Register childcare
Both family-based and institutional forms of childcare are available for your child. From the age of one, children are legally entitled to a place in a childcare facility. These include crèches, kindergartens, after-school care and day care centers.
Childcare places are allocated via the respective facilities or via municipal procedures. Parental contributions are payable for the use of childcare. If you have a low income, the responsible youth welfare office may cover the costs. The costs incurred vary from municipality to municipality and are based on the respective municipal statutes. Further information on the specific costs can be found when selecting the respective childcare facility.
Not all towns and municipalities have their own childcare facilities. In these cases, however, denominational or privately run childcare facilities are often available. You can obtain information about the relevant services from the contact point in your municipality.
Registration is usually made directly with the facilities or via the responsible municipal administration. Whether an online booking or reservation service can be used for a particular location is determined by selecting the desired childcare location. In some districts and in the Regionalverband Saarbrücken, it is possible to use an online service (e.g. "Kita-Planer").
You can view the contact point for your town or municipality and any online service offered as soon as you have selected your location.
- Child day care Admission
- Responsibility lies with the locally responsible authority
- Registration via local procedure possible if necessary
Parental contributions are payable for the use of childcare. In the case of low income, the costs can be covered by the responsible youth welfare office. If a child participates in lunch at the facility, the meal costs can be covered up to a personal contribution.
The amount of your costs depends, among other things, on the amount of parental contributions, the local facility, the type of care (kindergarten, crèche, after-school care, day care centers) and the scope of care (e.g. half-day or full-day).
You can obtain more detailed information on this from your local authority. This may differ from your place of residence if you would like to have your child looked after near your place of work.
After selecting the location where you would like to have your child looked after, you will be shown the contact details of the responsible office.
Parents should contact the responsible office in good time to find out whether there are any childcare places available.
After registration, the available places are allocated according to the local rules.
