Mothers and babies living in Minato City with a baby under 1 (under 4 months only for the day service at Saiseikai Central Hospital) can use 6 day-service visits and 6 breast care sessions per birth at a low cost. For breast care, you can freely choose outpatient or home visit each time.

For taxable households, the user fee is 10% of each medical institution's fee (up to ¥2,000). Free for households exempt from resident tax. To cancel, contact the facility and the Minato Public Health Center by 10 a.m. on the day before the day of use. If you contact them later, the out-of-pocket fee is charged and it is counted as a use.

There are 6 day-service facilities, 7 breast care (outpatient) facilities and 5 breast care (home visit) organizations. They can be used regardless of the hospital where you gave birth.

Apply from the 8th month of pregnancy until 14 days before the day of use by submitting the usage registration application at the counter, by mail or online. When the registration decision notice arrives, book directly with each facility. This is a separate application from the overnight short stay, and you can use both.

Nationality and residence status

The official page (checked in October 2026) sets no condition on nationality or residence status that we found. Eligibility follows the official conditions, not the language of this page; many programs require resident registration in the municipality.
