Asuiku" temporary storage service "Happiiku" with a satisfaction rating of over 90%.
Happiiku" is a temporary childcare service provided by ASUKU in cooperation with various commercial facilities, with the aim of creating "refreshment time" for mothers and fathers with small children, who usually have difficulty enjoying shopping and dining in a relaxed manner. This is a temporary childcare service provided by ASUKU in cooperation with a variety of commercial facilities. Childcare workers take care of children safely in shopping malls and provide a comfortable time for both parents and children.
We provide age-appropriate play for children, including sensory and educational play that is difficult to experience at home. Children can enjoy interacting with caregivers and friends in a special childcare space with joint mats. Experienced caregivers watch over the children while taking care of their safety, allowing them to freely express their interests and concerns. Parents can enjoy shopping, cafes, lunches, and other "me time" while their children are in our care.
We also send a "contact report with photos" to "Asuiku Line" on the same day, which has been well received each time.
First "Happiiku" event at FOLEO Otsu Ichiriyama
FOLEO Otsu Ichiriyama is a commercial facility that has been involved in a number of activities that cater to local families raising children, such as seasonal events and children's workshops. The "Hapiiku" service is the first "temporary childcare service" to be introduced at this facility, and aims to provide new value and convenience to parents during this time of the year when demand for year-end visits to the facility increases.
December is the season when shopping demand is at its highest due to Christmas preparations and year-end sales, and we receive many comments from parents who want to "take their time shopping" and "leave their children safely". In order to respond to such requests, we have recently launched "Happiiku" at FOLEO Otsu Ichiriyama, providing a fun and safe environment for children to spend time together.
This service is designed for mothers and fathers who want to take their time to select Christmas gifts, but find it difficult to do so with their children in tow.

About Asuiku Co.
Asuiku Co., Ltd. operates "Asuiku," a matching platform that allows users to find a temporary childcare service within one minute from LINE, with the keyword "childcare" as the goal of creating a wellbeing society for both parents and children. Asuiku" is a platform that contributes to the creation of alone time for parents, and has enabled paperless, cashless, and phone-free temporary childcare reservations and on-site payments that were previously made mainly by phone or paper.
Currently, more than 110 childcare facilities, mainly in the Tokyo metropolitan area, are available for online reservation. All communication with the childcare facility and contact sheets are also available on LINE, so even busy childcare providers can easily use the service in their spare time.
After the childcare is completed, the customer receives an "online contact book" with photos and comments on how the child was doing during the temporary care, which reassures the customer and makes them want to use the service again, resulting in an increasing number of repeat customers.
In 2022, the program won the 16th Kids Design Award and the Baby Tech Awards Special Award, and in 2023, in addition to the matching platform, we will start a "hands-on childcare" program that combines childcare with "workplaces" and "real things" such as train stations, department stores, and companies, where children can have exciting and fascinating experiences with the support of our childcare staff. We have started "hands-on" childcare, where children can have fascinating and authentic experiences with the support of our childcare staff. The program has received high satisfaction and evaluation from parents and is expanding its partnerships with cooperating companies.
