Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a collection of childcare facility operation support sheets and a childcare facility operation support sheet related to administrative work in a childcare facility. In particular, it is for childcare workers, teachers, kindergarten principals, facility managers, etc. (hereinafter referred to as staff) working in a childcare facility to streamline administrative work, reduce excessive workloads, and support the smooth operation of a childcare facility including childcare activities. A collection of childcare facility operation support sheets and a childcare facility operation support sheet are provided.

Background Art

[0002] The work in a childcare facility includes not only childcare activities for children but also a lot of administrative work, and all of these fall under childcare work. Administrative work in childcare work plays an important role in supporting the quality of childcare activities. By properly conducting administrative work such as a children's attendance record, childcare log, safety management, accident records, and grasping / confirming the communication status with parents, safe and high-quality childcare can be provided. These tasks are indispensable and form the basis for preventing accidents and supporting the smooth operation of a childcare facility. The efficient progress of administrative work is important for creating an environment where staff, especially on-site staff who interact directly with children, can concentrate on their original childcare work.

[0003] For example, when the daily life record book and the children's attendance record are managed separately, the confirmation of absence notifications may be insufficient, and the absence of children who have not come to the kindergarten may not be noticed, which may lead to a serious incident as a result. Also, when the safety management confirmation status of the childcare facility, information on children with allergies, and information on lunch and supplementary food are managed on separate sheets of paper, every time you try to check the necessary information during childcare, it takes time to select and check the corresponding sheet from multiple sheets, which has been a factor in reducing work efficiency.

[0004] Furthermore, the large number of forms that need to be filled out in daily operations makes administrative work cumbersome, reducing the time that should be dedicated to childcare. Therefore, in recent years, the use of ICT in all aspects of childcare operations has been progressing. For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a system aimed at supporting operations in childcare facilities. [Prior art documents] [Patent Documents]

[0005] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Publication No. 2022-72432 [Overview of the Initiative] [Problems that the invention aims to solve]

[0006] However, in childcare settings, there are many cases where staff are confused about how to use the system, and as a result, it does not lead to a reduction in the burden of administrative work. During audits, inspections, and third-party evaluations, staff must prepare documents listing the required items based on daily administrative records, and this process is a significant burden. Therefore, the present invention was made to solve the problems of the prior art described above, and its purpose is to provide a collection of childcare facility operation support sheets and childcare facility operation support sheets that are easy to handle, improve the efficiency of administrative work, support the smooth and safe operation of childcare facilities, can be used as a useful tool in staff training and development, and cover items that are required to be submitted or presented during audits, inspections, and third-party evaluations. [Means for solving the problem]

[0007] The tenth childcare facility operation support sheet according to the present invention is provided with multiple information entry fields for information about facility operation to be filled in by the staff of the childcare facility, the information entry fields include an overtime work and leave management year and month entry field 92b for which the year and month subject to overtime work and leave management is entered, an employee name entry field for which the names of multiple staff members working at the childcare facility are entered, and a corresponding field for each of the names of the staff members entered in the employee name entry field. attach The following fields are used to record the number of paid leave days granted to the employee from the year following their employment, as of the beginning of the month recorded in the overtime work information entry field 92b; the number of paid leave days carried over from the previous year, as of the beginning of the month recorded in the overtime work and leave management information entry field 95b; the number of paid leave days carried over from the previous year, as of the beginning of the month recorded in the overtime work and leave management information entry field 92b; and the number of paid leave days taken by the employee during the prescribed period, as of the beginning of the month recorded in the overtime work information entry field 99b. This is a section for entering information about the responsibilities of each staff member within a childcare facility, where at least one set of responsibilities indicating the assigned class is pre-filled, and the staff member's responsibilities are selected and entered from among these multiple sets of responsibilities. 91b is provided at least Furthermore, the overtime work information entry field 93b is pre-filled with entry boxes that are divided into predetermined unit time intervals to indicate overtime work, and is configured so that the overtime work information performed by the employee is entered in each of the entry boxes. Yes, they are.

[0008] The childcare facility operation support sheet collection according to the present invention is a collection of childcare facility operation support sheets comprising a plurality of childcare facility operation support sheets, wherein the plurality of childcare facility operation support sheets include at least the tenth childcare facility operation support sheet. [Effects of the Invention]

[0009] According to the tenth childcare facility operation support sheet of the present invention, the director or person in charge can see at a glance who is working how many hours of overtime by referring to the information entered in the overtime work information entry section 93b. This information is also useful when it is necessary to urgently request someone to work overtime, preventing an imbalance in the workload on specific staff members and enabling a fair and balanced work system overall. Planned leave and sudden absences by staff members can also be grasped simply by looking at the childcare facility operation support sheet, without the need for verbal communication between multiple staff members. Paperwork can be reduced and administrative work can be made more efficient, supporting the smooth and safe operation of childcare facilities.

[0010] According to the childcare facility operation support sheet collection of the present invention, each childcare facility operation support sheet included in the collection has multiple information entry fields to be filled out by childcare facility staff or guardians, for entering at least one piece of information related to childcare activities, facility operation, or facility management according to the role of each childcare facility operation support sheet. Furthermore, items that need to be filled out according to the role of each childcare facility operation support sheet are pre-filled in each field, so that many items to be filled out can be completed quickly and concisely without forgetting anything. When there is information that needs to be confirmed or understood regarding childcare activities, facility operation, or facility management, it can be grasped at a glance simply by checking the information entry fields of each childcare facility operation support sheet without having to communicate verbally among multiple staff members. This reduces paperwork, streamlines administrative work, and supports the smooth and safe operation of childcare facilities. [Brief explanation of the drawing]

[Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0012] The following describes preferred embodiments of the childcare facility operation support sheet collection and childcare facility operation support sheet according to the present invention, with reference to the attached drawings. However, the embodiments described below are merely illustrative, and there is no intention to exclude various modifications or applications of technologies not explicitly stated below. The drawings are schematic and do not necessarily correspond to actual dimensions or proportions. There may also be parts where the relationships between dimensions and proportions differ between drawings. Furthermore, in order to avoid unnecessary redundancy in the following explanation and to facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art, detailed explanations of already well-known matters and redundant explanations of substantially identical configurations may be omitted.

[0013] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of a childcare facility operation support sheet collection 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The childcare facility operation support sheet collection 100 is composed of a plurality of childcare facility operation support sheets 1 to 9, and each childcare facility operation support sheet 1 to 9 is required to have a plurality of information entry fields to be filled in by childcare facility staff or guardians, for filling in at least one piece of information related to childcare activities, facility operation, or facility management according to the role of each childcare facility operation support sheet 1 to 9.

[0014] Information regarding childcare activities includes, for example, childcare policies and goals (targets for each month and age), childcare plans (annual, monthly, weekly, and daily plans), implementation of events (seasonal events, evacuation drills, etc.), records of children's development and daily life (developmental records, communication notebooks, records of individual support, etc.), children's health status, and information regarding each child's living and upbringing environment. Information related to facility operations includes, for example, information regarding staff work shift management, staff annual leave management, and staff education and training activities. Information related to facility management includes, for example, safety inspections of equipment (air conditioning, electrical systems, security equipment, playground equipment, furnishings, etc.), implementation of evacuation drills and disaster prevention measures, and management of items and traffic flow related to infectious disease control.

[0015] The use and operation of each of the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheets 1 through 9 included in the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet Collection 100 shall be carried out in accordance with Rulebook 5A (hereinafter referred to as "Rulebook 5A"), which systematically covers the practical aspects of childcare facility management. Figures 2A through 2L show the overall floor plan of Rulebook 5A.

[0016] Rulebook 5A is a guide that systematically outlines all the fundamental principles and policies related to childcare practices, including childcare planning, facility management, and staff training. Furthermore, Rulebook 5A is a fundamental document to refer to when making decisions in childcare practices and facility management, and it forms the foundation for supporting the operation of childcare facilities, including instructions on how to use the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheets 100. Rulebook 5A is included in Childcare Facility Management Support Sheets 5, which will be discussed later.

[0017] Furthermore, Rulebook 5A also serves as an "important information document" that childcare facilities provide to parents, making it an important document for ensuring transparency and reliability in childcare. Rulebook 5A is provided by the childcare facility to the parents, and after the parents fill in the child information section 37 (child's name, date of birth, and enrolled class), they keep and retain the form. Furthermore, the retention year designation column 31 in Rulebook 5A contains multiple numbers representing years, and is primarily intended for specifying the retention year in childcare facilities. The specific usage of the retention year designation column 31 and the child information entry column 37 will be explained in detail later in the explanation of Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 1.

[0018] For example, page 1 of Rulebook 5A (Figure 2A) outlines the basic principles of childcare provided by childcare facilities, outlining the core childcare philosophy and policies that underpin facility management. In particular, it clearly states comprehensive childcare guidelines that go beyond simply defining childcare hours and extended childcare, and instead view childcare from a 24-hour perspective, rather than limiting it to activities within the childcare facility. It states the fundamental position that childcare is not limited to the time spent at the childcare facility, but rather encompasses the entire 24-hour life of each child, providing continuous and ongoing support. Specifically, it clarifies the organization and positioning of institutional timeframes such as childcare hours and extended childcare within childcare facilities, while also stating that the quality of childcare is supported by collaboration between families and facilities to regulate children's daily rhythms and enhance the quality of childcare. Rather than simply outlining work procedures, the aim is to share the fundamental philosophy that childcare is about supporting a child's entire 24-hour life, and to foster a common understanding not only among staff but also with parents.

[0019] Page 2 of Rulebook 5A (Figure 2B) contains an overall plan of childcare activities formulated with a view to childcare activities in the childcare facility. It systematically describes childcare goals and event schedules according to the children's age in months, developmental objectives, and activity policies regarding health, food education, and safety, and is an important plan that forms the pillar of childcare throughout the year. Long-term plans, which will be explained in detail in the later explanation of Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 5, are formulated based on this overall plan. Figure 2M is an enlarged view of the upper half of Figure 2B, and Figure 2N is an enlarged view of the lower half of Figure 2B.

[0020] Page 3 of Rulebook 5A (Figure 2C) clearly outlines the items children should bring, the necessary preparations, and the estimated amounts for actual costs to be charged, providing guidance to parents. It also comprehensively lists all necessary items used in the childcare facility, serving as a clear guideline that "nothing else is needed." Beyond providing reassuring information to parents, it also clarifies the boundaries of necessary preparations by listing all items required at the childcare facility, preventing excessive burden and confusion. Note that actual costs may fluctuate due to price changes, etc. Therefore, a fixed amount is presented to parents each year (Page 11 of Rulebook 5A (Figure 2K)).

[0021] Page 4 of Rulebook 5A (Figure 2D) contains information on the capacity of each class, the required number of staff, and staff shift schedules. In addition to safety management information such as evacuation routes, fire extinguishing equipment installation status, and AED locations in childcare facilities, it also covers key points regarding the operation of temporary childcare and after-school clubs, making it a comprehensive information page that supports the practical aspects of facility management and safety assurance.

[0022] Pages 5 and 6 of Rulebook 5A (Figures 2E and 2F) comprehensively contain important information related to the operation of the childcare facility. Specifically, it outlines the basic policy regarding the purpose and handling of information concerning children and their guardians, the job descriptions of staff, the policy regarding meal provision, and guidelines for disaster response (including guidance on evacuation centers and methods for handing over children to guardians). It also describes the system for conducting health checkups, initiatives regarding hygiene management, and the details of the various insurance policies the facility holds. Furthermore, it includes operational policies regarding guardian participation in childcare and individual consultations, as well as information on contact points for receiving opinions and consultations, contributing to the establishment of a collaborative system with guardians.

