The childcare situation for the local children was already difficult before the floods. In the village there is no kindergarten. Some children are cared for by a childminder, but the demand for childcare places cannot be met by the system.

In addition, the two kindergartens in two neighbouring villages were destroyed in the floods, so the situation became even more difficult.

A childminder and another mother from the village improvised and looked after up to 25 children in the garage of a house. Now they can use the playground container for this purpose.

The container was financed by donations from the fundraiser, Aktion Deutschland Hilft. The contact to the community came about through the cooperation with Action Medeor. Our goal is that the children at the container are also looked after by educational specialists. Therefore we are looking for a Waldorf teacher who would like to get involved there.

In this way, perhaps the foundations for consistent kindergarten care in the village have been laid.
