To prevent feelings of isolation, mothers with infant children require places of comfort and security outside of the home. Even when raising infants, mothers frequently visit commercial community facilities, making these optimal for creating said places. A tie-up was established with one such complex commercial facility, Minoh Q’s Mall, within which a place was created for women with infants. Events called the “Mino Mama Marché” were held, with the inclusion of a space where mothers could talk with midwives in a natural way. The Mino Mama Marché was held eight times from October 2018 through September 2019, with a total of approximately 3,500 mother-infant pairs visiting, and with the assistance of approximately 160 midwives. Also introduced was “Q’s Kosodate Tsudoi-no-Hiroba” (Q’s childcare gathering forum), with full-time staffing of midwives for mothers with infants. From June through September 2019, approximately 10 motherinfant pairs visited the space daily, consulting with the midwives about things such as breastfeeding and weaning. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, an online service called “Josanshi Café®” (“josanshi” means “midwife”) was also established. This service provided a place of comfort where mothers could visit easily, and discuss their anxieties, feelings of isolation, etc. Due to such activities, one can also anticipate increased motivation on the side of midwives. In the future, further studies are needed to clarify the effects of these engagements. Especially during this COVID-19 pandemic, spaces where mothers can experience consultations that fit their needs and schedules must be arranged via proactive dissemination of information.
