International Preschool in Shiba Park
1 minute on foot from Toei Mita Line Shiba-kōen Station, Exit A3. Right by the lush greenery of Shiba Park, you’ll find 「Star Kids International Preschool」. In this place where children with different cultures and languages gather every day, English blends into their daily lives not as "something to study" but as "something to use". For ages 1 to 6. From daycare to preschool and after-school, we offer courses that support each stage of growth.
Start with Baby Steps (half-day daycare) and First Step (full-day daycare) from age 1, then move on to the Preschool course at age 3. You can choose 2–5 days a week, half day or full day, to suit your family’s pace. Even those who feel "going every day right away is worrying" can start with fewer days, so you can feel at ease.
As a facility eligible for subsidies for non-certified childcare centers, the free early childhood education program is available. We also offer early-morning and extended care, creating an environment where full-time working parents can continue without strain.
3 recommended points
01
Daycare and preschool from age 1
Starting with Baby Steps (half-day daycare) and First Step (full-day daycare) available from 12 months, then the Preschool course from age 3, and on to After School. Because courses continue in step with your child’s growth, there’s no need to worry about "what should we do next?" You can start with two days a week and increase the days as they get used to it. It’s a place where children can take their first step into group life at their own pace, without rushing.
02
English childcare in a multicultural environment
Children who come here bring with them different languages and cultures. In such an environment, they use English and build up experiential learning in science, culture, and more——that accumulation nurtures a natural command of English and a gentle sensitivity to diversity. We aim to be a place where "that was fun" becomes the best kind of learning.
03
1 minute from Shiba-kōen Station ・ Supports free-education program
A 1-minute walk from Toei Mita Line Shiba-koen Station, Exit A3. It’s also a 4-minute walk from Toei Oedo Line Daimon Station. As a facility eligible for subsidies for fees at non-certified childcare facilities, it can be used under the free early childhood education program. We also offer early-morning and extended childcare, giving you peace of mind knowing you can pick up your child after work—something that matters greatly because it’s part of everyday life.
