The Catholic daycare center Haus Marienfried is located at Helmholtzstraße 67 in the Wiesbaden district of Dotzheim-Kohlheck.
What parents can expect that’s special at this daycare center:
"Children—just like poets, musicians, and scientists—are eager explorers and creators. They possess the art of exploration and are highly receptive to the joy that wonder brings. Our task is to help children engage with the world, drawing on all their abilities, strengths, and forms of expression.” Loris Malaguzzi The Haus Marienfried daycare center has been in operation since 1964 and is a Catholic institution. The daycare center, which has two groups, is located near the forest. The children’s interest in the forest as a living environment is sparked by its diversity of living creatures, growth, and processes of change. The Haus Marienfried Daycare Center is a partner facility of the “Kleine Füchse” program run by the Raule Foundation. Thanks to additional training as a specialist in gifted education, each child receives individualized support tailored to their talents. Through close collaboration with the Kohlheckschule elementary school, there is regular communication, and the kindergarten children use the school gym once a week. Staff with additional training in recreation and recreational sports thus provide professional guidance for the children’s physical education. The “Zauberkiste” language screening program is administered by trained staff, followed by the development of a tailored language support program. In the final year before starting school, children with language difficulties or vocabulary gaps due to bilingualism have the opportunity to attend the daily school readiness course. Daily singing and music-making are accompanied by the teacher playing the guitar. The educational principles are child-centered. In weekly group meetings, the children themselves determine the schedule for their week. In the daily children’s meetings, songs are sung, books are read, and rhymes are recited.