[0023] Pages 7 and 8 of Rulebook 5A (Figures 2G and 2H) contain requests from childcare facilities to parents. The main content includes explanations of the specific conditions under which childcare facilities may be unable to accept children. It also specifies matters to be communicated regarding arrival and departure, and requests that parents contact the facility in advance if there are any delays, early departures, or changes in the person picking up or dropping off the child. In addition, it includes guidelines for how to respond if a child is injured at the childcare facility, guidelines for contacting parents regarding changes in health such as fever or diarrhea, guidelines for the period from observation to acclimatization, methods for contacting and responding to missing items, and instructions for using the communication notebook. This framework is designed to ensure effective communication with parents not only in emergencies but also in everyday situations.

[0024] Page 9 of Rulebook 5A (Figure 2I) outlines a guideline for the annual plan regarding evacuation drills, events involving parents, and staff meetings and training at childcare facilities. For example, an earthquake evacuation drill is planned for the fourth Wednesday of April, and by that date, the "mass email distribution registration procedure" is scheduled to be completed. Furthermore, training on how to use the childcare facility operation support sheet 8, described later, is also planned. Figure 2I is a rough guideline, and the official schedule is determined each year after coordination with other organizations, etc. (Page 12 of Rulebook 5A (Figure 2L)).

[0025] Page 10 of Rulebook 5A (Figure 2J) includes a consent form that parents sign to acknowledge that Rulebook 5A also serves as an "Important Matters Explanation Document," and that they have received an explanation of important matters regarding the childcare facility they are enrolling in and agree to its contents. This consent form is to confirm that parents understand and agree to the facility's operating policies, childcare content, and usage regulations before commencing childcare. There is a copy for the parents' records and another copy that is to be cut out and attached to the consent form attachment section 35 of the Childcare Facility Operation Support Sheet 3 (described later), and stored appropriately within the facility.

[0026] Pages 11 and 12 of Rulebook 5A (Figures 2K and 2L) are created annually. Other pages of Rulebook 5A refer to pages 11 and 12 as "Supplementary Explanation of Important Matters." Page 11 of Rulebook 5A (Figure 2K) primarily includes information on the amounts to be charged, the costs and hours of temporary childcare and after-school clubs, and the location of each class. It also includes information on disaster preparedness, such as the name of the disaster prevention manager, contact information for cooperating emergency services, police stations, and contracted doctors, and the location of evacuation sites, clarifying the emergency preparedness system. Page 12 of Rulebook 5A (Figure 2L) contains the annual schedule for evacuation drills, events involving parents, and staff meetings and training, which have been decided after coordination with other organizations.

[0027] The following will explain each of the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheets 1 through 9 included in the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet Collection 100, using diagrams. Note that the items pre-filled on each Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 1 through 9 are referred to as "pre-filled information," the act of staff or guardians filling out the sheet is referred to as "completion," and "pre-filled information" and "completion" are collectively referred to as "recording."

[0028] Each childcare facility operation support sheet, from 1 to 9, is structured in an order that staff should acquire and utilize the information in a step-by-step manner. An overview is provided below. (1) Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 1 (Most Important) This sheet records information related to safety and emergencies, such as near-miss reports, accident reports, methods for sharing medication information, and methods for sharing information about illnesses. It is a sheet that all staff members should learn to use first, and it is also the first step in staff training. (2) Childcare facility operation support sheet 2 Daily life records, journals, individual records, and information on actual expenses are recorded. These are important for recording the daily lives and growth of children in childcare facilities. In addition, information on daily environmental safety checks is recorded. (3) Childcare facility operation support sheet 3 The child's information, the family information of the child enrolled, and information regarding the child's health and medical care are recorded. In addition, a consent form cut out from the aforementioned rulebook 5A is attached. (4) Childcare facility operation support sheet 4 Records related to newsletters sent from childcare facilities to parents, and notification documents regarding the collection of items from parents are recorded here. (5) Childcare facility operation support sheet 5 Various plans related to childcare activities are recorded. Furthermore, the aforementioned Rulebook 5A is managed together with the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 5. (6) Childcare facility operation support sheet 6 Self-evaluations conducted by staff members reflecting on their own work, evaluations of the facility (organization) by staff members, and performance evaluations by supervisors are recorded. (7) Childcare facility operation support sheet 7 A daily log is kept at the childcare facility. (8) Childcare facility operation support sheet 8 The health status of staff members and their cohabitants will be recorded. (9) Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 9 (Final Acquisition Level) Work shifts, overtime work, and annual paid leave information are recorded. Childcare facility operation support sheet 9 requires coordination and understanding of the entire operation, and is intended to be mastered by experienced staff.

[0029] The Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet Collection 100, consisting of Childcare Facility Management Support Sheets 1 through 9, including Rulebook 5A, is also an important tool for staff training. Upon arrival, staff should begin by learning to use Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 1 and progress through the sheets, aiming to eventually be able to use up to Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 9. Staff are expected to progress through the sheets sequentially, referring back to Rulebook 5A, understanding the overall picture in accordance with the principles outlined in Rulebook 5A, and ultimately becoming proficient in using up to Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 9. The records in each sheet included in the 100-sheet collection of childcare facility management support sheets cover all the items that are required to be submitted or presented in situations such as audits, inspections, and third-party evaluations, thus eliminating or significantly reducing the preparation work required for these processes.

[0030] <Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 1> Figure 3 is an overall plan view of the childcare facility operation support sheet 1 according to this embodiment. Figures 4A to 4C are examples of how to fill out the childcare facility operation support sheet 1. The childcare facility operation support sheet 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention is an example of a first childcare facility operation support sheet included in the childcare facility operation support sheet collection 100, and the information entry fields, which mainly contain information related to childcare activities, are configured to include at least the following: an entry content specification field 11 that specifies which of the following matters the first childcare facility operation support sheet is to be entered: an accident situation entry field 15 in which the circumstances of the accident or near miss are entered; a child information entry field 17 in which the information of the child who is the subject of the accident, near miss, medication, or illness is entered; a content entry field 16 in which a figure 18 resembling a child is depicted and specific details regarding the accident, near miss, medication, or illness are entered; and a retention year specification field 12 in which multiple numbers representing years are displayed and the childcare facility operation support sheet 1 is to be retained until which year.

[0031] Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 1 is a sheet for recording information regarding accidents or near misses that occurred during childcare, medication information indicating drugs to be given to children entrusted to the care of their parents, and illness information indicating the children's health status. Of Childcare Facility Management Support Sheets 1 through 9, this is the most important sheet that staff should learn to use first. In the annual plan for staff meetings and training stipulated in Rulebook 5A (see Figures 2I and 2L), training on this sheet, including for prospective employees, is planned for February. In the designated section 11 of the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 1, it is possible to specify which of the following items the entry pertains to: accidents or near misses that occurred during childcare work, medication information, or information regarding illnesses. Specifically, by simply marking the relevant item with a confirmation mark (e.g., a circle or check), it is immediately clear which item the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 1 is being used for.

[0032] Figure 4A shows an example of how to fill out the childcare facility operation support sheet 1 when an accident occurs during childcare. The retention period designation column 12 contains multiple numbers representing years and is used to specify the retention period, indicating until what year the relevant childcare facility operation support sheet 1 should be kept. Depending on the information recorded on the childcare facility operation support sheet 1, the required retention period is determined by law. For example, if retention is required for 10 years from the date of entry, the number representing 10 years after the year of entry should be circled. In the example shown in the figure, "35" is circled, indicating that retention is required until 2035.

[0033] The date on which the accident or near miss occurred should be entered in the date entry field 14. As shown in the example in the diagram, the weather may be circled, or the field may be configured to allow for the entry of humidity information. The circumstances of the accident or near miss (hereinafter simply referred to as "accident"), such as the location and time of the accident, should be entered in the accident circumstances entry field 15. In the example of the accident circumstances entry field 15, instructions for entries are provided for "time elapsed since the accident," "environmental configuration," "place of visit" if a hospital was visited, "city hall report" if a report was made to the local government, "specific details and treatment of the injury," "initial findings at the time of visit," and "treatment plan, etc." Staff members should use this as a guideline to enter the necessary information in each field. Note that "city hall report" is shown in the diagram, but this is just an example; reporting to the "administrative agency in charge of the childcare facility" is also acceptable.

[0034] Enter the child's information in the child information entry field 17. The example in the diagram shows the child's date of birth and name, and the child's age circled. In the content entry section 16, enter specific details about the accident, such as the timeline of the accident and the environmental conditions. The content entry section 16 also contains a figure 18 of a child. Mark the parts of the figure 18 that relate to the accident. For example, if the child twisted their wrist, draw a box around the wrist area of ​​the figure 18 to indicate this; if the child hit their head and got a bump, draw a box around the head area of ​​the figure 18 to indicate this. The environmental conditions can be described in writing or drawn as a diagram. Report the accident to the parents of the child involved and have them sign the report.

[0035] Looking at the childcare facility operation support sheet 1 in Figure 4A, you can see at a glance the specific details of the incident, including the timeline of events, the environmental configuration depicted in the diagram, and the time of the incident, such as "Hanako Tokachi was bitten on the right wrist while playing in the sandbox."

[0036] In addition to the case explained in Figure 4A, for example, if a child trips over scattered toys in the nursery room, twists their right wrist, and requires hospital treatment, the time of the fall should be recorded in "Time of Incident," the environmental factors such as "toys were scattered around the room, and although staff were nearby, they were unable to help at the moment of the fall" should be recorded in "Environmental Composition," and the name of the hospital visited should be recorded in "Hospital Visit." Then, the specific details of the accident should be written in the content entry section 16, and a mark should be made on the right wrist portion of the doll figure 18.

[0037] Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 1 not only allows staff to instantly grasp the information that needs to be filled in when an accident occurs, but it also facilitates information sharing among staff after completion. In other words, by understanding accident information from other classes, awareness of preventing similar accidents is heightened, awareness of risks in daily childcare is strengthened, and the quality of safety management is improved. Furthermore, by having everyone understand examples of responses after an accident, future responses will be standardized, and hesitation in decision-making will be reduced. Moreover, it can be copied and used as documents to be submitted to government offices, reports to insurance companies, and as material for accident prevention measures in accident prevention committees, etc., making it a highly practical sheet that can be used for multiple purposes.

[0038] Figure 4B shows an example of how to fill out the childcare facility operation support sheet 1 when receiving medication from a parent or guardian. Note that in the following explanation, sections identical to those in Figure 4A will be omitted. When receiving medication from a parent or guardian to give to a child, the specific details should be written in the details entry section 16. If the medication is an ointment to be applied to the child's body, the application area should be indicated in the doll figure 18.

[0039] After filling in each section, have the child's parents review the childcare facility operation support sheet 1 and sign the accident details section 15. Looking at the childcare facility operation support sheet 1 in Figure 4B, it is immediately clear that "Apply the atopic dermatitis ointment to Taro Nippon 2-3 times a day to both arms and behind both knees." Furthermore, as shown in the example in Figure 4B, the medication can be attached to the margin of the content entry section 16 with adhesive tape or similar.

