Childcare in daycare centers

Child day care is the regular care of a child by a childminder in small groups of max. 5 children.

With its family-like structures, day care is particularly suitable for the youngest children, as they can gain their first experiences with their peers in small groups.

However, day care is also a suitable form of childcare for children over the age of three, e.g. as a follow-up to daycare or school. In principle, child day care is possible up to the age of 14.

Childcare is provided in the childminder's own premises, in the parents' home or in other suitable premises. (see forms of child day care).

Each childminder determines the weekly care days and daily care times themselves and agrees these with the parents.
