  1. Day-care Facilities for Children in Germany Structures and offers for small children

  2. Day-care for childrenlies at the intersection of the labour market, economic, family, education and children-related policies Therefore, the awareness is growing: We cannot afford to „go on like this“ any more!

  3. Demographic Facts: The load of social security benefits health care and nursing expenses Potential earners Education and training expenses

  4. Demographic Facts: The load of social security benefits health care and nursing expenses ..and 30-40% of all college graduates remain childless! Potentialearners Education and training expenses

  5. Economic Consequences: • Everyone, in particular women,is needed in the labour market. • Without day-care facilities for children that are good regarding quality as well as quantity, they can either have an alternative job or children • In addition, it has socially unacceptable consequences – either short-term or long-term. • So CARE + EDUCATION of children

  6. Education is the most profitable investment We cannot afford not to invest there: Perry-Preschool-Study reveals the price/performance ratio of 1$: 7.1$ (at the age of 27) and 1$: 17.07$ (at the age of 40) (including 12.90$ for the general public and 4.17$ for the individual.) James Heckmann (Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences 2000): Early education has the highest rate of return.

  7. Development of SocialConsensus > 2013 Legal claim for all children at the age of 1 and 2

  8. Without the state financial support, the day-care for children iseither expensive or bad! Child/Parents Day-care contract Legal claim + Parental contribution Youth welfare office Day-care Facility/Day care Funding

  9. Day-care is • diverse • flexible • Individual • or cheaper ( • (at the expense of the people?)

  10. Price controls almost everything! By paying for the day-carer: - What king of quality can be expected? (who is interested in the activity, what level of qualification, what is the design of the rooms, equipment…) • What scope and what flexibility of the offer can you buy? As for the parental contribution: • Who can afford it? • When is it worth to go to work with respect to the nursing costs? Is it desirable/allowed to admit any social differentiation regarding the price?

  11. Forms of Offers

  12. Forms of Offers Are there any Alternatives of good (better) value and effect???

  13. …e.g. professionally supported offers for parents and children!