[0040] Figure 4C shows an example of how to fill out the childcare facility operation support sheet 1 when recording patient information. In the following explanation, sections that are the same as those in Figure 4A or Figure 4B will be omitted. Childcare facility operation support sheet 1 is created, for example, one sheet for each class's illness information and one sheet for the entire childcare facility's illness information. Section 13, which contains instructions for information to be entered, provides an example of required information. Staff members should use this as a guide to fill in the necessary information in each section. When an infectious disease outbreak occurs, information about the illness should be entered in Section 16, based on the instructions in Section 13.

[0041] Figure 4C shows an example of infection information recorded for the entire childcare facility. By looking at the childcare facility operation support sheet 1 in the same figure, you can see at a glance which class has how many cases of infectious disease, what the infection is, the incubation period, whether or not a return-to-school permit was issued, the symptoms, and prevention methods. The childcare facility operation support sheet 1, which contains information on infections throughout the entire childcare facility, should be enlarged to a size suitable for posting (for example, A5 or A4 to A3) and posted in a place where all parents can see it. This will lead to increased awareness of infection prevention within the home, and parents will be more attentive than usual in observing and monitoring their children's health. Furthermore, it will enhance transparency and trust by demonstrating that the childcare facility is disclosing infectious disease information.

[0042] According to the childcare facility operation support sheet 1 of the present invention, there is a section 11 for specifying which of the following matters is to be entered: an accident, near-miss incident, medication information, or illness information that occurred during work; a section 17 for entering child information; a section 16 for entering specific details about the accident, near-miss incident, medication, or illness, which includes a figure 18 of a child modeled after a child where the part related to the accident, near-miss incident, medication, or illness is entered; and a section 12 for specifying the retention year. Therefore, it can be used according to the purpose, and the situation regarding the accident, near-miss incident, medication information, or illness information can be easily understood and grasped at a glance. Since the items that need to be entered are pre-filled in each section, many items that need to be entered can be entered quickly and concisely without forgetting anything. Multiple staff members can grasp matters related to accidents, near-miss incidents, medication, or illness simply by looking at the childcare facility operation support sheet, without having to communicate verbally to each other. By reducing paperwork and streamlining administrative tasks, it is possible to support the smooth and safe operation of childcare facilities.

[0043] In this embodiment, the childcare facility operation support sheet 1 is described as an example of the information entry fields of the present invention, and is an example that includes information entry fields mainly for information related to childcare activities, namely, a field for specifying entry content 11, a field for specifying retention year 12, a field for entering date 14, a field for entering accident details 15, a field for entering content 16, and a field for entering child information 17.

[0044] <Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 2> Figure 5 is an overall plan view of the childcare facility operation support sheet 2 according to this embodiment. Figures 6 and 7 are examples of how to fill out the childcare facility operation support sheet 2. To make the contents and entries of the childcare facility operation support sheet 2 easier to understand, Figure 6 shows an enlarged view of the upper left portion of the childcare facility operation support sheet 2, and Figure 7 shows an enlarged view of the upper right portion of the childcare facility operation support sheet 2.

[0045] The childcare facility operation support sheet 2 according to an embodiment of the present invention is an example of a second childcare facility operation support sheet included in the collection of childcare facility operation support sheets, and is a timetable in which the daily flow of a childcare facility is divided into multiple time periods, and the time identification information for specifying a time is described in the time period in which the time in question is included, and the information entry field, in which mainly information related to childcare activities, facility operation, or facility management is entered, contains the time identification information 26 which specifies the time when an environmental safety inspection should be conducted, and the environmental safety inspection status entry field 212 in which the status of the environmental safety inspection is entered, and the time when the time when administrative work should be performed is specified The configuration must include at least one section: a section for recording the status of administrative tasks, which contains specific information 26 and the administrative tasks to be performed at that time; a section for recording the status of administrative tasks, which contains specific information 26 and the administrative tasks to be performed at that time; and a section for recording the daily life and childcare record, which contains a line drawn continuously with the time division lines of the timetable 23 for each child to represent the time period, and in which the child's arrival time and departure time are recorded in the corresponding time period, and in which the details of the child's visual examination and childcare log are recorded in a section other than the time period in which the details of the child's visual examination and the class log of the target class of the second childcare facility operation support sheet are recorded.

[0046] The Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 2 is a sheet that allows for the centralized management of many records necessary for childcare operations, such as daily life records, attendance registers, physical examination forms, environmental safety inspection work checklists, administrative work checklists, meal slips, childcare diaries, health and nap records, personal information management forms, and actual expense collection records. By filling in the necessary information on the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 2, it becomes possible to consolidate all the information onto a single sheet of paper approximately A4 size, enabling efficient recording and storage. Furthermore, since it also serves as a roster containing the names of the children, the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 2 can be used to record and store information regarding the enrollment / graduation (withdrawal) of children entrusted to the childcare facility (childcare register).

[0047] First, we will explain how to use the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 2 to centrally manage many records necessary for childcare operations, such as daily life records, attendance registers, physical examination forms, environmental safety inspection work checklists, administrative work checklists, meal slips, childcare diaries, health and nap records, personal information management forms, and expense collection records.

[0048] Use one Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 2 per class per day. If the number of children in a class is large and it is not possible to record all children in the daily life record / childcare register record section 24 described later, you may use multiple Childcare Facility Management Support Sheets 2, and record the work record section 21, meal information entry section 22, and actual expense collection entry section 25 only on the first page of the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 2 and bind them together.

[0049] Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 2 may be prepared in advance by making copies for the number of days in the month, with information for the month in which it will be used (April in the example in Figure 5), each child's name and date of birth, the name of the facility, the address of the facility, the telephone number of the facility, the name of the homeroom teacher, and the name of the director already filled in.

[0050] The childcare facility operation support sheet 2 consists of a date entry field 20, a work record field 21, a meal information entry field 22, a timetable field 23, a daily life record / childcare register entry field 24, and an actual expense collection entry field 25. The date entry field 20 is for recording the date of use of the childcare facility operation support sheet 2. The meal information entry field 22 is located between the work record field 21 and the timetable 23, near the center of the childcare facility operation support sheet 2 in the vertical direction.

[0051] The work record section 21 consists of a shooting information entry section 211 in which the status of video or photo shooting and the status of deletion of said shooting data are recorded, an environmental safety inspection status entry section 212 in which the status of environmental safety inspections is recorded, and an administrative work status entry section 213 in which the status of administrative work is recorded.

[0052] When a video or photograph is taken during childcare, the staff member signs in the "Image / Video Taken" section of the shooting information entry section 211. Then, when the taken video or photograph is deleted from the recording device, the staff member signs in the "Image / Video Deleted" section. Furthermore, when the deletion is confirmed, the staff member signs in the "Deletion Confirmed" section. It is desirable that these signatures be made by two or more staff members. Through these procedures, it becomes possible to ensure that captured images and videos are deleted and that personal information is managed appropriately and securely.

[0053] Timetable 23 outlines the daily routine at the childcare facility, divided into multiple time slots. Some time slots in Timetable 23 include time-specific information 26 to specify the time. For example, "71" and "72" in time-specific information 26 specify the time 7:00, while "73" and "74" in time-specific information 26 specify the time 7:15. Strictly speaking, specifying 7:00 can be rephrased as specifying the time slot from 7:00 to 7:15, starting at 7:00. However, since the statement "conduct environmental safety inspections and administrative tasks between 7:00 and 7:15" could be interpreted as allowing them to start 15 minutes after the specified time, in the following explanation, time-specific information 26 will be described as specifying the "time" rather than the "time slot" in which environmental safety inspections and administrative tasks should be performed.

[0054] The Environmental Safety Inspection Status Record Section 212 includes corresponding time identification information 26 to specify the time when the environmental safety inspection should be conducted, and staff identification information 28 to identify the staff member responsible for the environmental safety inspection. For example, if the staff identification information 28 is "7:00 AM", it specifies that the staff member responsible for the environmental safety inspection is on the 7:00 AM shift.

[0055] For example, "71 7:00 / Environmental Safety Setting Inspection" indicates that the staff on the 7:00 shift are required to conduct an environmental safety setting inspection at the time specified by time identification information 26, "71". The staff working the 7:00 shift will conduct the environmental safety setting inspection at 7:00, the time specified by time identification information 26, and will circle the inspected items and sign the inspection report. In the example in Figure 6, it is immediately clear that staff member "A-yama" on the 7:00 shift conducted an environmental safety inspection at 7:00, the time specified by time identification information 26, checking multiple items such as "Is it safe?", "Is it hygienic?", "Is it comfortable?", and "Is it a playable environment?".

[0056] Similarly, "919:00 / Environmental Safety Setting Inspection" indicates that the staff on the 9:00 shift are required to perform an environmental safety setting inspection at the time specified by time identification information 26, "91". The staff member working the 9:00 AM shift will perform the environmental safety setting inspection at 16:45, the time specified by time identification information 26, and will circle the inspected items and sign the inspection report. In the example in Figure 6, it is immediately clear that staff member "C-gawa" on the 9:00 shift performed an environmental safety inspection on multiple items at 16:45, the time specified by time identification information 26.

[0057] Environmental safety checks are conducted before the start of childcare or before children are allowed into the childcare room, at 7:00 by the 7:00 shift staff (time identification information 26 is "71") and at 8:00 by the 8:00 shift staff (time identification information 26 is "81"). Environmental safety checks are conducted in the childcare room after the children have arrived and left, at 16:45 by the 9:00 shift staff (time identification information 26 is "91") and at 19:45 by the 11:00 shift staff (time identification information 26 is "111").

[0058] When a problem occurs, the staff member who conducted the environmental safety inspection is clearly identified by the staff member identification information 28, making it easier to pinpoint the cause. For example, if a problem is found during the 7:00 AM environmental safety inspection by the staff member on the 7:00 AM shift the following morning, it can be determined whether the environmental safety inspection conducted at 4:45 PM by the staff member on the 9:00 AM shift the previous evening (or, if childcare hours are long, the environmental safety inspection conducted at 7:45 PM by the staff member on the 11:00 PM shift the previous evening) was not conducted properly, or whether an intruder, such as a thief, entered the premises.

[0059] Thus, the staff identification information 28 clearly indicates the staff member in charge by the start time of their shift, rather than using vague expressions such as "early shift" or "late shift." This prevents delays in the start of environmental safety inspections and ensures that inspections are carried out reliably at the designated time.

[0060] The administrative work status entry section 213 contains time-specific information 26 to identify the time when administrative work should be performed, and the content of the administrative work to be performed at that time. For example, "72 Open Entrance / Morning Nursery Room" indicates the administrative work to be performed at the time specified by time-specific information 26 as "72," namely "Open Entrance / Morning Nursery Room." At 7:00, the time specified by time-specific information 26, the staff member who performed the administrative work, such as opening the facility entrance (entrance) and nursery room doors and locks, ventilating the premises, and opening windows and curtains, signs the administrative work status entry. In the example in Figure 6, it is immediately clear that staff member "A-yama" performed the administrative work related to opening the facility at 7:00, the time specified by time-specific information 26.

