Overnight ¥8,000 for 2 days/1 night, day visit ¥2,000, home visit ¥600 (free for tax-exempt households)

Mothers and babies after birth can receive care at medical institutions or midwife clinics in one of 3 forms: overnight, day visit, or home visit. The overnight type is ¥8,000 for 2 days/1 night and ¥4,000 for each additional day, up to 6 nights/7 days (7 days in total), within 120 days after birth. The day visit type is ¥2,000 per time, up to 7 times, within 6 months after birth. The home visit type is ¥600 per time, up to 5 times, within 1 year after birth. Households exempt from resident tax and households receiving public assistance are exempt from costs, and for multiple births the fee for the second and later babies is waived. It is Itabashi City's core postpartum support, which can be used for physical recovery after birth and to ease worries about childcare.
