Childcare during events at the University and Universitätsklinikum Erlangen
Conference organizers can liaise with the Family Service to arrange childcare for the children of students, employees and guests from outside the University during their conferences, symposia and comparable events at FAU or Uniklinikum Erlangen.
The childcare program is decided individually in consultation with the childminders and tailored according to the number and age of children to be looked after. We therefore recommend informing us about the conference and the number of children to be cared for as soon as possible.
Childcare is provided by students from FAU who are known personally to the Family Service and who have experience in caring for children.
The conference organizer is responsible for providing rooms for childcare. We are happy to assist in finding a suitable room.
If several children require childcare, we would recommend borrowing a KidsBox (a mobile space for children to play).
The conference organizer is responsible for covering the costs for childcare during conferences. They entail €17/hour and childminder. If the event is held within the context of a collaborative research center, the organizer is able to re-finance childcare costs using funds provided by the DFG to promote equal opportunities.
Please note: Our ability to organize suitable childminders depends greatly on how much advance warning we are given and the availability of students. It is not always possible to organize someone to take care of the children.
Registration: Send an email to the Family Service (ann-kathrin.vallee@fau.de)
Please send us the following details:
- Contact details of the person organizing the event and the invoice recipient
- Number and ages of the children requiring childcare
- Time of childcare
- Location of childcare
- Special requests/requirements concerning the childminder
We look forward to hearing from you!
