The city subsidizes daycare fees for children attending Tokyo-certified daycare (ninshō hoikusho) or unlicensed childcare facilities with a certificate showing they meet the guidance and supervision standards, under a contract of 120 hours or more per month. Facilities outside the city are also covered. For the age 0–2 classes in taxable households, it is up to ¥67,000/month regardless of birth order. For the age 3–5 classes, children with a certification of need for childcare (Type 2) receive up to ¥70,300/month: the city's ¥30,000 plus the national free-of-charge portion of ¥40,300. From October 2026, the subsidy also increased for children aged 3–5 without certification and for tax-exempt households with children aged 0–2.

For age 0–2 classes in taxable households, how much per month?

Nationality and residence status

The official page (checked in October 2026) sets no condition on nationality or residence status that we found. Eligibility follows the official conditions, not the language of this page; many programs require resident registration in the municipality.

Who is eligible

Parents whose child is registered as a resident of Fuchu City on the first day of each month and who, on the first day of the month, have a usage contract of 120 hours or more per month with a Tokyo-certified daycare or unlicensed childcare facility

Notes

The daycare fees actually paid are the upper limit. The subsidy is paid every 3 months, 4 times a year, into the parent's bank account. The final application deadline for FY2026 (April 2026–March 2027) is March 8, 2027.Company-led daycare facilities are covered only for taxable households in the age 0–2 classes, at ¥67,000/month (the same as other facilities). Tax-exempt households and the age 3–5 classes are covered not by this subsidy but by the national free early childhood education and care program (ask the facility for details). A usage contract of 120 hours or more per month is required, and when using a community slot, Fuchu City's certification for education and childcare benefits is required.
