Childcare Facilities

Greifswald has about 40 facilities, nurseries, after-school clubs and day care centres which offer childcare for children from the ages of 0 to 10 years. If you would like childcare for your child, please register via the Vorpommern-Greifswald District “Tolina” Kitaplaner (childcare scheduler). (German website)

Childcare in the University and Hanseatic City of Greifswald is an important building block for family-friendly and social development. By offering various forms of childcare tailored to people’s needs, municipal and independent providers ensure that parents can combine work and family life in the best possible way. In these facilities, the children are cared for and supported in their everyday lives. Good quality education and care in the early years of life leave a lasting impression on little ones. For this reason it’s particularly important to provide the same educational opportunities for all children by offering diverse childcare opportunities. The biggest provider is the city’s in-house “Hanse-Kinder” operation. (German website)
