EG Kiddy

Mainz-Kastel

Originally founded in 1996 as a parent initiative by employees of the Hessian police, our daycare center in Mainz-Kastel is still located on the police grounds. However, we are not a company-run daycare, but open to all children from their first year until they start school. And the unique location makes every drop-off, outdoor play, and pick-up an adventure for young and old alike.

Our daily routine

  • 6:45 a.m.Good Morning

    The early birds are coming! We'll play together in the early group until 8:00 am.

  • 8:00 a.m.Hello to the groups

    Quickly, quickly, everyone should be here by 8:45. The little ones will have a group breakfast, while the older children can help themselves until 9:30. Fresh fruit and vegetables are available all day for anyone who gets hungry in between.

  • 10:00 a.m.Time for our projects

    The little ones are being changed – the older ones are brushing their teeth. Time for our projects – or free play, simply gluing, painting, cutting, or perhaps going outside – the older ones are even allowed to do that on their own now.

  • 11:30-12:30 a.m.Lunch together

    Of course, with a whimsical toast before meals (often turning into a fun ceremony at home). Shhh – afterwards the little ones sleep – the grown-ups brush their teeth and play – a little more quietly.

  • 2:30 p.m.A little snack

    There will be a small refreshment for everyone – bread along with something healthy.

  • 3:00 p.m.Playing time

    Everyone is playing again – with and without caregivers – indoors or outdoors.

  • 4:15 p.m.Calling it a day

    Goodbye and see you tomorrow!
