about a day for palindromes, and I had a good chuckle. I love wordplay in Japanese! What's your favourite pun, palindrome, or spoonerism (a phrase that gets mangled into another meaning when you switch syllables). For reference, I cracked up when a coworker said "Naiyo ga nai yo" on finding an empty sweets packet.

Do you like any Japanese Christmas songs? If so, what is your favorite Japanese Christmas song? Or maybe you like the Japanese version of a traditional Christmas carol?

Where do you visit Santa Claus?

Firstly, do you visit Santa Claus each year in Japan? And if so, where? I've been posting places you can meet Santa Claus in various parts of Japan on the blog section. If you are looking for somewhere to meet him this year, you'll find at least 25 places on City-cost.

Did you feel the December 8th earthquake?

There was a large earthquake off the coast of Aomori Prefecture at 11.15 pm on December 8th 2025. We are approximately 700 kilometers from the epicenter, yet we felt it very strongly. Did you feel it and how far away (roughly) are you from the epicenter?
