Childcare
You are currently enjoying your time at home as a family. In the future, the question will arise as to how you can find the right childcare place for your child. Together with you, the staff at the Parent Visiting Service will consider which forms of childcare are suitable for your child and what steps need to be taken next. In a joint discussion, you will receive information about childcare in daycare centers, with childminders and large daycare facilities. You will learn everything you need to know about the registration process, deadlines and fees.
The i-Punkt Familie team will advise you on childcare issues, support you with the Kita Navigator and they provide information on child daycare services.
Family time
As everyday life gradually settles in and you get used to your new family situation, you may
want to get in touch with other families and discover new ways of spending your free time with your child. The Parent Visiting Service will introduce you to suitable offers in your district or throughout Düsseldorf. The Parent Visiting Service has compiled an overview of inexpensive family education offers for you. It ranges from toddler groups and family get-togethers to baby swimming and retraining to PEKiP courses and much more.
Düsseldorf also has a family navigator. It is an information portal where you can find all current offers for pregnant women and families with children and young people in Düsseldorf.
