That page has a not so nice undertone of "help the poor", so I'm
reluctant to tag my amenity=kindergarten as a social_facility even
though it really is a "social facility". So maybe I should help to
expand it to be more about social and less about "social outreach",
but I would still tag most daycares as kindergarten:

Obviously it's hard to describe daycare since it varies so much from
country to country, but the proposals don't seem to touch many of the
aspects brought up when you asked for comments the last time.

open_hours is not even usefull to map around here since it can mean so
many different things.

amenity=kindergarten
religion=scientology
age=1-6
