Transparent and locally adapted pricing policy

Childcare fees depend on the type of care offered, the weekly care days, the child’s age, and any additional services such as meals or special programmes. Many facilities offer flexible models to accommodate different family needs.

In the canton of Schwyz, families can reduce their childcare costs through childcare vouchers (kiBon). These vouchers are applied for through the municipality of residence and are based on the parents’ income and employment level. The amount of support varies depending on the municipality and the level of care. The aim of the vouchers is to ensure access to affordable, high-quality childcare. Parents can choose between providers, while the funding follows the child rather than the institution.
