Osaka City will transfer the operation of municipal kindergartens to the private sector based on the basic principles of the Civic Reform Plan.

Regarding private kindergartens and certified children’s homes, please ask the details directly to the kindergarten or children’s home that you want your child(ren) to enter, because admission guidelines differ among kindergartens and children homes.
