Does anyone have ideas or know the German name of programs that offer very part-time child care -- 5 to 10 hours a week? Basically I am accustomed to "Mothers/Parents Day Out" programs that offer care for young ones (1 year plus) in a group setting with a structured day. Usually offered two days a week for a half day each, often organized through churches or universities. I realize I won't find anything exactly the same, but if you have any ideas of something similar...even if it is all German...I would be VERY grateful for any input. We're not having much luck on the Tagesmutter route, and I would prefer a little more structure, socialization and activities than in-home care provides.
If it is of any difference, we are located in the city proper, near Rosenheimerplatz. We are looking for a spot for a one-year-old.
