COMPANY
Operating Company
What's Josan-she's
We operate "Josanshi's," a safe and reliable postpartum care service provided by certified professionals who support the front lines of pregnancy, childbirth, and childcare—including midwives, nurses, and childcare workers. We offer a range of prenatal and postnatal services, such as infant babysitting for very young babies, operation of postpartum care facilities commissioned by local governments, and specialized staffing services for maternity hospitals.
After first providing event childcare at IVS in 2024 and continuing in 2025, we have been officially commissioned by IVS and will independently manage event childcare in 2026.
We provide attentive care by experienced, qualified professionals.
We create an environment where children can be safely entrusted to us from 0 years old.
Because our sitting services are provided by qualified professionals (a midwife, nurse, or childcare worker), we can care for children from immediately after birth up to preschool age.
Josan-she’s sitting service is a reliable service with a very high customer satisfaction rating of 4.92 out of 5 from our users.
Message
We don’t want people who take on challenges to have to give up just because they are raising children.
Since taking charge of childcare at IVS from 2024, we have felt more strongly with each event how meaningful it is to create an environment where people can come with their children.
Those who leave their children with us so they can attend sessions.
Those who go to pitch to VCs in order to raise funds.
“Because I could leave my child in safe hands, I was able to go seize the opportunity.”
The expressions of those who tell us this are what drive us.
Because we too are a startup taking on challenges, we believe we can provide the support you truly need.
This year as well, we will wholeheartedly take care of your precious children.
Representative Director Aiko Watanabe
