A ¥10,000 children's gift certificate at a home visit interview around the 8th month of pregnancy
Around the 8th month of pregnancy, a support worker such as a public health nurse or nurse visits your home for an interview. You can talk about how to spend the time until the birth and how to prepare for after the birth, and you also receive a children's gift certificate worth ¥10,000. This program started in FY2026 (April 2026–March 2027).
It covers people registered as residents of the city who are around the 8th month of pregnancy, and applies to people who reach the 8th month of pregnancy in or after April 2026.
A notice is mailed to you around the 7th month of pregnancy. Use the QR code on the notice to answer a questionnaire in advance and book the visit date and time. If you moved into the city after the 6th month of pregnancy (20 weeks), the notice may not reach you in time, so contact the public health center.
