Sultan Agung Islamic Daycare Supports Student Mothers at UNISSULA

Universitas Islam Sultan Agung (UNISSULA) provides accessible childcare services through Sultan Agung Islamic Daycare, located within the Pesanmasa UNISSULA complex.

The facility provides childcare for babies and toddlers and is designed to support parents who require safe and supervised care for their children while carrying out daily activities. For student mothers, access to childcare can help them continue attending classes and other academic activities while their children are cared for in a dedicated environment.

Childcare Facility within the UNISSULA Environment

Sultan Agung Islamic Daycare operates within the UNISSULA campus environment and offers childcare services for:

• babies;
• toddlers;
• daily care;
• monthly care;
• early childhood activities; and
• moral and character-building programmes.

The public information displayed by the daycare identifies the service as Sultan Agung Islamic Daycare and shows its location at the Pesanmasa UNISSULA complex.

This provides student parents with access to childcare in close proximity to the university.

Supporting Recent Mothers

The availability of childcare close to the university is particularly important for recent mothers who need to continue their studies.

Student mothers may face practical challenges in attending lectures, academic meetings, examinations, or other university activities when childcare is unavailable.

By providing an accessible daycare facility within the UNISSULA environment, the university helps reduce this barrier and supports mothers in maintaining their participation in higher education.

Childcare for Babies and Toddlers

The daycare accepts babies and toddlers and provides structured care appropriate to young children.

Its public materials show childcare activities, supervised play, early learning, and child-development activities.

The service is promoted as providing:

• moral education;
• character building;
• daily supervision; and
• structured activities for young children.

These services provide parents with an organised childcare option while they undertake study, employment, or other responsibilities.

Flexible Daily and Monthly Services

Sultan Agung Islamic Daycare provides both daily and monthly childcare options.

This flexibility can be particularly useful for student mothers because academic schedules may vary between days, semesters, examinations, practical activities, and other university commitments.

Daily childcare allows parents to use the facility when needed, while monthly arrangements provide a more regular childcare option.

Supporting Academic Participation

Accessible childcare can directly support student participation by allowing mothers to attend:

• lectures;
• laboratory and practical sessions;
• academic advising;
• examinations;
• student activities;
• research-related activities; and
• other university programmes.

The availability of childcare within the UNISSULA environment means student mothers have a practical option for arranging care while continuing their academic responsibilities.

Paid but Accessible Childcare

Sultan Agung Islamic Daycare operates as a paid childcare service.

The public information shown by the facility includes registration and monthly fee information, demonstrating that the service has an established operational structure.

Although the childcare service is not presented as free, its availability within the UNISSULA environment still provides an important support mechanism for student parents and recent mothers.

Safe and Structured Childcare Environment

The facility provides a structured environment for children, with activities designed for babies and toddlers.

The daycare’s public communication shows children participating in supervised indoor and outdoor activities, early learning, and developmental programmes.

This gives parents access to childcare that is more than passive supervision, with an emphasis on education, development, and character building.

Institutional Support for Women’s Participation

Childcare availability is an important part of supporting women’s participation in higher education.

For mothers who are also students, the ability to access childcare can reduce one of the practical barriers to attending university.

Through Sultan Agung Islamic Daycare, UNISSULA provides a childcare option that can help student mothers continue their studies while also meeting childcare responsibilities.

Commitment to Student Mothers

UNISSULA recognises that student participation can be affected by family and childcare responsibilities.

The presence of Sultan Agung Islamic Daycare within the university environment demonstrates an institutional effort to provide practical support for parents with babies and toddlers.

By offering accessible daily and monthly childcare services close to the campus, the facility can support recent mothers in continuing to attend university courses and participate in academic life.
