About Ashitaba Co., Ltd.
At Ashitaba, with the slogan Make A Smile!, we want to help create smiles for children, families raising children, and everyone in the community. We operate child-rearing support centers and public facilities (gender equality center, welfare center for the elderly, community center, etc.).
As the environment surrounding children and families is undergoing major changes, it is becoming necessary for society as a whole to support the children’s own ability to grow and the family’s ability to raise children. From the perspective that child-rearing support is necessary not only for families with working parents, but also for all families raising children, the entire community provides support for families raising children, not limited to after-school care for children at home. I am doing my best to keep going.
