Abstract

This community service discusses the design and development of a built environment in a Child Care Center (TPA) based on the concept of a smart home with a case study of Timiomi Daycare. The main focus is on creating a safe, comfortable space that supports the growth and development of early childhood through the integration of technology and a child-friendly design approach. The purpose of this community service is adapted from literature studies, field observations, and interviews with daycare managers and parents. The results of community service from this study indicate that the development of a physical environment supported by smart technology such as a security monitoring system, automatic lighting, and room temperature control can improve the quality of service and provide a sense of security for children and parents. The facilities are equipped with educational toys, puzzles, blocks, story books, and soft play areas, garden areas with safe physical games such as slides, seesaws, and swings, aimed at stimulating gross and fine motor skills, and training social interaction. In addition, flexible spatial planning, selection of non-toxic materials, and integration of educational play areas also support children's motor and cognitive development. The results of this community service recommend a model for developing a TPA environment that is adaptive to children's needs, sustainable, and supports a modern care system based on smart homes.
