Register your child with a childminder

Service Description

Child day care includes the care and support of your child in a child day care facility (crèche, kindergarten, after-school care) or a child day care center.

The day care facilities have the following tasks:

  • They promote the child's development into a self-determined, independent and socially competent personality.
  • They support and supplement upbringing and education in the family.
  • They help parents to better reconcile work, child rearing and family care.

The support mandate encompasses the upbringing, education and care of the child. It relates to the child's social, emotional, physical and mental development. It includes the teaching of guiding values and rules.

The support should be based on the following characteristics of the children:

  • Age
  • level of development
  • Linguistic and other abilities
  • life situation
  • interests and needs
  • Ethnic origin

The placement of a childcare place in a child daycare facility takes place in cooperation with the responsible local youth welfare organization.

Process flow

Parents should contact the responsible office in good time to find out whether there are any childcare places available.

Personal contact or a personal meeting between you and the childminder is useful and usually possible. Many childminders offer to get to know their childminder before you register.

After registration, the available places are allocated according to the local rules.

Requirements

A child who is 1 year old or older is entitled to early childhood support in a daycare facility or in a daycare center until their 3rd birthday.

If both parents are unable to look after their child themselves, children under the age of 1 may already be entitled to early childhood support. This is the case, for example, if both parents are working.

From the 3rd birthday until the child starts school, the child is entitled to support in a day care center.

What are the fees?

The amount of your costs depends on your income and the amount of childcare you need.
