[REC] Wholesome shows about parenting

I love wholesome shows about raising kids and being part of a family. I've watched Miss Shachiku and the Little Baby Ghost, Sweetness and Lighning, Usagi Drop, and If It's for My Daughter, I'd Even Defeat a Demon Lord. I'd love more along these lines.

Being part of a family: March comes in like a Lion

That’s it. Come back and tell is about it.

School Babysitters might scratch that itch.

If you’re ok with BL and omegaverse, Tadaima Okaeri is very good about raising small children.

💯

It came out a long time ago, so it’s easy to miss. But it’s hilarious and sweet and so easy to watch.

MusubiKazesaru2026-01-04 05:00

It's probably my favorite one and easily my favorite series from that author too. The ending is just a bit abrupt.

Also I'd like to recommend Taisou Zamurai

Buddy daddies and spy x family

oldschoolawesome2026-01-04 04:22

I'm not caught up on episodes, but in addition to some listed here I would include "Alma-chan wants to be a family!"

Worst_Throws_NA2026-01-04 04:41

Clannad

Gamera682026-01-04 04:58

"Spy x Family", 2 seasons.

DepartureOk21322026-01-04 05:27

Here is an underrated one:

Alma-chan Wants to Have a Family

The Yakuza’s Guide to Babysitting.

If you interested in an anime movie then I'll recommend: Wolf Children

Xaviorffviii2026-01-04 09:29

This 100%

MyraBannerTatlock2026-01-04 07:01

Delico's Nursery! Also it's GORGEOUS

Former-Forever78632026-01-04 07:58

Sweetness and Lightning

Asturaetus2026-01-04 10:04

So many posts and none recommended "Aishteruze Baby" yet?

Nachtwandler_FS2026-01-04 12:33

I need to finish it one day. It is,a pretty good show but I put it on hold twice already and still has not finished (

UnkleMonsta2026-01-04 10:46

Gakuen Babysitters

AmphibianPresent67132026-01-04 12:56

Miss Kubuyashi's Dragon Maid. The show has some parenting, although not from the start. +Season 1 is absolutely hilarious. Lots of fan service, so not really wholesome.

Khashishi2026-01-04 17:25

Wolf Children

Maquia

FaeQueen132026-01-04 19:43

Adventuring in Another World While Raising Kids I think I got the name wrong, but it's very similar!
