I have been working in the childcare sector for 15 years. In addition to training as a childcare specialist, I also completed the Higher Technical School for Childhood Pedagogy. Since 2025, I have been managing the wäsmeliwald daycare center together with Tanja, placing great emphasis on high professionalism in childcare. As a vocational training supervisor, I also guide apprentices on their path to becoming qualified professionals.

An environment
where every child
thrives

Our daycare center wäsmeliwald is located in the Wesemlin-Dreilinden district of Lucerne and is easily accessible by car as well as by public transport. We are also situated right next to a forest, which we use for weekly forest days. In the forest, children can explore, observe, and discover using all their senses.

Our warm and welcoming team gives children plenty of time to explore their environment holistically and with all their senses, following their own interests. Free play is highly valued here, and we place great importance on fostering age-appropriate independence.

  • Creative atelier
  • Spacious garden and playground
  • Childcare vouchers
  • Daycare Plus for children with special needs
