Inside the childcare facility. A past user from BDR, H.Y., commented, “I would catch glimpses of the children on walks around the campus, and I felt at ease that my child was being looked after on the same premises as where I was. I also enjoyed participating in seasonal events, such as Halloween, with my child.”
Birds-eye view of the facility. The buildings, in order of closeness, are the RIKEN Kids Yokohama, Central NMR Complex (donut-shaped), and West NMR Complex (bamboo-shoot shaped). In the background is the Tsurumi River.