[0061] In addition, "Moving to Class 82 and Collecting Communication Notes" indicates the business operation content of "Moving to Class and Collecting Communication Notes" to be performed at the time when the time-specific information 26 is "82". At the time of 9:00 specified by the time-specific information 26, move to the nursery room of the class together with the children, collect the communication notes filled in by the guardians to convey the matters to be communicated to the nursery teachers, check and collect the content that requires special attention, such as poor physical condition and the situation at home, etc., and the staff who has performed the business operation signs as the business operation status. In the example of FIG. 6, it can be seen at a glance that the staff "C Chuan" has performed the business operation at the time of 9:00 specified by the time-specific information 26. [[ID=​​​​​​​​

[0064] Furthermore, in the Environmental Safety Inspection Status Record Section 212 and the Administrative Work Status Record Section 213, the times identified by the Time Identification Information 26 are listed in chronological order. In the Administrative Work Status Record Section 213, the administrative work to be performed at that time is listed near the Time Identification Information 26, allowing for a quick grasp of the next administrative task to be performed and making it easier to understand the daily flow of administrative work. In particular, this helps new employees and those undergoing training to grasp the workflow and deepen their understanding of their work, preventing errors and delays due to lack of skills.

[0065] Below Timetable 23 is the Life Record / Childcare Record Section 24. The Life Record / Childcare Record Section 24 already contains the names of the children, etc., and a line is drawn that is continuous with the time division lines of Timetable 23 to indicate the time slot for each child. The time slots in Timetable 23 are divided into two sections: the first half from 9:00 to 13:45 and the second half from 14:00 to 20:00. Children mainly arrive at the nursery during the first half and leave during the second half. When a child arrives at the nursery, a staff member records the child's arrival time within the time period that includes that arrival time. When a child leaves the nursery, a staff member records the child's departure time within the time period that includes that departure time.

[0066] Then, in the sections other than the time slots indicated, the details of the child's visual examination and the childcare log, or the details of the child's visual examination and the class log for the target class on the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 2, are recorded. The visual examination details are recorded by staff members who visually check the child's health condition upon arrival at the nursery, and also by confirming with the parents whether there are any health problems or injuries. For example, if the target classes for the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 2 are the 0-year-old class, the 1-year-old class, and the 2-year-old class, a childcare log should be filled out for each child. On the other hand, if the target classes for the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 2 are the 3-year-old class, the 4-year-old class, and the 5-year-old class, a class log should be filled out.

[0067] Figures 6 and 7 show examples of completed childcare facility operation support sheets 2 for a class of five-year-olds. The visual examination findings and class log are recorded in the sections other than the time slots where arrival and departure times are recorded. For example, in the section for child "Yamada Mariko," the arrival time "8:15" is first recorded, along with the visual examination finding "runny nose," and the departure time "14:00" is recorded upon departure. Arrival times, visual examination findings, and departure times are also recorded for other children. After all children in the class have left, the class log is recorded in the life record / childcare record section 24, for example, by the homeroom teacher. In the example in Figure 7, the class log, the number of children present, and the homeroom teacher's signature are recorded.

[0068] For example, if the target classes for the childcare facility operation support sheet 2 are the 0-year-old class, the 1-year-old class, and the 2-year-old class, then instead of a class log, a childcare log will be entered in the life record / childcare register record section 24. Figure 8 shows an example of how to fill out the life record / childcare register record section 24 when a childcare log is entered for each child. As with Figure 7, the number of attendees and the signature of the staff member in charge will be entered (not shown). Generally, children's arrival and departure times are concentrated in specific time slots. Therefore, the remaining time slots are often blank. By effectively utilizing this blank space, it can be used to record visual examination results, childcare logs, and class logs. Within the limited space of the childcare facility management support sheet 2, functions such as attendance registers, visual examination forms, childcare logs, and class logs are efficiently integrated, resulting in a compact and practical configuration.

[0069] The meal information entry section 22 is where meal information is entered. This section includes the quantity of lunch, the quantity of snacks, eating habits, and information about children with allergies. Since it is entered on the same sheet as the daily life record / childcare record section 24, which functions as an attendance register, meal information can be accurately and easily determined and entered. As shown in the example of the childcare facility operation support sheet 2, placing the meal information entry section 22 near the daily life record / childcare record section 24 makes it even easier to track quantities. Section 25 for recording actual expenses contains advance information about actual expenses such as extension fees, diaper fees, and underwear fees. When actual expenses are incurred, details of the actual expense collection are recorded in this section.

[0070] The Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 2 can also be used as a record (childcare register) regarding the enrollment / graduation (withdrawal) of children entrusted to the childcare facility. The fields for the facility name, address, and telephone number on the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 2 may be filled in in advance. The fields for the homeroom teacher's name and the director's name may also be filled in in advance, as shown in Figure 5, or they may be signed when the other fields on the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 2 are completed.

[0071] Figure 9 is an explanatory diagram of the key parts when using the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 2 as a childcare register. This figure shows the lower part of the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 2 and a portion of the Life Record / Childcare Register Record Section 24. Information for each child is entered in correspondence with the names of the children that are pre-entered in the Life Record / Childcare Register Record Section 24. An example of information to be entered is written in the Information to be Entered Section 27. Staff members fill in the information to be entered in each section based on the Information to be Entered Section 27. The Information to be Entered Section 27 is pre-entered parallel to the Timetable 23.

[0072] According to the instruction field 27 in Figure 9, the instructions are to fill in the following information: the child's enrollment period (from enrollment to graduation / withdrawal), the parent's name, current address, and the elementary school the child will attend. The size (width) of the fields required for each piece of information can be adjusted by the number of time slots (frames) divided in the timetable. For areas with a large number of characters to fill in, such as the current address, more frames can be used.

[0073] In the example in Figure 9, the child's name is associated with the date of enrollment, the child's class, and their rank within the class at the time of enrollment. In column 29b, the date of completion of the childcare period, the child's class at graduation (withdrawal), and their rank within the class at graduation (withdrawal) are entered. In column 29c, the childcare period (in years and months) is entered. In column 29d, the parent's name is entered. In column 29e, the current address is entered. In column 29f, information about the elementary school the child will attend is entered. Any other special notes about the child are entered in column 29g. Finally, in column 29h, the year the childcare period for that class ends is entered.

[0074] In this embodiment, the childcare facility operation support sheet 2 is described as an example of the information entry fields of the present invention, and mainly contains information related to childcare activities, facility operation, or facility management, and includes a date entry field 20, a work record field 21 (photography information entry field 211, environmental safety inspection status entry field 212, administrative work status entry field 213), a meal information entry field 22, a life record / childcare record field 24, an actual expense collection entry field 25, and fields 29a to 29h.

[0075] <Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 3> Figure 10 is an overall plan view of the childcare facility operation support sheet 3A according to this embodiment, Figure 11 is an overall plan view of the childcare facility operation support sheet 3B according to this embodiment, Figure 12 is an overall plan view of the childcare facility operation support sheet 3C according to this embodiment, Figure 13 is an overall plan view of the childcare facility operation support sheet 3D according to this embodiment, Figures 14 to 20 are overall plan views of the childcare facility operation support sheet 3E according to this embodiment, and Figure 21 is an overall plan view of the childcare facility operation support sheet 3F.

[0076] The childcare facility operation support sheets 3A to 3F according to the embodiment of the present invention are examples of a third childcare facility operation support sheet included in the collection of childcare facility operation support sheets, and the information entry fields, which mainly contain information related to childcare activities, are configured to include at least the following: a child and household information entry field 33 for entering information about the child and the household of the child to be admitted, a health and medical information entry field 34 for entering information about the child's health and medical care, and a consent form attachment field 35 for attaching a consent form from the guardian indicating that they have received an explanation of important matters concerning the childcare facility to be admitted.

[0077] The Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 3 consists of a set of Childcare Facility Management Support Sheets 3A through 3F, and is a sheet that allows for the centralized management of child records and health and development records, essentially functioning as an individual child's medical record. It mainly consists of Childcare Facility Management Support Sheets 3A and 3B, which function as child records, Childcare Facility Management Support Sheets 3C through 3E, which function as health and development record books, and Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 3F, where the child's name and other information are recorded when visitors come to the childcare facility before enrollment. In the following explanation, Childcare Facility Management Support Sheets 3A through 3F will be collectively referred to as Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 3.

[0078] The retention year designation column 31 on Childcare Facility Management Support Sheets 3A to 3F contains multiple numbers representing years and is used to specify the retention year until which the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheets 3A to 3F will be kept. The method of use for the retention year designation column 31 is the same as that of the retention year designation column 12 on Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 1, so an explanation is omitted. It is filled out by the director of the childcare facility, etc., upon enrollment. A child information entry column 37 is provided in the upper right corner of Childcare Facility Management Support Sheets 3A to 3F, where the child's name, date of birth, and enrollment class are entered. The planned enrollment class is entered on Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 3F. The childcare facility operation support sheet 3A, section 32 for entering information on children eligible for admission, is used to record the name of the admission class, childcare hours (arrival time, departure time), holiday information, whether or not an allergy instruction form has been received, and the date of the admission interview. For example, this information is filled out by the director of the childcare facility during the admission interview.

[0079] Section 33 for entering information about the child and the household is where the child's information and the household's information are entered. Specifically, the child's name, date of birth, address and telephone number, means of transportation to the nursery and travel time, family doctor, emergency contact information, information about the guardian (guardian's name, date of birth, mobile phone number, employment information (job title, name of employer, address and telephone number of employer, means of transportation from the employer to the nursery and travel time, including whether an employment certificate has been received)), information about the relationship between the guardian and child, information about pick-up and drop-off (regular pick-up and drop-off, emergency pick-up and drop-off), and information about siblings are to be entered by the guardian.

[0080] The health and medical information section 34 of the childcare facility operation support sheet 3B is where information regarding the health and medical care of the children enrolling in the facility is recorded. In the example shown in the diagram, information on normal body temperature, dislocation / febrile seizures, food allergies, information during pregnancy, childbirth, and attendance, and vaccination and medical history are recorded by the parents. Section 35 for attaching consent forms is where a consent form from the parent / guardian, indicating that they have received an explanation of important matters regarding the childcare facility they will be enrolling in, is attached. Specifically, it is a section for attaching a consent form that has been included in the important matters explanation document provided by the childcare facility to the parent / guardian and has been signed by the parent / guardian. The consent form cut out from the aforementioned rulebook 5A is attached.

[0081] In the physical measurement entry section 36A of the childcare facility operation support sheets 3C and 3D, the results of monthly physical measurements conducted from enrollment to graduation (withdrawal) and information on internal medicine and dental examinations conducted a predetermined number of times per year are recorded. In the physical measurement entry section 36B of the childcare facility operation support sheet 3D, the measurement results are plotted on a growth curve graph based on the physical measurement results.

[0082] In the health and development status entry section 39 of the childcare facility operation support sheet 3E, a confirmation stamp is placed next to the achieved items. The childcare facility operation support sheet 3E is, so to speak, a "developmental check map," a check map that allows for a visual understanding of the developmental status of the children. Developmental achievement items are listed on the vertical axis, and age (months) is listed on the horizontal axis. Lines are drawn vertically and horizontally to form a grid, and a confirmation stamp (for example, a circle or check) is placed next to the age at which the child achieved that item.

[0083] In the example of the childcare facility management support sheet 3E, the period considered to be typical for each item is highlighted, making it easy to see at a glance whether a child is ahead or behind that period. Furthermore, in the example in Figure 14, the sheet is designed to allow users to check the physical, mental, and environmental condition of the mother during pregnancy. The Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 3F is a record of visits to the childcare facility before enrollment. When visiting, please fill in the retention year section 31 and the child information section 37.

