Their updated entries cover over 1,800 municipal areas nationwide. They take pride in the fact that the content is contributed and managed by mothers who share the same vision. Ikuhaku was created by a web design company to help children and families, and since 2015, they have been dedicated to providing timely, accurate, and relevant information to support families across Japan.

Their resource accessibility has been recognized and awarded by governmental agencies and local municipalities. Ikahuku's valuable contribution in supporting children and families continues to grow, with a focus on accessibility for all
