Introduction/specifics

Our facility is located in the Ober-Beerbach district, surrounded by woods, fields and meadows. The daycare center was opened in March 1993, it is located on the site of a former farmyard and was rebuilt in this style. It was awarded an architectural prize, the “Joseph Maria Olbricht Plaque”, for its successful architecture. We are a facility with 2 locations. In the main building there is a crèche group with 12 children aged 1-3 years and a kindergarten group with up to 25 children aged 3 years until they start school. On a plot of land a good 50 m from the daycare center, behind a bus loop in the village and next to a small stream called “Beerbach”, there is a nature children's group with up to 20 children aged 3 to school age. The opening of the nature group took place on 17. Oktober 2022.
We work according to the situation-oriented approach, i.e. through our observations of the children's daily activities, we learn what needs they have, what interests and occupies them. We pick up on these situations and implement them in our daily work. We also focus on nature education and experiencing nature in the annual cycle together with the children.
