Meet our Management
Since 2020, apart from a short break, I have been working at Dachspatzen. I started in the care of the baby group and as deputy daycare center manager before taking over the management of the daycare center in January 2022. In 2023, I successfully completed my training as a team leader in social and socio-medical institutions. During my one-year break, I gained valuable experience as a consultant at Familizy, which I can now apply to my work at Dachspatzen.
A child is like a book from which we can read and into which we can write.

An environment
where every child
thrives
Our daycare center dachspatzen is located in the heart of District 5 in Zurich West. The modern facilities are designed to be child-friendly, and the surrounding area offers many opportunities for excursions. The daycare center is easily accessible by public transport: from Zurich main station, it takes about eight minutes by tram lines 13 or 17, and from Hardbrücke station about five minutes.
Our caring team creates a nurturing environment for your child in age-based groups. In a family-like atmosphere, we support each child’s individual development. A spacious movement room and art studio provide space for self-expression, while a variety of outdoor activities promote movement, exploration, and playful learning throughout the day.
