Background of the Expansion of the "Society Childcare" Service

 Because conferences are held in various parts of the country and sometimes on holidays, many researchers and professional parents have voiced their concerns that they cannot leave their children at the daycare centers they usually attend or that it is difficult to secure a place to leave their children while attending the conference.

In recent years, Poppins has received an increasing number of requests from universities, medical associations, and other organizations that run academic conferences for childcare services at the conference venue. In 2024, we have decided to expand and improve our service.
