Opening hours/costs
During the summer holidays childcare is open daily from 07:00-16:30 on weekdays. If you need assistance between 7 and 8 a.m., please indicate this in the registration portal under “Notes”.
You can register your child by the week either
for full-day care for 70 €/week (for childcare between 7:00 am and 4:30 pm every day)
or for half-day care for 50 €/week (for childcare between 7:00 am and 2 pm every day).
For 15€/week, you can book a warm lunch for your child.
Please organize your child’s breakfast, snacks and drinks yourself and pack them safely in a small backback. On longer excursion days, we ask you to give your child an additional snack, as we do not go to the cafeteria on these days.
Prizes vary for users from partner institutions.
Cancellation
Please let us know as soon as possible if your child is unable to attend the childcare you have booked. If your child is ill at the time the childcare starts, we will reimburse you your fees if you show us a doctor’s certificate.
Cancellation for any other reason: Fees are reimbursed in full for any cancellation up to 7 days before the holidays start. After that, the fees will only be reimbursed if we can find someone to take your place.
