KiTa profile
What parents can expect from this daycare center:
Our daycare center was opened in 1987 and is located in a traffic-calmed area on the outskirts of Mainz-Kostheim. A total of 144 children are cared for here in 2 crèche, 4 elementary and 2 after-school groups. The Krautgärten elementary school, which is attended by the majority of our after-school children, is located in the immediate vicinity. The children receive freshly prepared meals every day based on a healthy and balanced diet. The daycare center's nutritional concept complies with the quality standard of the German Nutrition Society (DGE) and has been awarded FIT-KID certification. The educational concept is based on the fundamental ideas of Montessori and Freinet pedagogy. We accompany and support the children in their development and offer them a wide range of activities. The group rooms are equipped with additional play areas; workshops (studio, wood workshop), gym and children's kitchen also offer space for active play. It is important to us that the children gain a variety of experiences through independent work and thus achieve independence. Through the mixed-age groups, the involvement of the children in the completion of everyday tasks and through jointly planned projects, the children experience social and democratic cooperation based on mutual respect and acceptance. In the elementary groups, children are also looked after as part of integration measures. The joy of reading and talking is encouraged through reading corners and a children's library. The children are introduced to computer work and practise using games, educational software, painting and writing programs. A comprehensive range of physical activities supports the children's physical and mental development. The children experience a wealth of nature in the outdoor area, on forest days, excursions into the surrounding area and visits to the children's farm.
