Our Daycare Centres
Studying with a child? At our place, kids can explore the world! Our daycare centres are open nine hours a day and provide spaces for playing, moving, resting, eating, and napping, along with their own garden.
To ensure the best possible development for your child, we have two age groups: One for children from ten months to three years old, and the other for older kids from three years old until they start school. (In Ludwigsburg, there's a mixed-age group.)
All our daycare centres follow Baden-Württemberg's orientation plan, which focuses on early, individual, and talent-oriented development. Each center also has its own educational priorities.
The cost for daycare depends on your child's age and is discounted for students. Siblings also get a discount. We prioritize giving childcare spots to children of students, especially those with siblings already attending our childcare centres and children raised by single parents.
Note: from January 2025, all our daycare centres will be open eight hours a day from Monday to Friday (8:00 am - 4:00 pm)
Parental Fee
The fee for daycare centres depends on the age of your child and is reduced for students. August is free of charge everywhere. You can find the fees on the detailed pages of the daycare centres.
Time for settling in
The transition from home to daycare is a big step for all children. Therefore, we consciously involve parents in the familiarization process. Please allow about four to six weeks for this.
Which daycare centre?
You can find detailed information on the individual daycare centres on this website below. If you like, you can visit the daycare centre of your choice in advance. To do this, make an appointment with the head of the chosen daycare centre.
Please understand that the children of student parents whose universities are affiliated with the Studierendenwerk Stuttgart are prioritised when allocating places. If there are currently no places available, you will be placed on the waiting list.
