2023-2024 China Maternal and Infant Care Services Market Research Report

Think Tank Online

The maternity and parenting services market is undergoing a structural shift from "lower volume, higher price": declining birth rates (approaching 900 million in 2023) form an irreversible macro backdrop. However, post-90/95 millennial parents' willingness to pay for professionalism, combined with supportive policies for the three-child initiative, rising disposable income (51821 yuan in 2023), and sustained growth in healthcare spending, are driving the industry's transition from "demographic dividend-driven" to "driven by average order value, service categories, and specialization."

Trend 1: Deep penetration of digital applications

The 14th Five-Year Plan explicitly promotes the inclusive application of digital services in healthcare and other sectors. Three key directions for digitalization in maternal and child care:

  • Fine-grained management:Precise allocation of resources such as equipment, pharmaceuticals and consumables, finance, and human resources.

  • Optimize the clinical workflow:Maternal-centric, integrated online-offline experience with streamlined workflows

  • Empower hospitals to extend their service capabilities:Integrate home daily health metrics, monitoring data, and medication records with hospital systems to deliver personalized, precise care.

Trend 2: Integrated maternity care services

Service products extend to the pre-conception phase (preparing for pregnancy → assisted reproduction), while service cycles expand across both ends of the reproductive journey (pregnancy → postpartum confinement → recovery → long-term health management). Single-point providers will be integrated into an end-to-end management platform.

Trend 3: Rise of Home-Scene Consumption

As manufacturing technology advances and mobile internet becomes ubiquitous, home-based consumption is emerging as a new direction. Its core characteristics include:

  • Convenience:1-on-1 maternal training, group classes, and home rehabilitation equipment

  • Privacy:Posture correction, body shaping, and skincare at home

  • Interactivity:Prenatal education, remote monitoring, and real-time consultation

Home scenarios will drive a new generation of integrated at-home maternity solutions combining devices, content, and services.
