Outline of Final Research Achievements	This study aimed to develop a support system through collaboration between childcare and community/occupational health care to enhance work-family balance among families caring for infants and toddlers. Initially, we aimed to develop an effective support system through collaboration between childcare and community/occupational health to facilitate a smooth transition to employment for parents during child-rearing through qualitative data analysis by interviewing childcare workers, community/occupational health professionals, and parents, but the Corona disaster forced us to change our original plan.The development of a new support system was not realized. But the actual situation of work-family balance in families raising infants and toddlers and the current support issues required of public health nurses and childcare workers were clarified, and suggestions for system development were obtained.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements	男性・女性共に、経済および次世代育成の担い手として役割期待が増す中、仕事を持つ保育園児の親が、妊娠・出産・就労復帰にかけて仕事と家庭のバランスを保とうとする際に直面してきた課題や支援ニーズの経時的な変化を捉えることができた。このことは、保健師と保育士による連携支援がどの場面で必要かを具体化することにつながった。子どもの発育・発達の視点に留まらず、親のwell-beingを考慮した子育て支援を検討する上で重要な知見が得られたという点で、社会的意義は大きい。
