In an event on June 28, 2024, Taipei City Council unveiled its childcare center, becoming the first local council in the country to establish a workplace and home-style childcare center. Supported by Taipei City's Social Affairs Bureau, Director Yao Shu-wen attended the ceremony to offer encouragement. Taipei City Council members attended the event, including new parents and soon-to-be parents, aiming to support work-life balance. Council President Dai Xi-qin hopes the center will tackle Taiwan's declining birth rate and assist colleagues in balancing work and childcare responsibilities, setting an example as a government agency. Overcoming past challenges, efforts were made to establish the center within the council premises for a more accommodating environment, ensuring focus on serving the public without concerns about family responsibilities.
