MIRABO Launches Innovative Maternal and Child Health Services in Kanagawa

MIRABO, a Tokyo-based company specializing in services for local governments, has officially launched its maternal and child health app, 'mila-e (ミライー) Oyakotecho,' along with an online booking service named 'mila-e Yoyaku,' in Kanonji City, Kagawa Prefecture. The new services will be operational starting June 1, 2026, aiming to offer enhanced support for families navigating the parenting journey.

Background of 'mila-e Oyakotecho' and 'mila-e Yoyaku'

Kanonji City has been actively engaging in child-rearing support initiatives since 2025, utilizing an earlier app developed by MIRABO, known as the 'Kanonji City Child-Rearing App Hapiiku' (旧アプリ). To improve their services further and provide more tailored assistance for parenting households, the city is transitioning to the updated 'mila-e Oyakotecho' application. In conjunction with this transition, the new online reservation feature, 'mila-e Yoyaku,' is being added to streamline access to services.

Key Features of 'mila-e Oyakotecho'

The updated app will include numerous exciting features, including:

• - My Portal Integration: Users can now automatically display vaccination records in the app without the need for manual data entry, facilitating the tracking of immunizations.
• - Push Notifications: Parents can receive timely updates and important child-rearing information via push notifications, ensuring they are always informed about upcoming classes, consultations, and support resources.
• - Seamless Booking: By linking 'mila-e Oyakotecho' with 'mila-e Yoyaku,' users can seamlessly transition to booking parenting classes and consultations directly through the app, eliminating the hassle of phone reservations that require coordination with office hours.

This integration aims to reduce the burden on parenting households, allowing them to manage their parenting needs efficiently and conveniently through their smartphones.
