On Wednesday, May 14, all interested parties are cordially invited to attend the theme evening: "Arrive. Feel good. Grow. Settling in in a family atmosphere in child daycare" online. The event, offered by Familiäre Tagesbetreuung e.V., will take place from 6 pm. You can register at https://www.familiaere-tagesbetreuung-aachen.de/termine-service/veranstaltung-eingewoehnung-in-die-kindertagespflege/.

How does a successful start to daycare work? What does a gentle, participatory acclimatization mean - and why is it so important for children? On this themed evening, parents of children under the age of three in the city of Aachen in particular are invited to get to know child day care as an independent, child-friendly and family-oriented form of care. Parents will gain an insight into the gentle settling-in process and learn how bonding, trust and co-determination are practiced right from the start.

Speaker: Sabrina Porras (Consultant Family Day Care e.V.)
