The Kyoto University Gender Equality Promotion Center offers the Day Care Room for Infants on Waiting Lists for Public Nursery School to help researchers and students whose children are on waiting lists for admission to nursery schools to pursue their research and educational goals while raising their children.

Kyoto University Gender Equality Promotion Center provides child pick-up and temporary nursery services for researchers and students in case of late picking up of their children.

A facility in Kyoto University Hospital where nurses and childcare staff care for children after illness. Parents do not need to take off from work or research when their children are unable to attend kindergarten, nursery school, or school due to convalescence.

These two day-care centers originated from a joint workplace day-care center established in a corner of Kyoto University, and many of the parents of the children at these centers are still related to Kyoto University.
Therefore, the Kyoto University Staff Union and the two day-care centers maintain a good relationship, and as a rule, childcare counseling and consultation on admission to day-care centers for union members are held at the staff union office from 12:10 to 12:50 on the second Tuesday of every month.
