About Asuiku's 'Waku-iku' Program

Asuiku has developed a platform that not only connects parents to childcare services but also offers hands-on experiences in various workplace settings, like stations, department stores, and corporate offices. This innovative approach is termed 'Waku-iku,' which includes the 'Eki-iku,' 'Taka-iku,' and 'Car-iku' series. Each program allows children to be looked after by nurturing professionals while engaging in exciting, real-world experiences outside formal schooling.

The 'Eki-iku' program stands out for its popularity, often fully booked and with a high satisfaction rating averaging 9.6 out of 10. The program has a remarkable re-participation rate of over 60%, demonstrating its effectiveness in providing engaging experiences that parents and children alike appreciate.

Launch of the 'Waku Waku Shigoto 100 Project'

In line with fostering children's growth, Asuiku has recently initiated the 'Waku Waku Shigoto 100 Project,' which started on August 18, 2026. This program aims to broaden children's understanding of various professions in Japan while enabling them to experience 'real' work environments in collaboration with businesses and local governments. The theme, 'Japanese Jobs, Children's Aspirations,' emphasizes exposing children to authentic workplace settings, thereby expanding their future career choices. Initiatives include both special projects with railway and construction sectors and the creation of ‘Waku Waku Shigoto Trip’ programs that allow children to naturally engage with multiple careers.
