Mission statement

We champion extra-familial childcare.

  • As a non-profit organisation, we are deeply committed to ensuring that extra-familial childcare in the City and Canton Zug is both available and affordable.

  • We are able to meet much of the demand because of our variety of care programs including centres as well as in-home childminders.


  • We automatically review our services and adapt them to meet the current requirements and needs of our clients and contracting authorities.

We take our clients seriously

  • Parents and their children are our clients. Their satisfaction is important to us. We regularly evaluate their satisfaction and make changes if and when necessary.

  • Collaboration with parents is vital for the child to flourish in the day-care situation so we make sure we are in close communication with all parents.

For tomorrow’s adults.

  • We see children as independent personalities whom we accompany on part of their life journey.


  • We have a holistic approach to the early education and upbringing of small children in which their self-development, their security, and companionship are central.


  • We find differing social and cultural backgrounds enriching and encourage integration and equal opportunities by offering day-care in Swiss-German.

We are experts.

  • We offer professional services with qualified employees.
  • We encourage task-based training and consequently have professionally and personally competent employees.

  • We greatly value exchanging ideas and active collaboration with other organisations such as professional and industrial associations, which support the same concerns and offer similar or supplementary services.

Money makes it possible.

  • We offer our services on behalf of parents and the Communities of Zug. The financial contributions or child care vouchers provided enable parents to have differing fees based upon their income.
