Sick children are most comfortable at home, where they can recover and get well in peace. At the same time, this helps protect the health of the other children and our team. However, as long as the child can participate in the program at the daycare center, they are very welcome.

Is your child sick and you have to work? profawo has emergency nannies who can come to your home and care for your sick child. You can find more information here.

Yes, it is possible to swap days within the same week free of charge, provided that this is logistically feasible for the daycare center.

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, we place great importance on healthy, child-friendly nutrition. We make sure to offer balanced, seasonal, and varied meals. For our youngest children, we also provide free baby food.

We follow the Berlin model, which means that at first, the child attends the daycare center accompanied by a familiar caregiver. This allows the child to explore their new environment and get to know the teachers at their own pace. In the second phase, the duration of the adjustment period is gradually extended, and the caregiver gradually steps back until the child has established a trusting relationship with the educators and feels comfortable with the daily routine at the daycare. 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.
