Vacation care for children of employees of the University Hospital of Cologne

Employees of the University Hospital Cologne and the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Cologne have the opportunity to register their children for vacation care weeks during the Easter and autumn vacations.  With the "ZAK Zirkus- und Artistikzentrum Köln" ("Circus and Artistic Center Cologne") and the association "Querwaldein e. V." ("Crossforest"), educationally qualified institutions have been won for the implementation of the vacation care measure.

Further information will be available here shortly!

 

 

Childcare services at the university

Daycare center of the University of Cologne Paramecium

The University of Cologne runs the university's own children's home in Weyertal.

Since fall 2011, around 80 children from 4 months to school age have been looked after here by academics, staff and students.

All places are offered as full-day places.

More information on the educational concept and the history of the project can be found on the website of the children's home.

Back-up childcare

The back-up care is for children of university members with short-term childcare bottlenecks (exams, services, etc.) and takes place on campus, in the rooms of the Kinderhaus.

 

Bookings and cancelations are flexible up to 24 hours before the childcare date.

Childcare is available from 2-8 hours per day, but for a maximum of 15 hours per week.

Opening hours: Monday-Thursday 8:00-19:00 hours

Contact person: Frederike Öhmann, 0221 / 470 2147, f.oehmannSpamProtectionverw.uni-koeln.de

We offer confidential and personal advice (also in English) to academic and non-academic members of the university.

Dual Career & Family Support is networked with regional and national institutions and organizations that are committed to a family-friendly working environment. It represents the University of Cologne in the corporate network Erfolgsfaktor Familie ("Success factor family"), in the Hochschulnetzwerk für Familie NRW (HNF) as well as in the Kölner Bündnis für Familien ("Cologne Alliance for Families") and is involved in the AG Studieren mit Kind ("WG Studying with a child") (University of Cologne).
