Our daycare centre offers space for up to 60 children aged eight weeks to school age. We have 24 places in the toddler area for children under the age of 3 and 36 places in the elementary area for children aged 3 and over.
Situated in a traffic-calmed area, our centre has its own playground, which offers the children numerous opportunities for play, exercise and discovery. The daycare centre is easily accessible by public transport: S-Bahn lines S3, S5, S7, S9, S45, Tiergarten stop.

"Small House"

At the "Small House", our room concept creates a friendly and relaxed atmosphere and provides room for 24 kids from 8 weeks to approximately 2,5 years.
Open space for experimental, self-determined learning – the children will find stimulating corners for their first steps into independence as well as sheltered, accessible spaces that provide them with security and freedom. At the “Small House” we have an art studio next to the sheltered play areas.

Individual, integral support – we accompany and support each individual child in their development, based on their needs, tendencies, and developmental necessities. For that reason, we value the close and open collaboration with the parents and other attachment figures from the start.
We prepare the transition into the open space of the “Big House” together with the parents. It happens between 2.5 and three years, always depending on the individual developmental stage of the child.

"Big House"

In the Big House, approximately 36 children between the ages of 2.5 years up to school entry spend common play and learning time.
Creating explorative spaces – The open room design enables the children to play and learn independently. Apart from specifically designed areas and quiet spaces for retreating, there is a large art studio which invites to explore, experiment and being creative.

Outdoor Space

Our outdoor area is a favourite place for the children. It is quiet and secluded from the road and offers a natural environment with trees, hedges, shrubs and hill-like elements, slides and tubes that encourage movement and play. A stage is available to the children for role play and in the summer months the water pump is a particular highlight.

Trips

With our regular activities, such as walks in the zoo and the surrounding area as well as the use of Berlin's cultural offerings, we continuously expand our children's scope of experience. The forest days from March to October are particularly important to us, as they allow the children to experience nature in a variety of ways.

Festivals and Celebrations

In the course of a day care year, we have many opportunities to celebrate. Feasts are important to us because they offer us a break in our everyday routines, are fun and leave us with beautiful memories. For our preschool children there is an annual children's festival in the "Freiraum" - the event hall of the culture department of studierendenWERK.

Our summer party is one of the highlights of the day care year. Every year, many families take part in the preparations. With music and theatre, the festival gives parents the opportunity to exchange ideas in our garden during the cosy get-together.

Since September 2019, this daycare center is a partner of TUKI (German Theater & Kita). TUKI is a partnership program between daycare centers and theatres, which has set itself the task of strengthening early childhood cultural education in Berlin in the long term.
