The purpose of this paper is to examine how the staff of a community parenting support center work to create a place where parents and children can feel as comfortable as if the were in their own place. A case analysis shows that it is important for staff to accept parents and their children without any judgment in order to create such a place. Exchanging information and communication are also important factors in the creation of the sense of "their own place." The situation can form new human relationships in which the difficulties of parenting are transformed into the pleasures of parenting. The result suggests the possibility of a different concept of "community" from the concept of community used in the concept of "community welfare".
