The purpose of this research is to provide design guidelines for breastfeeding and diaper-changing spaces in commercial facilities from an environmental point of view. These spaces provisions are important supports for childcare. On the basis of several surveys, including fact-finding surveys of these spaces and observation surveys of users’ behavior, the guidelines are organized according to size, location, accessibility, interior design, equipment, and other criteria. Moreover, our research expands the scope to the design of other child spaces that are comfortable for both children and their parents, beyond the design of breastfeeding and diaper-changing spaces. To illustrate the ideal condition of these spaces, we conducted observation surveys for the facilities and interview surveys for those involved in the planning, design, and operation of the facilities. In conclusion, we set seven principles for designing spaces that are comfortable for both children and adults.

An assessment system together with proposals for administrative improvement was explored through a series of surveys and analyses with emphasis on jurisdictional issues around city administration integrating child-friendly policies and programs. From a point of view of integration and inter-departmental cooperation, the state of integrated children’s departments and their problems were investigated. From a point of view of policy categories defined as areas of related policies and programs as well as factors affecting choices of administrative formulation, decisions to integrate specific policy areas were clearly related to the factors of city scale, urbanity, population structure, etc., and the evaluation of potential for establishing the city’s own children’s department and for integrating specific policy areas was possible. A process for systematic description of diverse cities and policies were also proposed.
