Information on Childcare Services and Local Resources Collected Through Fieldwork
Available for Viewing and Downloading of 25 Types on Seoul City Ibook Homepage and Our Neighborhood Care Portal

[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Cheol-young] The Seoul Metropolitan Government announced on the 5th that it will produce an e-book titled "Our Neighborhood Detailed Childcare Information," which contains childcare information for each of the 25 autonomous districts collected firsthand by local childcare leaders, and provide it through the Seoul e-book homepage and social network services (SNS).

Our Neighborhood Childcare Leaders are childcare problem solvers who connect various resources needed to raise children in the community and provide customized childcare services to caregivers. About 140 childcare leaders, 4 to 7 per autonomous district, are active. The "Our Neighborhood Detailed Childcare Information" produced through these childcare leaders includes lifecycle- and target-specific childcare information as well as local information.

This "Our Neighborhood Detailed Childcare Information," which is highly useful and contains diverse childcare information tailored to the local community, can be accessed and downloaded by anyone through the Seoul e-book homepage and the Our Neighborhood Care Portal. For caregivers who have agreed to the use of personal information, an internet address (URL) that can be accessed immediately without a separate program is provided via social network services (SNS), etc.

Meanwhile, Our Neighborhood Childcare Leaders, now in their 9th year, have mainly provided information offline so far, but starting this year, they will introduce regional status using card news, YouTube videos, maps, and more.

As a specialized project for each autonomous district incorporating various local ideas, this provides caregivers with opportunities to directly and indirectly experience and interact with vivid childcare scenes that help with parenting.

Kim Hyun-mi, Seoul City’s Childcare Officer, said, "To raise children well, the interest and solidarity of neighbors and the local community are necessary," adding, "We hope that the support of Our Neighborhood Childcare Leaders, who are experienced parents, will be of great help to novice parents in childcare."