[0084] In this embodiment, the childcare facility operation support sheet 3 is described as an example of the information entry fields of the present invention, and mainly contains information related to childcare activities, including a retention year designation field 31, a field for entering information on children eligible for admission 32, a field for entering information on children eligible for admission and enrolled households 33, a health and medical information entry field 34, a consent form attachment field 35, physical measurement entry fields 36A and 36B, a child information entry field 37, and a health and development status entry field 39.

[0085] <Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 4> Childcare Facility Management Support Sheets 4A through 4F function as various formats for notices from childcare facilities to parents and children. In the following explanation, Childcare Facility Management Support Sheets 4A through 4F will be collectively referred to as Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 4. Figure 22 is an overall plan view of the childcare facility operation support sheet 4A according to this embodiment. The Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 4A is used to record information such as the schedule for disaster prevention and crisis management drills, personnel information, illness information, physical measurement schedules, training schedules, and event schedules. It is posted in a designated area within the facility as a newsletter from the childcare facility to parents. The notification date entry field 41a of the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 4A is for the date the notification was issued, and the notification month entry field 42a is for the month to which the notification applies. The notification content entry field 43a is for high-priority information such as the schedule for various drills, physical measurement schedules, and information regarding the collection of actual expenses. The notification content entry field 44a is for other announcements. Figure 23 shows an example of how to fill out the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 4A.

[0086] Figure 24 is an overall plan view of the childcare facility operation support sheet 4B according to this embodiment. The childcare facility operation support sheet 4B according to an embodiment of the present invention is an example of a fourth childcare facility operation support sheet included in a collection of childcare facility operation support sheets, and the information entry section, which mainly contains information related to childcare activities, is provided with at least a notification content entry section 42b for which notification documents related to the collection of items are entered, and the fourth childcare facility operation support sheet is provided with a folding line for folding, and it is an essential configuration that the sheet can be folded and adhered along the folding line to form a bag-like body.

[0087] The childcare facility operation support sheet 4B functions, for example, as a notice and collection bag to inform parents about the collection of items. The notification date entry field 41b of the childcare facility operation support sheet 4B is for the date the notice was issued, and the notification content entry field 42b is for the notification document related to the collection of items. The free entry field 43b is for writing, for example, a message from the parents to the child. After filling in the free entry field 43b, it can be cut out from the sheet and used as is.

[0088] The child information entry section 44b is for parents to enter the child's name. The class entry section 45b has multiple numbers indicating the child's class, and is designed so that parents can mark the appropriate class with a confirmation mark (e.g., a circle or check). The confirmation items entry section 46b is for entering confirmation items related to the collection of items, and has sections for parent confirmation and school confirmation. The consent items entry section 47b is for entering consent items related to the collection of items, and has a section for parents to enter a confirmation mark (a check mark in the diagram).

[0089] Section 48b for notes and other important information is for writing down. Parents should fill in the necessary information in each section, sign with their confirmation stamp, then fold and glue the childcare facility operation support sheet 4B along the fold line to form a bag, place the collected items in the bag, and submit it to the nursery. In Figure 24, the fold lines are shown as dashed lines. The childcare facility operation support sheet 4B can be folded along the fold lines, and the overlapping edges of the sheets that are perpendicular to the fold lines (left and right in Figure 24) can be glued together to form a bag-like structure.

[0090] Figure 25A shows an example of how to fill out the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 4B when notifying parents from the nursery, and Figure 25B is a schematic diagram of how the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 4B can be made into a bag. The same diagram shows an example of how to fill it out when collecting baby photos of children from parents for the creation of a graduation yearbook. In this way, when collecting photo materials from parents for the creation of a graduation yearbook, using the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 4B, which has notes and permission items for use filled in, in a bag form eliminates the need to prepare separate forms or bags with names, necessary information, and consent items, making it efficient and convenient. In this embodiment, the childcare facility operation support sheet 4B was described as an example of the information entry fields of the present invention, and included a notification date entry field 41b, a notification content entry field 42b, a free entry field 43b, a child information entry field 44b, a class entry field 45b, a confirmation item entry field 46b, an acknowledged item entry field 47b, and a contact item entry field 48b.

[0091] Figure 26 is an overall plan view of the childcare facility operation support sheet 4C according to this embodiment, and Figure 27 is an overall plan view of the childcare facility operation support sheet 4D according to this embodiment. The childcare facility operation support sheets 4C and 4D according to the embodiment of the present invention are examples of a fourth childcare facility operation support sheet included in the collection of childcare facility operation support sheets, and are configured such that the upper information entry field and the lower information entry field are inverted, with the center line of the horizontal half as the dividing line.

[0092] The childcare facility operation support sheet 4C functions, for example, as a notice to inform parents about events such as presentations and ceremonies held at the facility and to invite them. An example of information entry fields located at the top includes fields for the notification date 41c, notification content 42c, title 43c, and invitation information 44c, while information entry fields located at the bottom include fields for the event name 45c and event schedule 46c. In the notification date entry field 41c of the childcare facility operation support sheet 4C, the date the notification was issued is entered, and in the notification content entry field 42c, the notification document, such as a greeting or explanation related to the content of the notification, is entered. In the title entry field 43c, the name or title of the presentation, ceremony, etc. to be held is entered. In the invitation information field 44c, specific contact information such as the date and time of the event, location, what to bring, dress code, and precautions is entered. In the progress name entry field 45c, the name of the progress schedule (program, agenda) to match the presentation, ceremony, etc. to be held is entered, and in the progress schedule entry field 46c, the specific progress schedule is entered.

[0093] The Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 4C and Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 4D are designed so that the information entry fields located above and below the horizontal half-center line are inverted. Figure 28 shows an example of how to fill out the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 4C. The Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 4C can be folded into a compact size by folding it along the horizontal dashed line (the center line halfway horizontally) as shown in Figure 26, and then folding it along the vertical dashed line (double fold). This makes it easy for parents to store in their pockets, and once opened, they can check the progress chart on a two-page spread, making it highly convenient.

[0094] The Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 4D is a sheet that functions, for example, as a congratulatory card distributed on a child's birthday. An example is provided where the upper part of the sheet contains fields 41d and 42d for the congratulatory message, and the lower part contains fields 43d and 44d for the congratulatory message. Sections 41d, 42d, 43d, and 44d are for parents or guardians to write congratulatory messages to their children. For example, section 41d is for writing the child's birthday, age, etc. Sections 41d, 42d, 43d, and 44d are for drawing illustrations, attaching photos, or pictures. They are designed to be used freely.

[0095] The Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 4D is designed so that the upper and lower information entry fields are inverted, with the center line marking the halfway point horizontally. This allows it to be folded compactly by first folding along the horizontal dashed line (the center line marking the halfway point horizontally) and then again along the vertical dashed line (double fold). Once opened, the sections for writing congratulatory messages (41d, 42d, 43d, and 44d) are designed to open to two pages.

[0096] For example, before a child's birthday, a childcare facility operation support sheet 4B is distributed to the child's guardians as a notification that a birthday party will be held, and the guardians write congratulatory messages to the child in the free-form writing section 43b of the childcare facility operation support sheet 4B. If necessary, the guardians may provide photos or other information in the form of a bag containing the childcare facility operation support sheet 4B. The free-form writing section 43b of the childcare facility operation support sheet 4B with the congratulatory message can then be cut out and attached to 43d of the childcare facility operation support sheet 4D, etc.

[0097] Alternatively, both the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 4D and the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 4B may be distributed to parents. Parents can use the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 4D by writing a congratulatory message in one of the congratulatory message fields 41d, 42d, 43d, or 44d, folding it twice, and then enclosing the folded Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 4D in the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 4B, which forms a pouch, before submitting it to the childcare facility.

[0098] In this embodiment, the childcare facility operation support sheet 4 is described as an example of the information entry fields of the present invention, and includes fields 41a and 41b for notification year and month, fields 42a and 41c for the month of the notification, fields 43a, 44a, 42b, and 42c for notification content, a free entry field 43b, a class entry field 45b, a child information entry field 44b, a confirmation item entry field 46b, an acknowledged item entry field 47b, a contact item entry field 48b, a title entry field 43c, an invitation information field 44c, a progress name entry field 45c, a progress schedule entry field 46c, a field 41d, and congratulatory item entry fields 42d, 43d, and 44d.

[0099] <Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 5> Figure 29 is an overall plan view of the childcare facility operation support sheet 5 according to this embodiment. The childcare facility operation support sheet 5 according to an embodiment of the present invention is an example of a fifth childcare facility operation support sheet included in a collection of childcare facility operation support sheets, and the information entry fields, which mainly contain information related to childcare activities, are configured to include at least the following: an entry content specification field 51 that specifies whether the entry pertains to a long-term plan, a short-term plan, or an individual plan related to childcare activities; a class information or child information entry field 53 in which information pertains to either class information that is the subject of a long-term plan or a short-term plan, or child information that is the subject of an individual plan; a plan content entry field 55 in which the plan content is entered for each predetermined period; and a retention year specification field 52 in which multiple numbers representing years are listed, specifying until what year the childcare facility operation support sheet 5 should be kept.

[0100] In the designated section 51 of the childcare facility operation support sheet 5, users can easily understand which type of plan the sheet 5 is about by simply marking the relevant item with a confirmation mark (e.g., a circle or check) to indicate whether it pertains to a long-term plan, a short-term plan, or an individual plan. The retention year designation column 52 of the childcare facility operation support sheet 5 contains multiple numbers representing years, and is used to specify the retention year until which the childcare facility operation support sheet 5 should be kept. The method of use is the same as the retention year designation column 12 of the childcare facility operation support sheet 1, so a detailed explanation is omitted.

[0101] The period specification field 54 is a field for specifying and entering the planning period (specified period), which is the unit for creating a plan. The example in Figure 29 is configured so that the "objectives" for the planning period can be entered in conjunction with them. In the plan details entry section 55, specific plan details are entered for each period specified in the period designation section 54. As shown in the diagram, target items such as care (preservation of life, emotional stability), education (health, interpersonal relationships, language, etc.), foundation for the ability to manage food, and support for child-rearing / comprehensive perspective are pre-listed, and the form is structured so that specific plan details can be entered for each item.

[0102] The childcare facility operation support sheet 5 is formulated based on the overall plan (Figure 2B) in Rulebook 5A. A long-term plan is a plan for more specific childcare activities for each class and for a set period, based on the overall plan (Figure 2B). It serves as a guideline to support daily childcare activities that are appropriate to the developmental stage of the children and the season, and is a practical plan for the field that is directly linked to implementation. For example, in the period specification column 54, a quarter (3 months) can be used as an example of a set period for planning.

[0103] Figure 30 shows an example of how to fill out the childcare facility operation support sheet 5. This figure is an example of how to fill out a long-term plan for the 3-year-old "Sakura class," and as shown in the period specification column 54, the plan contents for the first period "April, May, June" and the second period "July, August, September" are entered in the respective plan contents entry columns 55. As an example of the plan contents to be entered in the plan contents entry field 55, for example, corresponding to the target item "Education (Communicating with those close to you) (Human Relations)" in the plan contents entry field 55 which corresponds to the first period in the period specification field 54, it would be written as "Empathize with children's interest in other children's play, and the caregiver will also join in the play and empathize with them." Also, for example, corresponding to the target item "Foundation of the ability to manage food" in the plan contents entry field 55 which corresponds to the second period in the period specification field 54, it would be written as "Provide opportunities to harvest ingredients that have been grown or to touch ingredients used in meals."

