Sick children feel best at home; that’s where they can rest in peace and recover. This also allows us to help protect the health of other children as well as that of our staff.
Is your child sick, but you have to work? profawo has emergency nannies who can come to your home to care for your sick child. You can find more information here.

Yes, in exceptional cases, it is possible to swap days at no charge, provided that this is compatible with the daycare center's schedule and availability.

Whether for a one-time or unexpected need, we offer families the option to book additional days (backup care) when the daycare’s schedule allows.

At our daycare center, we place great importance on healthy, child-friendly meals. We make sure to offer balanced, seasonal, and varied meals. For our youngest children, we also provide baby food purees. Meals are included in the daycare fee.

At first, the child attends the daycare center accompanied by his or her parents or a familiar adult. This allows the child to explore his or her new environment and get to know the caregivers at a comfortable pace. In the next phase, the length of the adjustment period is gradually extended, and the primary caregiver gradually steps back until the child has established a trusting relationship with the teachers and feels comfortable with the daily routine at the daycare center. This process generally takes about two weeks.

At our center, communication with parents is meant to be personal, transparent, and straightforward. We prioritize daily exchanges with the teaching staff to share the experiences your child is having. In addition, you’ll receive our monthly newsletter, which gives you a glimpse into life at the daycare, the topics we’re covering, and upcoming activities. This way, you’re always well-informed.

The safety and well-being of the children are our top priority. We have clear emergency procedures in place for various situations. Our staff undergoes first aid training every two years. Fire evacuation drills are also conducted at the daycare center. Additionally, we follow clear hygiene guidelines and consistently ensure that all rules are adhered to.

As a non-profit organization, we are financially independent and invest the funds we generate specifically in the quality of our care. This includes, in particular, the professional development of our staff, investments in the daycare center, and the continuous improvement of our services. In this way, we ensure that the funds entrusted to us directly benefit the children, families, and our team.

Our daycare center is part of profawo, a nonprofit association active throughout Switzerland. profawo is committed to helping people balance family and work life and promotes family-friendly solutions for everyday life.
