, ‘(Gyeonggi=News1) Reporter Choedae-ho = Gyeonggi-do has decided to provide 1 million won in transportation expenses each to pregnant women in childbirth-vulnerable areas (Yeongcheon, Gapyeong, Yangpyeong, Anseong, Pocheon, Yeoju) starting next year. Also, the subsidy for postpartum care fees for second or more children giving birth will be increased from 500,000 won per person to 2 million won.’,
,
, “The province announced on the 22nd that it is promoting the ‘Gyeonggi-do Love Eye Project,’ a policy to support pregnancy and childbirth experiences that are felt by residents of the region.”,
,
, “The main contents of the Love Eye Project include △Operation of ‘Parents’ First School’ △Pregnancy, childbirth, and childcare information in hand (easily confirmed through the GyeonggiSmart app) △Convenient transportation to hospitals, support for transportation expenses for pregnant women △Distribution of birth congratulatory cards ‘Gyeonggi A-idumpbong (Book)’ △Postpartum care expenses in childbirth-vulnerable areas covered (zero) △For multi-child families, VIP access to public parking lots, and more.”,
,
, “Starting this August until November, the ‘Parents’ First School’ will be operated to educate 55 pairs of expecting parents on pregnancy, childbirth processes, the advantages of natural childbirth, and experiences of caring for the baby by fathers.”,
,
, ‘Experts such as obstetricians, neonatal intensive care unit nurses, etc., will serve as instructors for the education program conducted at the Infertility and Postpartum Depression Counseling Center in Gyeonggi Northern District (Dongguk University Ilsan Hospital). Recruitment information will be provided through Gyeonggi-do’s official website and other channels in the future.’,
,
, ‘Starting from October, congratulatory cards from the provincial governor will be delivered to childbirth households to share the joy of birth. Next year, a project will be implemented to send pregnancy and childcare-related books to pregnant women.’,
,
, “Acknowledging the difficulty that residents face in finding and applying for pregnancy, childbirth, and childcare-related policies driven by the government or local authorities, the province will launch a service from October through ‘GyeonggiSmart’ to provide comprehensive information and easy application in one place.”,
,
, ‘GyeonggiSmart will provide personalized information based on MyData and issue citizen cards (multi-child cards, etc.), connecting services that provide pregnancy, childbirth, and childcare information tailored to individuals and assist in application submission.’,
,
, ‘To address blind spots in pregnancy and childbirth care, transportation expenses of 1 million won per person will be provided to pregnant women residing in the six municipalities in childbirth-vulnerable areas with poor infrastructure such as Yeongcheon, Gapyeong, Yangpyeong, Anseong, Pocheon, and Yeoju.’,
,
, ‘Furthermore, discussions will be held with childbirth-vulnerable municipalities to explore ways to reduce the burden of postpartum care. It is under consideration to increase the postpartum care subsidy previously given per newborn of 50,000 won to 100,000 won for the first child and 200,000 won for the second or more children.’,
,
, ‘The increase in transportation expenses and postpartum care support will be aimed for implementation next year after going through preliminary processes such as consultations with the Ministry of Health and Welfare regarding social security systems.’,
,
, ‘Efforts are underway to expand the reduction in parking fees for public parking lots for households with two or more children. Currently, discussions are underway with the municipalities to allow a 100% reduction in fees for the first 2 hours after the existing 50% reduction, with a subsequent 50% reduction for the remaining time.’,
,
, ‘Out of the six municipalities that have restrictions on local residents for fee reductions, four plan to abolish the local restrictions. The remaining two are also in discussions with the municipalities to abolish the restrictions.’,
