Personalized & Family-Oriented Care: In two mixed-age groups (max. 12 children), we care for children as young as 3 months with passion, dedication, and educational expertise.
Plenty of Space for Explorers: Spacious, newly redesigned, and bright rooms, as well as a large garden, offer plenty of space both indoors and outdoors for playing, moving around, and learning.
Regular Forest Adventures: During the summer months, we go on weekly full-day excursions to the forest—including cooking over an open fire and taking a nap under the trees.
Healthy, Regional Cuisine: Our in-house chef prepares fresh meals on-site every day, using primarily regional products from nearby village stores.
The Perfect Balance Between Family and Career: Our excellent accessibility by public transportation and car makes us the perfect solution for parents who live in Seeland or work in the region.

What do I do if my child is sick?
However, as long as the child can participate in the program at the daycare center, they are very welcome.
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.
Is your child sick and you have to work? profawo has emergency nannies who can come to your sick child's home and care for them.
-
Can I swap days?
Yes, it is possible to exchange days within the same week free of charge, provided it is organizationally feasible at the daycare center.
-
Can I book additional days?
We are happy to offer you the option of booking additional childcare days. This is possible for single days or multiple days, provided there are still spaces available in our daycare center. You can easily submit your request via the parent app.
-
How is the provision of meals arranged in the daycare center?
In our daycare center, we place great importance on healthy and child-friendly nutrition. Our in-house cook prepares the meals fresh every day, ensuring balanced, seasonal, and varied dishes. We also offer free baby food for our youngest children.
-
How does the settling-in process work?
We use the Berlin model for settling-in, meaning that initially the child visits the daycare center accompanied by a familiar caregiver. This allows the child to become familiar with the new environment and the caregivers in a relaxed setting. In the next step, the settling-in period is gradually extended, and the caregiver slowly withdraws until the child has developed a secure relationship with the caregivers and feels comfortable in the daily routine of the daycare center.
-
What does a typical day look like?
Our daily routine is clearly structured and carefully planned. Fixed rituals such as the shared greeting ritual, meals, and midday rest provide the children with orientation and security.
