This paper reports on the kindergarten user’s aspects of working and their needs for child-care based on the result of questionnaire survey at Tama-City, Tokyo. We broke users’ condition and conation of working (working types) and their consideration of working and social child-care from their children’s young age (consideration types) down into patterns. And guardians’ consideration to working and nurturing, the selection reason for the kindergarten, needs for social child-care, and the working conditions of double-income guardians were understood. As a result, it was pointed out that there was the necessity of social child-care or “Child-nurturing support” in the wide sense including the working style etc. to the kindergarten users that had been thought that “Child care” needs were few.
