The tag amenity=childcare is fairly popular (used 17,000 times), and
it's supported by the iD editor and the Openstreetmap-carto rendering.

Should this tag be added to the wiki page Map Features?

The original proposal wasn't supported because some people thought
that amenity=kindergarten should be used for all types of childcare,
not only preschools/kindergartens. This seems to be the common
situatoin in Germany, but may not match they types of daycare /
childcare / preschool facilities available in other countries. For
example, in the USA most preschools do not take older children after
school; such after-school care is usually provided by separate
programs.
