Abstract Child care center, one of the public facilities, has recently been increased. In particular, infants and children who use this place are frequently exposed in danger because of their biological characteristics. Thus, survey of the child care center's indoor air are conducted in this study. As a result of the child care center's indoor air quality measurement, formaldehyde(HCHO), TBC, CO and fine dust are measured within pollution standard except fine dust which exceeds one. Nevertheless, CO2 of 6 places exceed pollution standard. It is because of numerous people in narrow place and lack of ventilation. Therefore, proper administration will be required in the future. Moreover, the survey about the consciousness and administration of indoor air quality targeting 161 teachers who worked in child care centers. As a result, 64.22% teachers are satisfied with the child care center's indoor air quality. By the way, 75.78% are interested in reality of the child care center's indoor air. However, awareness of the pollutant is large difference in indoor air pollutant. And they think the most urgent pollution is other pollutions rather than indoor air pollution. Thus, seriousness and awareness of the indoor air pollution are relatively dealt lower than others. It means that there is potential danger in indoor air quality of child care center. In conclusion, indoor air quality education should be held actively which only 19.88% teacher are educated now.
