It has been about 1 week for baby SN to start "schooling" at his new nursery known as Kinomi Hoikuen. This is a public nursery under the type of municipal day nurseries administered by the Nishi-ku ward office. It is situated nearby our house which is about 5 minutes away (with car). For the first week, baby SN is put under 'trial basis' which means that we have to make some sort of training before leaving him to the teachers. This is to ensure that the babies send to the nursery can adapted slowly to the system and baby SN passed the training with flying colors! ehehehe.
We've received a description (in Japanese) of all the stuff that we need to prepare for baby SN's entry into daycare, and what is needed on a daily basis such as the futon cover, hand towels, face towels, singlets, diapers and etc.
In the first week there is the Yuenshiki which could be translated as the Welcoming Celebration for all newcomers. We've attended the cermony without knowing the facts that other parents will come to the ceremony wearing a formal dress, therefore kami berdua je yang pakai kemeja + jeans ke majlis tu uhuhu.
(1) General description
Basic nursery hours are operating from 7:00 to 18:00. We can have extended hours until 19:00 but extra fees are charged for extended hours. Usually parents will send their kids up to 8 hours of day care on weekdays and 5 hours on Saturdays. Children must be aged between 35 days and 3 years old to enter this nursery. These nurseries must meet national regulations such as space available, number of staff, school lunch facility, etc.
Each age group in the hoikuen has a name. At Kinomi hoikuen, baby SN is in "MOMO" class. His class is on the second floor with an air conditioner/heater in each room. The kids are given a cap according to their age. Baby SN is wearing a pink cap as he is still under 1 year old. *lucu giler topi tu, macam topi zaman komunis dulu2 .. sebab ada ekor kat belakang ekekeke*
On the ground floor are the toddler classes as well as a toilet room with urinals and toilet stalls with doors, the kitchen, the entrance way and the staff office. There were also a playground at the front yard which consists of a slide for the kids to play.
(2) Meals
Meals are prepared by the cooks and are basically very healthy with portions of vegetables, a meat (generally fish or chicken), often noodles or bread instead of rice, miso soup and milk. As for baby SN, we've told the cook that he can't eat any meat so food baby SN ialah buah2 dan sayur2. The day's meal and afternoon snack can be seen in a glass case in the entrance way when the children are retrieved at the end of the day.

I still provided baby SN's frozen EBM to the nursery as baby SN is still drinking breast milk. According to his teacher, baby SN will cry when he is hungry and will just play on his own when he's full. So, as long as the teacher give him his meals and milk on time, baby SN tak kan nangis atau mengamuk tak tentu pasal. Haisy, kalau kat rumah duk dengan mommy, dah kenyang pun kadang2 nak ngamuk jugak hohohoho.
(3) Diaper policies
Dirty diapers were collected in a labeled bag provided by the parents (standard plastic supermarket bag with baby SN's name written on it with magic marker in katakana) and had to be taken home at the end of the day. Jadi, hari2 lah hubby kena bungkus disposable diapers baby SN dan bawak balik buang kat dustbin di rumah. Baby SN has his own drawer at the nursery where the teacher kept his belongings such as diapers + shirts + pants + towels + apron and etc.
(4) Staff
Qualified nursery staffs take care of several children at their own room according to their age. Usually one nursery staff will be entitled to take care of 3-4 kids. The nursery cannot accept children with fever over 37.5 C or in poor health. If you child gets high fever during nursing hours, you will be asked to pick him up as soon as possible. *read: Hati yang gundah gulana (T_T)*

(5) Fee
As for right now, we don't have to pay the monthly fee because both hubby & I are students which according to the Japanese government as having "no income"....thus, kami dapat hantar baby SN ke nursery secara percuma je .. yippeeeee.
(6) Activities
Last weekend, we were invited to join the sports day at Imazu organized for the older kids at the nursery. Even though baby SN is still small to join the activities, we had some fun to get to know with all the teachers and other parents. The weather on that day was perfect for an outdoor activities like this so everyone seems to enjoy makan2 and get together activity.
Baby SN loves crawling on the ground. He had also made several attempts to walk while holding to our hands. Tapi cikgu baby SN tak bagi pulak kami pimpim tangan baby SN untuk berjalan. According to his teacher, baby SN is only 10th moths old and is not in the age of walking. He should first master his crawling skills for now and to walk on his own when his leg is strong enough to support his body weight.
Starting on this week, hubby will drop me every morning at the Imajuku train station before proceeding to send baby SN to his nursery. We are lucky enough to be able to send baby SN to Kinomi Hoikuen as it is very hard to enter nurseries in Imajuku area due to lack of vacancy. I really hope that Baby SN will learn a lot at his new nursery and I also hope that his new teachers will love him like his previous teachers at Popora Hoikuen. *read: Love Knows No Borders ♥ (T_T) ♥*
