Fukuoka City has introduced the “Fukuoka Kindergarten Vacancy Map,” allowing parents to check availability, extended care options, and bus services at kindergartens via smartphone. The service, launched on October 15, follows the success of the city’s “Nursery Guide Map” last year. Mayor Soichiro Takashima said the initiative aims to make childcare information more accessible and encourage working parents to consider kindergartens, which often have open spots compared to nurseries.
