You can receive support from midwives, etc. for physical recovery and childcare after birth, in 4 forms: overnight, day care, home visit, and day service. The out-of-pocket cost is ¥2,500 per day for overnight, ¥1,250 per day for day care, ¥1,000 per time for home visits, and ¥500 per time for the day service (lunch is extra if needed). From April 1, 2026, the out-of-pocket cost of overnight, day care, and home visit types was lowered to half the previous amount. The eligible period differs by type. Overnight and day care require being under 4 months after birth as of the requested date, and home visits under 1 year after birth. The day service at Sukoyaka Plaza Adachi became available on Thursdays from April 1, 2026 for mothers and babies from 5 months to under 1 year after birth (the same on Wednesdays; Mondays and Tuesdays are for under 5 months after birth). Overnight, day care, and home visits can be used up to 7 days (times) combined. For overnight stays with multiple births, ¥1,000 per day is added for each child from the second. Households exempt from resident tax and households on public assistance are exempt from the out-of-pocket cost. For overnight, etc., you need to apply for approval of use from 28 weeks of pregnancy.
