Principles
Our principles are based on the conviction that every child is unique and deserves individual support. We attach great importance to creating an atmosphere of trust and security in which every child can develop freely.
Socio-educational principles
In our facility, the children are strengthened and supported in their entire development and all three skills (self-competence, social competence and subject competence). They are cared for in a warm, welcoming environment and in a protected setting so that they can develop on their way to independence. To support their development, the children are offered a wide range of cognitive, creative, social, physical and playful activities. The children should discover for themselves, make their own experiences and live and experience their environment. They should grasp in order to understand. This gives all children the opportunity to orient themselves according to their current needs, wishes, interests or ideas. In this way, we support their curiosity and their natural urge to explore in different ways.
Promoting overall development
Promoting the overall development of each child is at the heart of our educational work. We offer a balanced mix of education, play and creative activities to support cognitive, emotional and social development. We pay particular attention to supporting each child according to their individual stage of development and interests in order to create a strong foundation for lifelong learning.

A sensory learning environment that enables the child to gain predominantly concrete experiences is another integral component. Children develop particularly well through their own activity.
Topic-oriented goals
