child care

Private Kindergartens If you opt to place your child in a private kindergarten, it is best to personally visit the kindergarten facility and speak directly with the managing director. You can either register at the kindergarten directly or through the kindergarten’s support organization. Company Kindergartens Company kindergartens are located either on company property or very close by and available to company employees. 0 3 I n - H o m e Da y Ca r e In-home child care providers open their home to care for other families’ children. These child care providers can give your child more individual attention as well as offer more flexible hours than crèches, kindergartens or children’s groups. In-home child care providers offer a child a family environment. They cook, entertain children and provide toys. In-home child care providers require a state-issued permit and must be certified. In most Austrian provinces, they are required to prove some degree of pedagogic education and must attend further education courses.
