Sonnenhof supports children and adolescents in the internal special school and in various group offerings. The children are empowered according to their resources to lead as self-determined a life as possible. Our committed employees shape the coexistence in several residential groups for 6 – 8 children and adolescents each.
We offer plenty of space for creativity and effective co-creation.
We are a lively organization. Stagnation is not part of our vocabulary.
We are fans of an appreciative communication style and maintain an open feedback culture.
We provide you with professional, internal specialist departments and consultations.
In the support, we value individual development, active participation, and self-determination.
The UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UN CRPD) and an inclusive societal image that recognizes diversity and experiences it as an added value guide us.
We align your salary with industry-standard approaches.
You can expect 550 committed colleagues with open arms.
We follow our anthroposophical origin and stand for meeting people with their resources and development potential in their entirety. In doing so, we contribute to a contemporary understanding of anthroposophy.
Our vision: Shaping life. Because being human is more.
At Sonnenhof, we support over 300 children, adolescents, and adults with cognitive, physical, or multiple disabilities. In Arlesheim and Basel, we offer various forms of housing and meaningful, diverse daily activities. Children and adolescents with support needs attend our curative education school in Arlesheim and Basel. Two daycares in Basel make a significant contribution to the compatibility of family and work and live inclusion in a development-oriented framework with the youngest (with and without disabilities).
