I take/I'm taking?

If I'm looking after my little sister while my parents are out of town and they call home and ask me: "How is she?"

Can I then answer: "I take good care of her." even though "I'm taking good care of her." is more precise and correct? Please tell me how common each of these are in everyday speech?

Thanks in advance.
