"Because I have children..." Turning experiences I had given up on into the best parent-child memories. Ai-kyu Inc. to launch on-site childcare service, including mobile baby room 'Ainiko Car', from April 2026.

Ai-kyu Inc. is launching a new on-site childcare service in April 2026, leveraging their experience with "Oyako Cafe Ainiko" pop-up events. The service aims to eliminate the need for parents to "give up" on experiences due to childcare needs, offering flexible solutions like a mobile baby room ('Ainiko Car'), event tents, and customized indoor play areas. This initiative seeks to create more inclusive community spaces where both parents and children can enjoy themselves without worry.

With the mission of "Creating a future for the community filled with love and smiles," Ai-kyu Inc. (Headquarters: Hayama Town, Kanagawa Prefecture, Representative: Maya Takegami) has been irregularly holding pop-up events "Oyako Cafe Ainiko" utilizing rental spaces since October 2025. With the motto "Moms and Dads have fun! Kids have fun too!!", they are creating places where parents struggling with childcare can have fun while their children also enjoy themselves, such as cafes with resident supervision staff and cooking classes with childcare.

Leveraging the know-how gained from operating these events, they will launch a new business in April 2026 to deliver a "place to belong" where families with children can easily gather.

They are already proceeding with implementation at wedding venues and local markets, and through this service of "delivering" rather than "having people come," they aim to create more places filled with love and smiles.

■ Background of Service Launch: Zero 'Giving Up' Due to Children

"I can't go to weddings because I'd be a bother to others," "I can't enjoy browsing the market I'm interested in." -- To solve such earnest voices from parents, Ai-kyu Inc.'s service "Ainiko" will start activities to "deliver a place to belong." They will construct an environment where parents and children can spend time together smiling, by developing three plans tailored to the nature and location of events.

■ 3 Selectable On-site Plans

They will provide the optimal "play space" and "supervision" according to the venue's conditions.

1. [Outdoor/Mobile] Ainiko Car Plan "Wherever the car is parked, it becomes a baby room."

This is a mobile baby room equipped with air conditioning, a diaper changing station, a nursing sofa, a microwave, and a pot. By simply parking the vehicle, it adds "the highest standard of safety" to outdoor events. With the optional tent setup, a childcare facility with a kids' space and baby room is instantly completed.

2. [Event Type] Ainiko Tent Plan "Any place becomes an exciting childcare facility."

Utilizing quick-to-set-up and dismantle air tents. A stylish kids' space with cushions and fences is set up instantly. With the cafe option, it also functions as a resting place for parents and children.

3. [Indoor/Utilization Type] Ainiko Play Area Plan "Turn existing spaces into 'special places'."

Customizes meeting rooms or private rooms. With safe mats and carefully selected toys, a calm childcare environment is created. Since supervision is possible right next to ceremonies or business meetings, both parents and children can spend time with peace of mind, without anxiety about being separated.

Planned Implementation Examples (Held after April)

Weddings

To allow guests with children to enjoy the ceremony without worrying about those around them, a dedicated childcare and play area will be set up within the venue.

Local Markets

While parents are shopping or older children are in workshops, a space where younger children can be safely supervised and play to their heart's content will be provided, increasing satisfaction for both parents and children.

Representative's Message

Although the world has become more welcoming to babies and children than imaginable in the past, I have personally felt the strong desire for "places where parents with children can go with peace of mind" and the earnest concerns about current services feeling "not quite enough..." I understand the sentiment of "It's only a few years while the children are small," "Enjoy it while you think it's just for now," and "You'll look back on it fondly in a few years," but there's definitely a feeling of not being able to give up.

While addressing those feelings, we want to equally deliver the best experiences that creators offer to those working hard at parenting.

Please let us help you fully realize "gentle events" where no one has to give up on participating.
