【Childcare for Sick and Post-sick Children in Inzai City】Better to register before going back
Do you know about childcare for sick and post-sick children?
It's very useful to register in advance before going back to work from Childcare Leave.
Today, we would like to introduce "Childcare Facilities for Sick and Post-sick Children" in Inzai city.
What's Childcare for Sick and Post-sick Children?
You must have some concerns before going back to work from Childcare Leave. Children are easy to get infected in nursery school or kindergarten in the beginning, we heard that from many moms experienced.
Once children get sick, you don't know how long it'll take them to get better.... It could be days or a week even. However, you may have important appointments or meetings to attend. If neither mom or dad can't stay with sick children, you can use childcare facilities for sick and post-sick children.
What's the difference between sick children and post-sick children?
- 「Childcare for Sick Children」childcare for currently sick children
- 「Childcare for Post-sick Children」childcare for children who are in the process of recovering from illness
There is a standard of at least 1 nurse for every 10 children, and at least 1 child care worker for every 3 children in the facility.

In the case of Flu, after 3 days for infants and 2 days for school children after the fever has broken (the day the fever breaks is counted as "day 0"), the child can be kept as long as the doctor determines that the child is in good general condition.
Please check Inzai City Hall HP "Q&A" for the details as well. (only Japanese available)
It is said that small children who have just started nursery school or kindergarten are inevitably prone to illness. When returning to work after childcare leave, we suggest registering in advance. In addition to work, you can also leave your child in the event of accidents, childbirth, weddings, funerals, and other social events, so why not consider registering when your child reaches the eligible age?
Even if you know in your head that your child's health comes first, you may get stressed if you have to take days off from work. In order to continue working and raising children without strain, it is important to prepare to create an environment that you can get help from as possible beforehand.
Inzai City has a support system for sick and post-sick children so please remember when your children get sick.
