An Apprenticeship as a Childcare Specialist

An Apprenticeship as a Childcare Specialist

The pop e poppa family service group is a Switzerland-wide network of childcare facilities. pop e poppa is the largest Swiss network in childcare and is an important part of supplementary family care from Geneva to Schaffhausen with daycares, playgroups, and day nurseries.

Child and family are at the center of our considerations and actions, which is why we accompany, care for, and promote each child individually and consider parental work an important part of everyday life.

In our pop e poppa Oberfeld daycare, we care for children daily in two baby groups and three mixed-age groups, from 3 months old until kindergarten entry. The offer includes 70 places. The daycare is located in a former shooting house with a large garden and forecourt and is easily accessible by public transport. Our bright and spacious rooms offer plenty of space and design possibilities.

As part of our training offer, we offer from August 1, 2026:
