Mila-e Oyako Techo App Launch in Kawanishi, Yamagata
The launch of the 'mila-e Oyako Techo' app marks a significant step in supporting families in Kawanishi, a town in Yamagata Prefecture. Developed by Mirabo Inc., headquartered in Chiyoda, Tokyo, this mother and child health app is set to be introduced on April 13, 2026, under the name 'Kawanishi Parenting App Kawaruru'.
Background of the Launch
Since 2023, Kawanishi has been utilizing the previously established 'Kawaruru' app, which was initially based on Mirabo's mother and child health app. This app catered to various child-rearing needs, including making reservations for activities such as weaning food classes and parenting consultations. In an effort to enhance support for families, the app has been revamped into the 'mila-e Oyako Techo'.
This upgrade aims to provide comprehensive, supportive consultancy for child-rearing households. The new app includes innovative features such as integration with the My Number Portal, which allows vaccination records to be automatically imported into the app, eliminating the need for manual data entry. This greatly streamlines the process, allowing parents to easily manage their children's vaccination schedules.
Key Features of the App
In addition to the new integration feature, the 'mila-e Oyako Techo' app retains vital functionalities that promote seamless communication between the municipality and families:
- - Email and Push Notification System: Parents receive timely updates from Kawanishi based on their child's age and development stage.
- - Vaccination Scheduler: A specially patented feature assists users in managing vaccination timelines, helping to avoid missed immunizations.
- - Electronic Health Record Features: Parents can securely store their child's growth charts and health check records in a personalized digital space.
These features, among others, are designed to support a nurturing and informed environment for both parents and children.
