Urban low-rise residential areas require childcare-friendly neighborhood-type urban regeneration to enhance the local environment, foster resident communities, and stimulate the local economy through comprehensive childcare support. This study aims to propose a child-friendly neighborhood-type urban regeneration plan to establish a childcare-supportive environment and revitalize the social and economic landscape of local communities. This study employs a mixed-method approach, incorporating literature review and survey analysis. The findings are as follows: First, it is essential to adopt a multi-faceted approach to resident participation projects to effectively implement childcare-friendly neighborhood-type urban regeneration in urban low-rise residential areas. Second, urban regeneration projects should prioritize environmental improvements focused on safety, cultural and artistic engagement, and natural experiences to create a childcare-friendly environment. Third, securing dedicated support spaces for urban regeneration is crucial. These spaces should integrate multiple functions, including interaction, relaxation, sharing, caregiving, and education, to provide comprehensive support for both childcare and urban regeneration initiatives. Fourth, to establish a foundation for revitalizing the local economy, it is necessary to create employment opportunities through social enterprise start-up support, particularly focusing on childcare services and employment assistance for childcare households. This study contributes to the discourse on urban regeneration by providing a strategic framework for childcare-friendly urban development, emphasizing its role in enhancing urban livability and economic sustainability.