[0104] Short-term plans are based on long-term plans and outline specific childcare activities for each class over a set period. They are created by taking into account the children's development and interests, seasonal events, and a review of the previous period's childcare activities, and detailing the content of daily childcare activities, points to note, and safety and health management points. For example, in the period specification column 54, a plan is created using a one-week unit as the unit. Such short-term plans (in this case, weekly plans) facilitate sharing and collaboration among staff and play a more practical role in specifically planning how to interact with the children and what kind of childcare content to provide.

[0105] An individualized plan is a plan created for each child based on a long-term plan, taking into account each child's developmental stage, daily rhythm, interests, health condition, etc. The relevant child's information is entered in the class information or child information entry section 53, and the plan is created by specifically recording goals, activities, and considerations in order to implement detailed childcare that is tailored to each child's developmental characteristics and living situation. For example, for children aged 0, 1, and 2, an individualized plan can be created for each child in a specified period of one week in the period specification section 54, allowing for careful implementation of daily childcare.

[0106] The main plan contents to be entered in section 55 for short-term and individual plans include, for example, weekly goals (skills to be fostered and direction of development), main activities for each day of the week (crafts, exercise, outdoor play, etc.), lunch and snack menus (if necessary), considerations for health and safety, special events (birthday parties, evacuation drills, etc.), and support for children who require individual attention.

[0107] For example, if the childcare facility operation support sheet 5 is a long-term or short-term plan that can be planned for each class, the class information or child information entry section 53 will be filled in with the information of the target class. If the childcare facility operation support sheet 5 is an individual plan that can be planned for each child, the child information will be filled in with the information of the target child. For example, the child's date of birth and name will be entered, and the child's age will be confirmed with a mark (e.g., a circle or check).

[0108] Furthermore, Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 5 can also be used as a health plan. A health plan is a systematic compilation of plans for maintaining and improving the health of children, including health checkups, infectious disease prevention, hygiene management, nutrition education, and safety measures. It serves as a guideline for ensuring proper hygiene management and preventive measures during childcare and is filled out at prescribed intervals. Figure 31 shows an example of a created health plan. As shown in Figure 31, the class information or child information entry field 53 may be marked as a health plan, or the entry content specification field 51 may be configured to allow the selection of a health plan by writing "health plan" after "long-term plan," "short-term plan," or "individual plan." The figure shows an example where a quarter (3 months) is the prescribed period, and in this example, as shown in the period specification field 54, the health plans for the third period "October, November, December" and the fourth period "January, February, March" are entered in the respective plan content entry fields 55.

[0109] An example of a childcare facility operation support sheet 5 according to an embodiment of the present invention has been described, which includes a field for specifying the content to be entered 51, a field for specifying the retention year 52, a field for entering class information or child information 53, a field for specifying the period 54, and a field for entering the plan content 55. <Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 6> Figure 32 is an overall plan view of the childcare facility operation support sheet 6 according to this embodiment. The childcare facility operation support sheet 6 according to an embodiment of the present invention is an example of the sixth childcare facility operation support sheet included in the collection of childcare facility operation support sheets, and the information entry field, which mainly contains information related to facility operation, is a self-evaluation entry field 65 for staff to enter self-evaluations in which they reflect on their own work, and it is essential that at least the following are provided: a first self-evaluation entry field 65 in which evaluation results are entered for each childcare facility operation support sheet 1 to 9 based on one or more evaluation items predetermined in accordance with the role and purpose of each childcare facility operation support sheet 1 to 9 included in the collection of childcare facility operation support sheets, and a second self-evaluation entry field 66 in which evaluation results are entered for each childcare facility operation support sheet 1 to 9 based on one or more common evaluation items common to all childcare facility operation support sheets 1 to 9 included in the collection of childcare facility operation support sheets.

[0110] The Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 6 is a sheet for integrating self-evaluation by staff members reflecting on their own work, evaluations of the facility (organization) by staff members, and performance evaluations by supervisors. In the evaluation year entry field 61 of the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 6, the evaluation year is entered, and in the staff information entry field 62, the name of the staff member's assigned class and the staff member's name are entered. The date entry field 63 is for the evaluation date, and the date entry field 64 is for the performance evaluation date. By filling out the sheet multiple times during the year, continuous reflection becomes possible, supporting the growth of staff members and the organization as a whole. Self-assessment fields 65 and 66 are used to visually record the results of the self-assessment using symbols such as circles, triangles, and crosses.

[0111] In the self-evaluation section 65, the evaluation results are entered based on one or more predetermined evaluation items in accordance with the role and purpose of each childcare facility operation support sheet 1 to 9 included in the collection of childcare facility operation support sheets. In the example shown in the figure, childcare facility operation support sheet 1 has two evaluation items, evaluation item A and evaluation item B. For example, in the section 65A for evaluation item A, it is written, "Even minor injuries are recorded, explained to the parents, and after obtaining their signature, the area is enclosed and verification is recorded." In the section 65B for evaluation item B, it is written, "We understand that by recording accident reports and near misses, we can reflect on and share childcare practices, thereby preventing major accidents and injuries."

[0112] The self-evaluation section 66 is where evaluation results are entered based on one or more common evaluation items common to all childcare facility operation support sheets 1 through 9 included in the collection of childcare facility operation support sheets. The common evaluation items are established to confirm that the purpose and role of each sheet are properly understood and that the method of filling them out is accurate and appropriate. For example, they include proper document storage methods, adherence to filling rules, reflection of improvements to operations, and accurate entries that can respond to disclosure requests. For example, in section 66A of common evaluation item A, it is written, "Completed pages are bound with hemp string, and pages in use are bound with paper fasteners." In section 66B of common evaluation item B, it is written, "Duties are performed based on documents, and the records are completed in accordance with the filling rules (sample)."

[0113] Organizational evaluation section 67 is where staff members record their evaluation of the operation of the childcare facility to which they belong. The organizational evaluation involves recording the results of an assessment to determine whether or not there are issues for each of the one or more predetermined issues. These evaluation results are visually indicated using symbols such as circles, triangles, or crosses. In the example shown in the diagram, four task items are defined, from evaluation item A to task item D. For example, in column 67A of task item A, it is written, "Efforts are being made regarding the maintenance and management of the facility." In column 67B of task item B, it is written, "The chain of command is being maintained and rules for performing duties are being followed."

[0114] The numbers "1," "2," and "3" listed in conjunction with the evaluation items, common evaluation items, and problem items correspond to the respective evaluation dates. For example, if the first evaluation was conducted on May 1st, "5 / 1" would be entered in the "First Evaluation Date" field 63, and the evaluation result symbol would be entered next to the number in the "1" section to the left of the evaluation item, common evaluation item, and problem item (the area enclosed by the dashed line in the diagram).

[0115] In the example shown in the diagram, a single childcare facility management support sheet 6 was used for simplicity of explanation. However, in reality, the childcare facility management support sheet 6 consists of sets of multiple sheets 6, as it includes evaluations of all sheets and an evaluation of the organization as a whole. Figures 33 to 37 show examples of childcare facility management support sheets 6 (6A to 6E) composed of sets of multiple sheets. Thus, the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 6 is an important tool aimed at promoting staff growth and improving the quality of childcare facility management by comprehensively evaluating job performance abilities, job performance attitudes, and problem recognition and improvement abilities based on the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheets 1 through 9 included in the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet Collection.

[0116] In this embodiment, the childcare facility operation support sheet 6 was described as an example of the information entry fields of the present invention, and included an evaluation year entry field 61, a staff information entry field 62, date entry fields 63 and 64, self-evaluation entry fields 65 and 66, and an organizational evaluation entry field 67.

[0117] <Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 7> Figure 38 is an overall plan view of the childcare facility operation support sheet 7A according to this embodiment, and Figure 39 is an overall plan view of the childcare facility operation support sheet 7B according to this embodiment. In the following description, childcare facility operation support sheets 7A and 7B will be collectively referred to as childcare facility operation support sheet 7.

[0118] The childcare facility operation support sheet 7A according to an embodiment of the present invention is an example of the seventh childcare facility operation support sheet included in the collection of childcare facility operation support sheets, and the information entry fields, which are mainly used to record information related to childcare activities or facility operation, are provided in correspondence with the following: a date entry field 73A for recording the date of the daily log, an attendance record field 74A for recording the attendance status of children for each class, a contact entry field 74B for recording contact information from parents regarding the attendance and coming / going to and from the facility, and a work shift change information entry field 74C for recording changes in staff work shifts if there are any changes. Furthermore, it is essential that a contact entry field 75 for recording contact information received from vendors, government offices, or neighbors to the childcare facility.

[0119] The childcare facility operation support sheet 7B according to an embodiment of the present invention is an example of the seventh childcare facility operation support sheet included in the collection of childcare facility operation support sheets, and the information entry field, which mainly contains information related to childcare activities, facility operation, or facility management, is a work inspection entry field 76 in which the results of inspections of the work status of the childcare facility are entered, and it is essential that each childcare facility operation support sheet included in the collection of childcare facility operation support sheets has at least the work inspection entry field 76 in which the inspection results are entered based on one or more predetermined inspection items, a food inspection status entry field 78 in which the status of food inspections of meals provided to children is entered, and a purchase request status entry field 79 in which the status of purchase requests for various items is entered.

[0120] The childcare facility operation support sheet 7 in this embodiment consists of a set of childcare facility operation support sheets 7A and 7B, and functions as a daily log record of all operations for a day's childcare activities, including attendance of children, communications from the children's families, communications from vendors, government offices, and neighbors, operational checks, food inspection status, and requests for purchase of various items. It is useful for information sharing among staff, handing over tasks, and confirmation at a later date, as well as serving as material for understanding the operational status and challenges of the nursery. Accuracy and objectivity of the records are required, and it also contributes to maintaining the quality of childcare and safety management. It mainly consists of childcare facility operation support sheet 7A, which functions as a facility log, and childcare facility operation support sheet 7B, which functions as a purchase request form. The following explanation uses the example of when Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 7A and Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 7B are configured as a single double-page spread.

[0121] The retention year designation column 71 of the childcare facility operation support sheet 7A contains multiple numbers representing years, and is used to specify the retention year until which the childcare facility operation support sheet 7A should be kept. It is filled in by the staff member writing the daily log. The method of use is the same as the retention year designation column 12 of the childcare facility operation support sheet 1, so the explanation is omitted. The log entry field 72 is for the name of the employee writing the log, and the date entry field 73A is for the day of the week corresponding to the date of the log entry, and for the date of the log entry, temperature, humidity, weather, etc.

[0122] The attendance record section 74A is where the attendance status of the children is recorded. Section 74B, for recording information about enrolled households, is where parents can record any information they have regarding their child's attendance and arrival / departure from the nursery. For example, if an absence is reported, the source of the report, the time of the report, the content of the report, and the information conveyed by the nursery facility are recorded. Section 74C, for recording changes to staff work shifts, is where changes are recorded. If there are any changes to the work shifts defined in the Nursery Facility Management Support Sheet 9 (described later), the details of those changes are recorded here.

[0123] The example in the diagram shows a layout with separate sections for attendance (74A), household contact information (74B), and work shift change information (74C) for each class. Furthermore, the diagram includes a separate section for temporary childcare, making it usable for temporary childcare as well. Section 75, for recording communications from businesses, government offices, or neighbors, is for recording communications received by the childcare facility from businesses, government offices, or neighbors. For example, if a neighbor contacts the facility, a note is made indicating the neighbor, and the source of the contact, time of contact, content, and response are recorded. Recording communications from businesses, government offices, and neighbors makes it easier to track communication history and share information, which helps in prompt responses and preventing problems later on.

