17.Izumi Ward, a town that is easy to raise children.

In Izumi Ward, we are engaged in various initiatives aimed at becoming a child-friendly town Izumi Ward.
In order to respond to the voices received during the infant health checkup and keep a record of the child's growth, we will set up a "photo spot" for commemorative photography so that you can use it as a place for interaction between parents and children. "Kids Circle" has also been set up.
In addition, at the time of medical examination, we decided to place a diaper collection box at the venue so that diapers could be discarded.
For child-raising households visiting the ward office, we will promote initiatives to create a friendly environment.
Please feel free to drop in at the ward office.

In addition, in Yokohama City, under the slogan Oyako More Smile Package, we are promoting various initiatives to realize comfortable child-rearing in Yokohama.
In order to reduce the financial burden of pregnancy and childbirth and to maintain an environment where childbirth can be done with peace of mind, in addition to conventional subsidies and benefits, the city will provide subsidies on its own during pregnancy and childbirth. In each case, applications will be accepted from October, so please check the details from the link below for those who are eligible.
