The workspace "cotto" (Dotemachi, Hirosaki City), where you can work with children in Hirosaki, opened on October 28th.

The same space on the 2nd floor of the collaborative space "HLS Hirosaki". HLS Hirosaki opened in 2017 (Heisei 29) with the concept of "learning together across regions and generations (co-learning)" and develops learning and personal use as well as rental space business.

Shota Tsuji, the representative of Machinaka Campus, who runs HLS Hirosaki and Cot, said, "I have been thinking about services aimed at the child-rearing generation. I want to meet the needs of home-based workers who cannot take care of their children." "Kott was named after the tagline of" playing, learning, and working "together with children."

The store of about 27 tsubo is divided into a kids space and a workspace, and a play coordinator is stationed in the kids space to take care of children. You can use the printer (charged), power supply, and Wi-Fi provided in the workspace. In addition, there is a nursing space, a diaper changing table, and a kitchen where you can cook by bringing in ingredients.

The basic charge is drop-in, and for up to 2 children, 2 hours = 500 yen, 1 day = 1,000 yen. Every time one child increases, 2 hours = 250 yen increase, 1 day = 500 yen increase. The monthly contract is 12,000 yen. Chartered use is 1 hour = 2,500 yen.

Mr. Tsuji says, "I want to build a system that allows parents to share the work contracted by various businesses inside and outside the prefecture, and work to foster a child-rearing generation who can stand alone."

Business hours are from 9:00 to 17:00. Closed on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays.
