## Required Documents

To register at the daycare centre, you must first create a personal user account in kita finder+. Please have the most important information about yourself and your child ready.

To provide proof of the **measles vaccination**, you must submit the following to the centre management before the start of care

* yellow child examination booklet or vaccination card **or**
* a medical certificate stating that your child is immune to measles or that your child cannot be vaccinated due to a medical contraindication **or**
* a confirmation from the previous institution that proof has already been provided

## Prerequisites

Parents must prove that their children have received the vaccinations against measles recommended by the Standing Committee on Vaccination (STIKO) before entering the day-care centre. Unvaccinated children may be excluded from attending a day care centre. Children under the age of one do not have to provide proof of immunisation. Children over the age of one must provide proof of at least one measles immunisation (or immunity against measles). From the age of two, full measles protection (two immunisations) must be proven.

## Please Note

**Please register your child by 13 March 2024 at the latest at the daycare facilities that suit you. (Deadline for the first allocation of places)**

Online enrolment is free of charge. The fees in the day care centres themselves vary depending on the day care centre.

## Processing Time

**Participation in the initial allocation:** The regular start date for childcare is 1 September each year. Please note the enrolment deadlines for the respective daycare year so that you can be considered for the regular allocation of places. Confirmation of places will be sent via your account in kita finder+ from the end of the enrolment period. If you do not accept the confirmation within ten days, your place will expire.