[0124] The date entry field 73B on the childcare facility operation support sheet 7B is where the log date is entered. Section 76 of the operational inspection form is where the results of the inspection of the operational status of the childcare facility are recorded. The inspection is based on whether each of the childcare facility operation support sheets 1 through 9, which are included in the collection of childcare facility operation support sheets for childcare facility operation support, are being used appropriately. Since these childcare facility operation support sheets 1 through 9 are created with the purpose of supporting the smooth operation of childcare facilities, if the sheets are being used appropriately, it can be judged that the operations of the childcare facility are being carried out properly. The inspection results are recorded based on one or more predetermined inspection items for each childcare facility operation support sheet 1 through 9.

[0125] The example in the diagram is designed to allow entries for each class. Supplementary information regarding the inspection items is pre-filled in column 77A. In this example, supplementary information regarding the inspection items for Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 2 (circled 1 in the diagram), supplementary information regarding the inspection items for Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 5 (circled 2 in the diagram), and supplementary information regarding the inspection items for Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 7 (circled 3 in the diagram) are pre-filled in column 77A for easy review.

[0126] The event entry section 77B is where information about various drills (such as evacuation drills and suspicious person response drills), briefings, meetings, and training sessions to be held on the day is recorded. For example, if an evacuation drill is to be held, the scheduled time and content, the situation after the drill, any problems that occurred, and any observations are recorded in detail. This makes it easier to verify the effectiveness of the drill and identify areas for improvement for the next time, enabling safer and smoother responses. Section 78 for recording the food inspection status is for recording the inspection status of meals provided to the children. It is designed so that you can mark the appropriate evaluation with a confirmation mark (e.g., a circle or check).

[0127] Section 79, which records the purchase status of various items such as office supplies, childcare supplies, and health and hygiene supplies, is used to record the purchase status of these items. In the example shown in the diagram, each item has sections for recording the reason for the request (consumed, damaged, lost), the delivery date, and a signature to confirm delivery. In this embodiment, the childcare facility operation support sheet 7 was described as an example that includes a field for specifying the retention year 71, a field for entering the information of the person who wrote the log 72, a field for entering the date 73A and 73B, a field for entering the attendance status 74A, a field for entering contact information of enrolled households 74B, a field for entering information on changes in work shifts 74C, a field for entering contact information of vendors, government offices, or neighbors 75, a field for entering business inspections 76, a field for entering events 77B, a field for entering food inspection status 78, and a field for entering purchase request status 79.

[0128] <Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 8> Figure 40 is an overall plan view of the childcare facility operation support sheet 8 according to this embodiment. Figure 41 is an example of how to fill out the childcare facility operation support sheet 8. The childcare facility operation support sheet 8 according to an embodiment of the present invention is an example of the eighth childcare facility operation support sheet included in the collection of childcare facility operation support sheets, and its information entry fields, which mainly contain information related to childcare activities or facility operation, are configured to include at least the following: a target period specification field 81 for specifying the target period for health status confirmation; a personal name entry field 82 for entering the name of the staff member subject to health status confirmation, associated with identification information that uniquely identifies the name; a cohabitant name entry field 83 for entering the name of a cohabitant of the staff member, associated with identification information that uniquely identifies the name; and a health status entry field 87 for entering identification information that uniquely identifies the name of the person who developed symptoms, associated with the name of the symptom that occurred, for each day of the target period specified in the target period specification field 81.

[0129] The Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 8 is a self-reporting form for staff members to record their own daily health condition and the health condition of those they interact with on a daily basis (family members, etc.). Specifically, it includes recording body temperature and the presence or absence of symptoms such as cough, sore throat, and fatigue. This serves to prevent infectious diseases and facilitate the early detection and response to various illnesses. Especially during seasons when infectious diseases are prevalent, managing the health of staff members themselves and those they interact with on a daily basis (family members, etc.) is crucial, and this sheet is an indispensable record for ensuring the safety of childcare.

[0130] Furthermore, the childcare facility operation support sheet 8 is also configured to allow the recording of the names of visitors to the staff's residences. Furthermore, the system is designed to allow staff to record confirmations of health checks they should perform during work hours (e.g., handwashing, gargling, temperature measurement, etc.).

[0131] In the Target Period Specification field 81, the target period (term) for health status confirmation is specified and entered. Multiple dates are pre-filled in chronological order in the Target Period Specification field 81. In the example shown in the figure, four consecutive weeks of dates × four terms are listed on one childcare facility operation support sheet 8. Therefore, one year's worth of records can be kept using four childcare facility operation support sheets 8. As shown in the example in Figure 40, the target period is specified by marking it with a confirmation mark (e.g., a circle or check). In the example shown in the figure, a check is made in the row for October 11th, and this childcare facility operation support sheet 8 will contain records for the four weeks starting from October 11th.

[0132] The staff name column 89 of the childcare facility operation support sheet 8 contains a list of the names of the staff members currently employed. When filling out the sheet, staff members circle their own names, making it immediately clear whose childcare facility operation support sheet 8 it is when it is referenced. Since filling out and submitting the sheet is essential for the continued operation of the facility, the sheet is designed to make it immediately obvious who has not submitted it.

[0133] The section for recording the names of individuals subject to health status confirmation consists of three fields: a field 82 for recording the name of the employee being monitored, a field 83 for recording the names of family members or other cohabitants of the employee, and a field 84 for recording the names of visitors to the employee's residence. Each field contains identification information that uniquely links each individual (name) along with their name. Figures 40 and 41 show examples where circled numbers 1, 2, 3, ..., 10, 21, 22, 23 are used as identification information to uniquely link names.

[0134] In the implementation confirmation section 85, confirmation of the health checks that should be performed during work is recorded with a confirmation stamp (e.g., a circle or check). In the examples in Figures 40 and 41, it is structured to confirm "whether or not handwashing and gargling were performed 8 or more times during childcare," and if this was done, a confirmation stamp (circle or check) is recorded in the section. The temperature entry field 86 is where the employee's temperature upon waking is recorded.

[0135] In the health status entry field 87, indicated by the dashed line in the diagram, the occurrence status of multiple symptoms is recorded for each day within the target period specified in the target period specification field 81. Specifically, by entering identification information that uniquely identifies the name of the person who experienced the symptoms, corresponding to the name of the symptom that occurred, it is recorded which symptoms occurred in which person. In the example in Figure 41, the circled number 4 is entered as identification information in the columns for sneezing and runny nose on October 11th. This indicates that on October 11th, "Ayama Chei," a cohabitant of "Ayama Bmi," the employee who submitted the childcare facility operation support sheet 8, experienced symptoms of sneezing and a runny nose. This is an important record because it records the presence or absence and changes in symptoms on a daily basis.

[0136] In Figure 40, the visitor information field 88, enclosed by a dashed line, is used to uniquely identify the visitor's name for each day within the period specified in the period designation field 81, whenever a visitor visits an employee's residence. In the example in Figure 41, the circled number 21 is entered as identification information in the column for October 11th. This indicates that on October 11th, "△Kawa〇ji" visited the residence of employee "Ayama Bmi".

[0137] In this embodiment, the childcare facility operation support sheet 8 was described as an example of the information entry fields of the present invention, and included a field for specifying the target period 81, a field for entering the person's name 82, a field for entering the names of cohabitants 83, a field for entering the names of visitors 84, a field for confirming implementation 85, a field for entering body temperature 86, a field for entering health status 87, and a field for entering visitors 88.

[0138] <Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 9> Childcare facility operation support sheets 9A through 9C function as various formats related to the management of work shifts, overtime work, and annual paid leave for employees working at childcare facilities. In the following explanation, childcare facility operation support sheets 9A through 9C will be collectively referred to as childcare facility operation support sheet 9. Figure 42 is an overall plan view of the childcare facility operation support sheet 9A according to this embodiment. The childcare facility operation support sheet 9A is used to record staff attendance shifts, and by assigning the necessary number of staff with the appropriate skills to each time slot, it is possible to maintain the quality of childcare and enable planned leave and quick responses to sudden absences. It also plays an important role in ensuring thorough labor management and fairness among staff.

[0139] The childcare facility operation support sheet 9A according to an embodiment of the present invention is an example of the ninth childcare facility operation support sheet included in the collection of childcare facility operation support sheets, and is composed of multiple childcare facility operation support sheets 9A for multiple patterns with different staffing levels and working hours, one of the multiple childcare facility operation support sheets 9A included in the multiple childcare facility operation support sheets 9A is a work shift schedule for multiple non-consecutive weeks over a year, and the multiple childcare facility operation support sheets 9A together function as a work shift schedule for a year, and the information entry field, which mainly contains information related to facility operation, is configured to include at least a shift date entry field 91a for which multiple dates included in the multiple weeks that are the target of the work shift entry are entered, an employee name entry field 94a for which the names of multiple employees working at the childcare facility are entered, and a work shift entry field 95a for which work shift information is entered for each day of the week of the day entered in the shift date entry field 91a, corresponding to the name of each employee entered in the employee name entry field 94a.

[0140] The childcare facility operation support sheet 9A consists of multiple childcare facility operation support sheets 9A for each of several patterns with different staffing levels and working hours. In this embodiment, we will describe an example in which eight childcare facility operation support sheets 9A are used for each of eight patterns of work shifts with different staffing levels and working hours over a one-year period.

[0141] Figure 42 shows an example of the childcare facility operation support sheet 9A, where the shift date entry field 91a, along with the year entry field 92a where the year of use is entered, is used to enter multiple dates that fall within multiple weeks for which the work shift is to be recorded. Figures 43 and 44 show examples of how to fill out the childcare facility operation support sheet 9A. To make the contents of the childcare facility operation support sheet 9A easier to understand, Figure 43 shows a magnified view of the upper part of the childcare facility operation support sheet 9A, and Figure 44 shows a magnified view of the lower part of the childcare facility operation support sheet 9A.

[0142] The shift date entry field 91a is used to enter multiple dates that fall within multiple weeks for which the work shift is to be recorded. In the example in Figure 43, multiple dates that fall within multiple non-consecutive weeks for which the work shift is to be to be recorded (April 1st, May 26th, July 21st, September 15th, November 10th, January 5th, March 2nd, and April 27th of the following year) are entered. Note that the week starting April 1st is the beginning of the 2024 fiscal year and therefore consists of 6 days. In the sheet page entry field 93a, the total number of pages in the childcare facility management support sheet 9A is entered as the denominator, and the page number of the childcare facility management support sheet 9A in question is entered as the numerator, so that the page number of the entire sheet can be seen at a glance. Figure 43 (and Figure 44) shows that, as indicated in the sheet page entry field 93a, it is the first page of the childcare facility management support sheet 9A out of a total of 8 pages.

[0143] Figure 45 shows an example of how to fill in the shift date entry field 91a and the sheet page entry field 93a of another childcare facility operation support sheet 9A. Figure 45(A) shows an example of how to fill in the shift date entry field 91a and the sheet page entry field 93a of the second page of the childcare facility operation support sheet 9A, which is out of a total of eight pages. It is a work shift schedule for multiple weeks that are not consecutive, and it lists multiple dates included in those weeks (starting from April 7th, June 2nd, ..., and May 4th of the following year, respectively). Similarly, Figures 45(B) through 45(D) show examples of how to fill in the shift date entry field 91a and the sheet page entry field 93a of the childcare facility operation support sheet 9A on pages 3, 7, and 8 of the total 8 pages.

