Children are admitted starting at 8 months of age if a corresponding official decision has been issued by the Cottbus Youth Welfare Office. Children without such a decision are admitted once they reach their first birthday.

The daycare center is open not only to students and employees of BTU, but to all children who are registered as residents of Cottbus.

We support children’s development through a holistic approach to education, upbringing, care, and support. We take into account their diverse life circumstances, cultural backgrounds, and worldviews.

The adjustment period is tailored to each child and conducted gently to help the child build trust and feel secure. It takes place in close collaboration with the parents and is guided by the child’s pace and needs.

The day care center is open from Monday to Friday from 07:00 to 17:00. The children must be brought by 09:00 a.m. There is a general legal right to care for up to 6 hours per day. With a legal notice from the youth welfare office, care time of up to 10 hours per day can be agreed.

The day care center is closed for 2 weeks during the summer holidays and between Christmas and New Year’s Eve. In addition, there are 2-3 closing days per year for internal training courses / events. The parents will be informed of the exact dates in good time.

The parental contribution is determined on the basis of the parents’ net income in the previous calendar year, the age of the child, the amount of care provided and the number of children living in the household. The fee is checked annually for the new daycare year.

Meal options include a vitamin break, beverages, lunch, and an afternoon snack. The daycare center offers a balanced, child-friendly, and predominantly organic diet featuring fresh meals, beverages, and snacks. DGE guidelines, allergies, and vegetarian diets are taken into account.

The personal contribution to lunch (50 € per month and child) is charged as a lump sum. This amount is billed for ten months of the year. This means that you have to pay €41.67 per month.

The place can be canceled with a notice period of 4 weeks to the end of the month. A termination of the contract due to school entry does not require a separate notice.

A special right of termination of 2 weeks applies for the first month of the contract.

The daycare committee is made up of representatives appointed by the provider and elected by the employees and parents. It meets regularly to discuss upcoming issues.

For better and faster communication with the parents of the children admitted to us, the nursery has an info app, which is provided free of charge.

The aim of the app is a simple and quick information transfer to the parents. There is a news and calendar function, which informs about current events, celebrations, parents’ evenings, etc. in our daycare center.

Flyers or other documents are also forwarded to parents as PDF files via the app.

An absence module allows you to sign out your children with just one click. Thus, we are spared the telephone service in the morning.

In addition, the app can be set to different languages. The app translates messages sent for parents directly into their heart language.

And of course the app is data protection compliant according to DGSVO. Data transmission between the individual components takes place according to the latest encryption standards.
