Style necessary when we want priority handling of child such as nursery teacher

※There is an entry field in the form. Please submit it after obtaining proof of your place of employment.

<Priority handling of children of nursery teachers>
In Yokohama City, we are promoting the development of childcare facilities and businesses as a measure for waiting-list children, and securing childcare workers has become an urgent issue. In addition, securing childcare workers is a common issue especially for cities in the Tokyo metropolitan area, and it is expected that the situation will become even more difficult in the future.
Since it is considered that it is difficult for nursery teachers to use nursery schools, etc., it is difficult to secure nursery teachers, targeting nursery teachers who live in Yokohama City and work at nursery schools in Yokohama City Priority handling has been introduced since the usage adjustment in April 2018.
In addition, since the application for use in April 2023, the target qualifications, facilities and businesses have been expanded, and since the application for use in April 2024, the handling has been expanded as follows.
・Priority handling to raise two ranks
・Review the requirements for the number of days and hours of working in the nursery teacher rank (A)
・Nursery teachers living outside the city will be treated in the same way as those living in the city

<Changes in working conditions after entering a nursery school, etc.>
If you apply priority treatment and enter a nursery school, etc., we ask that you continue to work at a nursery school in the city during the period of use such as a nursery school for your child. . If there is a change in the working situation, be sure to notify us as follows.
・Those who live in the city
 Please submit certification change application to ward office Children and Families Support Division of ward where nursery schools are using are located.
・Those who live outside the city
 Please notify the ward office Children and Families Support Division of the ward where the nursery school you are using is located using the employment certificate (*) that shows the change in the working situation.
 ※If you have not re-employed after retiring from a nursery school, please contact the ward office Children and Families Support Division of the ward where the nursery school you are using is located.
