Poppins Offers Childcare Solutions During Corporate Seminars

Poppins Family Care, a subsidiary of Poppins Co., Ltd., headquartered in Shibuya, Tokyo, is making significant strides in supporting working parents through its unique temporary childcare services. Recently, they implemented their service at a returning to work seminar organized by Odakyu Electric Railway Co., Ltd. in Shinjuku, Tokyo. Attendees reported that having access to childcare allowed them to fully engage in the seminar, which became a pivotal moment for them to reflect on their careers.

Childcare Service Implementation at the Seminar

Odakyu Electric Railway organized seminars aimed at employees preparing to return to work in the spring. The strategic placement of a childcare room adjacent to the seminar venue fostered a welcoming environment. After the sessions, participants interacted warmly with colleagues alongside their children; this facilitated a supportive workplace atmosphere. Meanwhile, the children enjoyed activities that incorporated EduCare, blending education and childcare, allowing them to flourish in a playful setting.

Creating a Supportive Environment for Returning Parents

Feedback from employees who utilized the childcare services highlighted the positive impact on their experience. One employee expressed gratitude for the reassuring environment, stating, "Being able to leave my child in a safe place allowed me to focus on the seminar. I had the opportunity to gather my thoughts about returning to work and reassess my career path." These seminars provide invaluable networking opportunities, and Poppins’ service helps parents participate with confidence, enabling a smooth transition back to the workforce.

About Poppins' Temporary Childcare Service

Poppins’ temporary childcare services cater to corporate events, seminars, and academic gatherings, providing on-site childcare that supports work-life balance for employees. The services are available for children starting from two months old, and requests should be made at least three weeks prior to the event. Poppins operates nationwide in Japan, though transportation, accommodation, and daily allowances may apply depending on the area.

Understanding Poppins’ EduCare

Poppins integrates EduCare, a blend of education and care, into their childcare philosophy, focusing on the critical development stage of infants and toddlers. This approach not only emphasizes care but also aims to nurture children’s curiosity and self-initiative through engaging activities. Even during temporary care arrangements like those at seminars, Poppins promotes EduCare principles through interaction and playful learning opportunities.

The Role of the Nanny at Poppins

Poppins employs trained nannies, educational babysitters who have undergone rigorous training based on the high standards of renowned educational institutions like Norland College in the UK. These nannies are selected for their exceptional knowledge, skills, and personal qualities, ensuring a high-quality care experience.
