Meet our Management
Working with children has always inspired me. After completing my training, I was able to gain various experiences in the childcare sector in 2017 as a team leader and later as deputy operations manager. During this time, I completed leadership training. Afterwards, I had the opportunity to participate in co-managing the opening of a new daycare center. In November 2023, I joyfully took over the management of the Forsthaus daycare center.
Sometimes we need to see the world through the eyes of our children to realize that the world is full of wonders and adventures.
