We’re a foreign family living in Japan, and our 9-month-old baby is starting hoikuen next month. Since we’re planning to stay here for a few more years, we decided it would be best for him to learn the language and culture from a young age. As first-time parents, we’re a bit anxious about sending him to daycare, especially when it comes to safety and making sure he’s well taken care of. I could take care of him myself, but we feel that hoikuen will be a great experience for him. What should we prepare before he starts? Any advice would be really appreciated!
