Child-Rearing Support Service Business
Starting with licensed nurseries such as "Nijiiro Nursery," we operate various types of public childcare facilities including after-school clubs and children’s centers, as well as contracted childcare facilities located on the premises of hospitals, companies, and universities. Guided by our childcare philosophy, "Gently Nurturing the Sprouts of Tomorrow," we create a warm and loving environment where we embrace each child’s unique individuality. Through enriching encounters with people, nature, and the world around them, we foster the vital strength, curiosity, and joy children need to thrive.

Childcare Philosophy
"Gently Nurturing the Sprouts of Tomorrow"
"Gently Nurturing the Sprouts of Tomorrow"
During this critical stage that forms the foundation of human development, we foster children's vital strength to thrive (= rich sensitivity + empathy for others + the ability to think and act independently) by providing opportunities for rich experiences through encounters with diverse people, objects, and nature.
Nursery Rooms Crafted with Natural Materials
By surrounding children with the warmth of handmade toys and furniture crafted from domestic Japanese cypress wood, we create a soothing, home-like environment where they feel safe and free to express their imagination.
Food Education Initiatives
In a warm, family-like setting, we share the joy and importance of healthy eating. Centered on the themes of "growing, preparing, eating, and learning," we cultivate a healthy dietary foundation during early childhood when senses of taste are formed.
