QUESTIONS THAT COME UP A LOT

FOOD Everyone brings their own food. You can use the kitchen stove to heat up precooked food or even boil freshly on site. SLEEP The childcare room can be separated using a sliding door to reduce noise and for privacy, and the little ones can sleep on the big house-bed with blankets and pillows. There are also possibilities of pushing your stroller with the sleeping baby into the space or leaving it in the backyard just in front of our big window door. SICK You can cancel your appointment up until 24 hours before. For cancellations on shorter notice we will try to give your appointment to another parent, which means that you can reschedule without any costs. If we cannot find anyone to take over your session, we will share the costs with you and reimburse 50% of the price for that day with your next booking. NUMBER OF CHILDREN One childminder cares for a maximum of 3 children and there will be a maximum of 6 children with 2 childminders in childcare per session. PACKAGE SHARE Parents, grandparents, babysitters and friends can share one package as long as it is the same child they bring. CHILD OLDER THAN 1.5 YEARS From experience we know that up until the age of 2 years the care situation works well. We love kids of all ages however our main aim is to create a relaxed atmosphere for very young children. If your child is older than 1.5 years, we will be happy to give it a try, but we ask for your understanding if we feel that we cannot maintain the protected and cozy atmosphere that we want to guarantee for the very little ones. JUGENDAMT Recently the Jugendamt has granted to reimburse alternative childcare costs given a number of condition. They have also reimbursed costs of using the box. Please get in touch and we will be happy to pass on all the info we can provide and share experience. HOW OFTEN CAN I COME? Every child is different but the learning from the past is that most children cope best in sessions of 3 hours. One session of 3 hours per day should be perfect. Some children will also be able to handle several visits of 6 hours per week. However, we highly discourage to do full days and certainly not full days on a regular basis. The kids are too young to handle this kind of intensity. WHAT DO I DO IF MY CHILD DOES NOT WANT TO STAY IN CHILDCARE? You should definitely book a trial to see how the situation at the box works for you and your little one. This will surely not give you a guarantee for the future but a good estimation. Certainly there are tons of reasons for which childcare may not work for your child on a given day. Sadly we cannot reimburse such a session and we ask you for your understanding but we surely will do our best to make it work. Sometimes parents stay in the kids’ room and work from there to reassure their child of their presence. GUESTS You can bring guests at all times. Please make the booking via our booking system. A guest booking is valid for one adult without a baby. BABY SLEEPS AND SESSION IS OVER We invite you to stay at the box and continue to work so you can have a little extra productive time. BABY IS HUNGRY AND SESSION IS OVER We invite you to use our kitchen to feed your baby even when the session is over and if it is not yet 6pm. Always bearing in mind that the parents in the next session will pick up their work so we ask you to be calm.
