What do priorities mean?

What does the "Priority" field in the childcare request mean?
If you request childcare places from several childcare providers in parallel, you can specify priorities. Specifying priority "1" means that this care provider is your favorite.

Important to know:
1. each municipality decides individually whether priorities must or can be assigned and whether these have a direct impact on the award process.
2. each municipality decides individually whether priorities can be changed again subsequently.

Note: Emails from the Daycares

We would like to inform you that the LITTLE BIRD IT team has rolled out a correction regarding missing messages in week 20 and 21.

This correction run may result in notifications being sent that relate to transactions that took place a long time ago (in some cases 2020, e.g. confirmation of a new prereservation). The background to this is that the system checks all processes again for correct message dispatch and makes up for this if necessary. However, these are only notifications - the respective care has usually already been processed.

You can find an overview of the status of your requests in your account under "Child care".
