In the early childhood phase are child day care, crèches and kindergartens, an important support especially for working people is provided

Children up to the age of three are cared for in the nursery. Children between the ages of three and six can be accommodated in day-care centres or kindergartens. Basically, there should be a crèche or kindergarten place available for every child from the age of 1. Since 1 August 2013 there has been an unconditional legal entitlement to a childcare place for children from the age of one, § 24 SGB VIII (Social Code Book VIII). Nevertheless, you should take care of a childcare place for your child at an early stage.

There are municipal, church and private-sector childcare facilities. In addition to pedagogy and services, the costs also vary. Find out for yourself what suits you and your child best. A childcare place close to your everyday environment or even close to your workplace would be ideal.

Questions and answers

When does the child have to stay at home if he or she is ill?



  • In the case of infectious diseases, children are not allowed to attend kindergarten under any circumstances.
  • Otherwise the decision lies with the parents.
  • In case of illness of the staff, the facility closes if childcare and compliance with the legal care personnel key can no longer be guaranteed or complied with.

When is the right time for a childcare facility?



Ideally, the child should be at least one year old when receiving outside care. However, it is not only age that determines when the time is right. The most important thing is that the child is healthy and can feel safe at the time of entry.
