The certificate that lets your child use child development support is issued by the ward where your child is registered as a resident — and it can be used at our classroom in Waseda whichever ward you live in. Choose your ward for the offices you will deal with: the certificate counter, the developmental consultation, the school-entry consultation and the foreign-resident help desk, each with the official page it comes from.
CHOOSE YOUR WARD
Live outside the 23 wards (Musashino, Mitaka, Chōfu and the rest of Tokyo, or a neighbouring prefecture)? The same system applies: apply at your city's disability welfare division. Tell us where you live and we will point you to the right counter.
You do not need a diagnosis, a certificate, or fluent Japanese to take the first step. Send us a message in English, tell us your child's age, where you live and what you are noticing, and we will take it from there.
