The analysis results are as follows. First, parents are most satisfied with the part-time childcare service for home childcare support, recognized it as a necessary project and expect that it will fulfill its role as a professional organization that can efficiently provide support to improve the quality of education and care of infant education institutions when early childhood education and childcare are integrated. Second, childcare teachers are satisfied with customized consulting support, healing programs, and substitute teacher support and recognize them as necessary projects. Third, directors are satisfied with substitute teacher and childcare staff training, parent education, and counseling projects, and perceived that childcare teachers and parents are growing through various supports. Integration of early childhood education and childcare requires a retraining process for qualification of existing childcare teachers by taking advantage of the geographical accessibility and convenience of si/gun/gu childcare support centers, and educational support to strengthen the expertise of childcare teachers is expected. This study is significant in that it suggests the direction of the functions and roles of childcare support centers so that various services can be efficiently delivered to infant families and infant education institutions in the region at the time when the integration of early childhood education and childcare began
