This research investigated actual situations of child-rearing support activities at a nursery school and a child-rearing support center. In particular, the authors examined the nursery school teachers' views on child-rearing support and the parents' opinions about the support, in their own voices. The problems and limitations of child-rearing support activities were revealed by using questionnaires distributed to the child-rearing support center staff, the nursery school teachers, and the parents in 2003. Parents' needs and expectations, and their comments after using the center were reviewed. At the same time, nursery school teachers were asked about the realities of child-rearing activities including problems they have encountered. They were also asked to describe ideal child-rearing situations. The results suggested what the parents were expecting from child-rearing support activities at a nursery school or a child-rearing support center. However, most of the parents know nothing about the systems of support activities currently available to them at nearby nurseries. The survey concluded that the present system of child-rearing support activities is taxing nursery school teachers beyond their limits.
