Childcare Support

Child care support for 0-5 year olds

Thanks to the cooperation by foreign volunteers who experienced raising children in the community, MIA edited child rearing information based on “Suku-suku ;Child Care Information Magazine”, issued by Musashino City, and translated it into various languages. If you are a foreign resident who feel it’s difficult to get or utilize local child care support information, please make use of it.
