Expectant mothers and young families receive a wide range of support in Germany. Also, of course, in the financial sector.

The "maternity leave" or better "Maternity benifit" is a financial support before and immediately after birth. The maternity leave is for their work to relieve the expectant mothers. If necessary, pregnant women are even released. This is possible through the maternity protection without losing money.

Child support is the best known form of financial assistance. Families, single mothers and fathers can get this support. The State pays the money regardless of any income. In Germany, by this money, the education and training of children should be support.

If the normal child support is not enough you can apply for a child supplement. Both can be apply for at the employment agency. Details of special cases and the country education allowance available in Saxony can also be found there.

There are also funds to compensate for changes in the conditions of the child's life. You can request them if you are not able to cushion them by yourself. These include, among other things, removals or the education of the child