[0144] In this way, by using a work shift schedule consisting of multiple non-consecutive weeks and preparing in advance several shift patterns with different numbers of staff and working hours throughout the year, it is possible to prevent an uneven distribution of workload to specific employees and to achieve a fair and balanced work system overall. In addition, although the shift date entry field 91a in Figures 43 to 45 includes the date for the following fiscal year, if personnel changes are expected in the following fiscal year and a shift revision is anticipated, the date for the following fiscal year does not need to be entered.

[0145] The employee name entry field 94a is used to enter the names of multiple employees working at the childcare facility. In this embodiment, the names are entered along with their hiring dates. By including the hiring date along with the name, each employee's work history and years of experience can be grasped at a glance. For example, it becomes easier to respond flexibly to revisions or sudden changes in plans, such as the approval of paid leave or the placement of part-time staff, and a balanced shift structure becomes possible. This leads to increased efficiency in the organization's operations and improved working conditions for employees. Note that the employee name entry field 94a in Figure 43, which is an enlarged view of the upper part of Figure 42, is an example where the names of regular employees are mainly entered, while the employee name entry field 94a in Figure 44, which is an enlarged view of the lower part of Figure 42, is an example where the names of part-time employees are entered.

[0146] In the attendance shift entry field 95a, enclosed by a dashed line, attendance shift information is entered for each day of the week for the date entered in the shift date entry field 91a, corresponding to the employee's name entered in the employee name entry field 94a.

[0147] According to the example in the work shift entry section 95a, employee "Ayama Bmi" works from "8:30" to "17:30" from Monday to Friday, and has Saturdays and Sundays off. Furthermore, the work shift entry section 95a may be configured so that special notes 96a for that week are entered in the Sunday column, which is the beginning of the week. For example, if there is a special work shift that differs from other patterns in the pattern shown in the childcare facility operation support sheet 9A, this can be entered as a special note 96a to draw attention not only to the employee in question but also to other employees.

[0148] In the example in Figure 43, it is noted in special note 96a that employee "Kita L.ko" will be working at "7:00" on Fridays this week, "Fumoto G.yo" will be working at "8:00" on Mondays this week, and employee "Ckawa D.ko" will be working at "11:00" on Mondays this week. Furthermore, the days with these special work shifts may be highlighted in pink or light blue for greater visual clarity.

[0149] This type of childcare facility operation support sheet 9A is pre-copied on the first day of the week or the previous week of the day recorded in the shift date entry column 91a, and one sheet is used per week. As shown in the example in Figure 43, the period to be used is specified by marking the week to be used with a confirmation mark (e.g., a circle or check). In the example in the same figure, a check mark 97a is placed in the row for May 26, and this childcare facility operation support sheet 9A will be a record for the week starting from May 6.

[0150] Furthermore, the system may be configured so that when staff members arrive at work, they sign in the attendance shift entry field 95a using the attendance signature 98a. The examples in Figures 43 and 44 show examples of completed childcare facility operation support sheets 9A as of 9:30 a.m. on May 27, and the attendance signatures 98a allow for a quick confirmation that staff members "A-yama," "F-moto," and "E-da" have arrived at work. In this embodiment, the childcare facility operation support sheet 9A was described as an example of the information entry fields of the present invention, and included a shift date entry field 91a, a fiscal year entry field 92a, a sheet page entry field 93a, a staff name entry field 94a, and a work shift entry field 95a.

[0151] Figure 46 is an overall plan view of the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 9B. The Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 9B is used once a month to record information such as staff overtime work, paid leave taken, and absences. The overtime work and leave management year and month entry section 92b is where the year and month (fiscal year and month) of the overtime work and leave management for the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 9B is entered. Figure 47 is an example of how to fill out the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 9B. To make the contents of the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 9B easier to understand, Figure 47 shows a magnified view of the upper part of the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 9B.

[0152] The childcare facility operation support sheet 9B according to an embodiment of the present invention is an example of the tenth childcare facility operation support sheet included in the collection of childcare facility operation support sheets, and the information entry fields, which mainly contain information related to facility operation, include an overtime work and leave management year and month entry field 92b where the year and month subject to overtime work and leave management is entered, an employee name entry field 94b where the names of multiple employees working at the childcare facility are entered, and corresponding to the name of each employee entered in the employee name entry field 94a, an information entry field for the overtime work performed by the employee in the month entered in the overtime work and leave management year and month entry field 92b. The system must include at least the following fields: a field for recording overtime work information 93b; a field for recording remaining paid leave days at the beginning of the year following employment, where the remaining number of paid leave days granted to the employee from the year following employment is recorded in the overtime work and leave management year and month entry field 92b; a field for recording remaining paid leave days from the previous year that the employee was unable to use and carried over to the current year, where the remaining number of paid leave days at the beginning of the month recorded in the overtime work and leave management year and month entry field 92b is recorded; and a field for recording annual leave days taken by the employee during a prescribed period 99b.

[0153] The employee name entry field 94b is used to enter the names of multiple employees working at the childcare facility. In this embodiment, the names are entered along with the date of employment. Since it is the same as the employee name entry field 94a, a detailed explanation is omitted. In the overtime work information entry field 93b, the overtime work information for this month (the month entered in the overtime work and leave management year and month entry field 92b) is entered, corresponding to the name of the employee entered in the employee name entry field 94a.

[0154] The overtime work information entry section 93b consists of multiple entry boxes, each corresponding to one hour. When overtime work is performed, the date should be entered in the entry box for each hour. As shown in the example in Figure 47, for example, the overtime work information for employee "Ayama Bmi" for this month shows that she worked 2 hours (2 boxes) of overtime on April 10th. Furthermore, the reason for the overtime work may also be entered. Figure 47 shows an example where the reason is entered as "Work" for work and "Meeting" for a meeting.

[0155] The director or supervisor can quickly see who is working how many hours of overtime by referring to the information recorded in section 93b of the overtime work information entry field on sheet 9B of the childcare facility operation support sheet. This information is also useful when it is necessary to urgently request someone to work overtime, preventing an uneven burden on specific staff members and enabling a fair and balanced work system overall. In the example of the childcare facility operation support sheet 9B, the overtime work information entry section 93b is composed of multiple entry boxes, each corresponding to one hour, making it easy to grasp at a glance how many hours of overtime work were performed. In this embodiment, one box represents one hour, but the unit per box may be changed as appropriate, such as 30 minutes or 2 hours per box.

[0156] The information to be entered in columns 95b through 100b described below is to be entered in correspondence with the employee's name. In section 95b, which is for recording the remaining number of paid leave days at the beginning of the fiscal year following employment, the number of paid leave days remaining at the beginning of this month will be recorded for the employee in question from the fiscal year following employment. In section 96b, which is for recording remaining paid leave days after 6 months of employment, the remaining number of paid leave days at the beginning of the month, out of the number of paid leave days granted after 6 months of employment, is to be entered. In section 97b, which is for recording the remaining paid leave days from the previous fiscal year, the number of remaining paid leave days carried over to the current fiscal year that the employee was unable to use up in the previous fiscal year is recorded as of the beginning of this month.

[0157] Section 98b for recording absences / leave of absences is where the number of absences / leave of absences other than paid leave taken by the employee is recorded. The field 99b for recording the number of paid leave days taken by the employee is where the number of paid leave days taken during the specified period is entered. The specified period is, for example, the number of paid leave days taken from the 21st of the previous month to the 20th of the current month.

[0158] According to the example in Figure 47, employee "Ayama Bmi" has 20 remaining paid leave days at the beginning of this month, out of the number of paid leave days granted from the year following her employment, as of the beginning of this month (according to the paid leave balance information entry field 95b for the year following employment). She has 0 paid leave days carried over to the current year that were not used up in the previous year (according to the paid leave balance information entry field 97b for the previous year). Furthermore, the number of paid leave days taken from the 21st of the previous month to the 20th of this month is 1, as shown in the annual leave days information entry field 99b, indicating that she took 1 day of paid leave. Paid leave is used from the remaining paid leave balance from the previous year. According to the previous year's paid leave balance information entry field 97b, this employee has 0 paid leave days that were not used in the previous year and carried over to the current year. Therefore, when taking paid leave, they will use the "20 days" of paid leave granted this year. Consequently, the paid leave balance information entry field 95b for the beginning of the year following the employee's employment in the following month's childcare facility operation support sheet 9B (May 2024) (not shown) will be entered as "19".

[0159] Furthermore, this embodiment includes a section 91b for recording each staff member's responsibilities by circling them. For example, in addition to "Director" indicating the head of the nursery, and numbers from "0" to "5" indicating the class in charge, the names of the departments established at the nursery, such as training and accident prevention, supplies, photographs and work summaries, etc., can be pre-filled, and each staff member's responsibilities can be recorded by circling them. Recording each staff member's responsibilities (roles) along with their name makes it easier to consider in advance how to handle situations when a staff member is absent.

[0160] In this embodiment, the childcare facility operation support sheet 9B was described as an example of the information entry fields of the present invention, and included fields for year and month 92b, employee name 94b, overtime work information 93b, paid leave balance information at the beginning of the year following employment 95b, paid leave balance information 6 months after employment 96b, paid leave balance information for the previous year 97b, absence / leave information 98b, and annual leave days taken information 99b.

[0161] Figure 48 is an overall plan view of the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 9C. The Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 9C is used to record annual paid leave information, and one sheet is used per year. Figure 49 is an example of how to fill out the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 9C. To make the contents of the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 9C easier to understand, Figure 49 shows a magnified view of the upper part of the Childcare Facility Management Support Sheet 9C.

[0162] The year of use is to be entered in the year entry field 92c of the childcare facility operation support sheet 9C. The staff name entry field 94c is where the names of multiple staff members working at the childcare facility are entered. In this embodiment, the names are entered along with the date of employment. A detailed explanation is omitted here as it is described in detail in the explanation of the childcare facility operation support sheet 9A. In the annual paid leave information entry field 95c, enclosed by a dashed line, the dates of the annual paid leave are entered sequentially in the number of days taken field 93c, corresponding to the employee's name entered in the employee name entry field 94c.

[0163] According to the example in the annual paid leave information entry field 95c in Figure 49, employee "Ayama Bmi" took her first day of annual paid leave for fiscal year 2024 on April 9, and employee "Fmoto Gyo" took her first day of annual paid leave for fiscal year 2024 on April 16, and her second day of annual paid leave for fiscal year 2024 on April 17. Furthermore, if there are any unused paid leave days from the previous year that have been carried over to the current year, these will be taken in order from the paid leave granted in the previous year. Therefore, two sheets of the childcare facility operation support sheet 9C will be used: one for the previous year (not shown) and one for the current year.

[0164] The above describes the structure and usage method of the childcare facility operation support sheet and childcare facility operation support sheet collection according to this embodiment. Note that the structure of the childcare facility operation support sheet and childcare facility operation support sheet collection according to this embodiment, as described with reference to Figures 1 to 49, merely explains the basic points of the present invention. That is, the technical scope of the childcare facility operation support sheet and childcare facility operation support sheet collection according to the present invention is not limited to the scope described in the above embodiments, and various modifications or improvements can be made to the above-described embodiments within the scope of the claims.
