Becoming a childminder
The tasks of childminders are responsible, exciting and varied.
Childminders work independently and usually in their own household. This makes it easy to combine family and professional requirements.
The activity requires a permit. Prerequisites are personal suitability, suitability of the premises of the day care center and good preparation for the job through successful completion of a qualification course (QHB). A maximum of five children may be cared for.
Prospective childminders must have the following skills:
- Enjoy everyday life with children,
- respect children in their personality, recognize their needs and give them impulses for their development,
- An interest in gaining qualifications and undergoing continuous further training,
- Good knowledge of German,
- reliability and a willingness to communicate and cooperate.
In Wiesbaden, there are different forms and services of child day care: A special model of child day care in Wiesbaden is the "Kinderbrücke". The concept includes special professional support, networking and a substitution system. In addition to the classic form (care in your own home), there is also the option of working as a day carer in other suitable rooms ("children's apartment").
