What childcare facilities does the kihz Foundation offer children of pre-school age?
The kihz Foundation opened the kihz crèche at Platten in summer 2006 which takes children aged between three and six. Its capacity is limited to 15 places for now, although the Foundation will be applying to the cantonal authorities to have it recognized as a kindergarten. It remains to be seen whether this recognition is given because the kihz Platten crèche accepts children as young as three, not just pre-school children. In addition, there is no guarantee yet that subsidized childcare places will also be available in the medium term. The kihz crèches at Hönggerberg, Bülachhof, Wolfbach and Schönberg will be unable to provide childcare for pre-school children in the foreseeable future.
