Baek Younghyun emphasized, "In order to address the challenges of low birth rates and population decline, I believe that, above all, it is essential to create an environment that is conducive to raising children. I will build a city where the burden of childcare is reduced, educational opportunities are expanded, children can dream, and young people are drawn to gather."

First, Baek Younghyun pledged to expand the operation of care centers that are open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, and to establish a care system that can be accessed immediately during nighttime or in emergency situations. His plan is to minimize gaps in care for dual-income and single-parent families, thereby practically alleviating the burden of childcare.

He also explained that he would expand public postpartum care support and strengthen specialized maternal care services to reduce the burden on parents after childbirth. In addition, he plans to create a large indoor play area called "Kids Land," where children can play freely regardless of the season or weather.

In particular, he revealed plans to strengthen on-site support systems so that working parents can feel secure even in sudden situations by expanding hospital accompaniment services for sick children, as well as the care systems of "Dureondureon" and "Pocheonaebom365."

In the field of education, Baek Younghyun proposed to expand the operation of Pocheon-style EBS self-directed learning centers and to actively promote projects to establish AI and digital education environments in elementary, middle, and high schools.

He also announced plans to strengthen the career and academic coaching center functions of the Youth Foundation, and to expand native English classes and international exchange projects to build a foundation for nurturing global talents.

Additionally, in connection with advanced industry promotion policies, he will operate youth drone classes and establish an employment track based on the defense industry that links local industry, academia, and research, thereby creating a virtuous cycle in which local talents can grow and settle in the region.

Baek Younghyun said, "I will make Pocheon a city where parents do not have to worry about childcare, children can grow up happily, and no one has to leave because of educational concerns."
