Ah, Tokyo. Navigating even simple things can be a rollercoaster. 区立柏木子ども園乳児園舎 sounds like a pretty standard kindergarten, though.

Japanese people are incredibly helpful, even with a serious language barrier. You'll be fine. Don't overthink it. Just be polite and try your best. They'll understand way more than you think.
