Mothers and babies after birth can receive breastfeeding guidance, breast care, childcare advice, and support for rest in 3 forms: overnight (mother-and-baby short stay), day care (mother-and-baby day care), and home visits. The out-of-pocket cost differs by type: overnight is ¥7,000 for 2 days/1 night, then ¥3,500 for each additional day; day care is ¥1,500 per day; and a home visit is ¥500 per time (about 90 minutes per time). Overnight can be used up to 7 days until the baby is roughly 4 months old; day care up to 12 days until under 1 year (18 days for households with multiple births); and home visits up to 6 times until under 1 year (10 times for households with multiple births). However, applications for home visits on or after October 1, 2026 are temporarily suspended and are expected to resume around February 2027. People who had the pregnancy interview on or after April 1, 2026 are given an e-coupon. To register the coupon, you need to add Nerima City's official LINE account as a friend. Free use for households exempt from resident tax and households on public assistance is not applied automatically. You cannot use it for free unless you apply separately with the LoGo Form from 30 weeks of pregnancy and receive the city's approval.

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.
