The municipal daycare center at the Gutspark offers a total of 80 childcare places in 2 crèche and 2 kindergarten groups. With its focus on "nature and creativity", the facility blends in wonderfully with the beautiful estate park and invites the children and staff to spend time in the beautiful outdoor area every day. As we have only recently been able to appoint a new daycare manager, we are looking for a deputy who can imagine working with the team to further develop the high educational standards of the facility. Like all our municipal daycare centers, we also work according to the Early Excellence concept at the Kita am Gutspark.
