The village subsidizes daycare fees and related costs paid by parents of children using daycare centers, certified centers for early childhood education and care (nintei kodomo-en), kindergartens, and similar. These include the amount parents paid excluding the national free-childcare benefit (facility usage benefit), and the side-dish cost (fukushoku-hi).

Fees at unlicensed childcare facilities are covered by the subsidy for users of unlicensed childcare facilities.
