About us
Flex­ible Child­care (Flexi) is a joint project of the Univer­sity and the Stud­i­er­enden­werk. The child­care offer is intended for those who would like to have their child cared for by pedago­gical special­ists on a need-based and hourly basis. A total of twelve places are avail­able. Of these, nine places can be booked online, three emer­gency places can only be booked by telephone.

Our inform­a­tion on data protec­tion in the Flexi can be found here.

Loca­tion
The Flexi building is located in a 30 km/h speed zone in the imme­diate vicinity of the univer­sity on the “Adolf-Reich­­wein” campus and is connected to the Kita building. The large outdoor area of the day care centre with its own natural forest plot is also used by the Flexi children.

You and us

The chil­dren

…are looked after by educa­tional special­ists and are aged between 6 months and 10 years.

The team

…consists of

  • the Flexi management,
  • nursery school teachers,
  • qual­i­fied child day care workers

The admis­sion criteria

Chil­dren will be admitted according to the following priority list:

  1. chil­dren of student mothers and fathers
  2. chil­dren of employees of the Univer­sity of Siegen
  3. chil­dren of employees of the Stud­i­er­enden­werk Siegen (Student Union Siegen)
  4. chil­dren of professors
  5. chil­dren of third parties who do not belong to the above-mentioned group of persons.

 

The pedago­gical goals
include

support for

  • the child’s devel­op­ment (inde­pend­ence and personality),
  • the promo­tion of social beha­viour in a group
  • mutual respect, open­ness towards other cultures and religions.

In Flexi, the chil­dren are given the right balance between guided and free play.

In prac­tice, this means:

  • carrying out project work,
  • forest days, celeb­rating festivals.

All activ­ities are tailored to the different age struc­tures of the indi­vidual chil­dren and can be changed or extended depending on the situation.

Famil­i­ar­isa­tion /
cooper­a­tion with parents

Flexi works with parents in an open and trusting manner. This is achieved through:

  • an indi­vidu­ally designed settling-in phase with the involve­ment of the parents,
  • regular letters to parents and ques­tion­naires to analyse their needs,
  • celeb­ra­tions with chil­dren and parents,
  • a parents’ corner with inform­a­tion material.
