Osan City Expands Summer Vacation Gap-Care Services to 5 Locations

[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Jung Jun-sung] Osan City has decided to expand the operation of Together-Growing Centers (Daha-Gatche Dol-bom) to five locations to minimize childcare gaps for dual-income families, single-parent households, and grandparent-led families with elementary school children.

In accordance with this plan, as summer vacation begins, the city will newly operate summer vacation gap-care services at Segyo Hoban Verdium and Jukmi Village Complex 10, in addition to the existing locations at Osan Gohyeon Elementary School, Jukmi Village Complex 8, and Osan Station L-Crew.

Meanwhile, Osan's gap-care service project has been established as a policy initiative to build an Osan-style all-day childcare ecosystem, starting with morning childcare at the Osan Gohyeon Elementary School civic open library in July 2019, and expanding to include after-school and vacation morning programs.

For detailed information about participating in Osan's all-day childcare gap-care service and applying as a childcare teacher, contact the Osan City Hall Department of Children and Youth (☎031-8036-7883).
