This system is common to the Yokohama Nursery Room, which reduces childcare fees for elementary school studenｔ attending the Yokohama Nursery Room.
Childcare fees paid to the school will be reduced.

Childcare fees are gradually reduced to a maximum of 58,100 yen according to the total municipal tax amount of the household.
For the target households, as of the first day of the month, the total amount of municipal tax for all parents in elementary school studenｔ, which is 2 years old or younger who need childcare living in the city, is 2 years old or younger.
228,900 yen or less ※Households

Amount of reduction
The amount of reduction varies depending on the amount of municipal tax.
We reduce difference between childcare charges that each Yokohama childcare room set and childcare charges after reduction.
※If the difference exceeds the upper limit of the reduction, the amount corresponding to the upper limit is reduced. [Example 1]
In addition, it can be used in conjunction with multiple child reduction. [Example 2]
[Example 1] When the first child (2 years old), burden category a, childcare fee is 50,000 yen
Monthly childcare fee 50,000 yen-Childcare fee lower limit 28,100 yen = 21,900 yen (1)
21,900 yen (1)＞The maximum reduction amount is 20,000 yen, and the smaller amount of 20,000 yen is reduced.
The childcare fee after the reduction will be 50,000 yen per month-20,000 yen per month = 30,000 yen.

[Example 2] When the second child (0 years old), burden category a, childcare fee is 45,000 yen
Monthly childcare fee 45,000 yen-second child reduction 18,000 yen-Childcare fee lower limit 20,100 yen = 6,900 yen (2)
6,900 yen (2) <The maximum reduction amount is 10,000 yen, and the smaller amount of 6,900 yen is reduced.
The childcare fee after the reduction will be 45,000 yen per month-reduction of 6,900 yen-second child reduction of 18,000 yen = 20,100 yen.
(* This is the amount reduced by 18,000 yen for multiple children.)
