Opening Hours

Finally! More Flexibility for Parents!

When it comes to childcare, parents are often faced with the same dilemma: the hours of their child care centres do not match their needs. Either it starts too early in the morning or it closes too early in the evening. What is a parent supposed to do when the demands of professional life clashes with your child’s day care hours and you have no family members to help you out in Zurich?

Opening Hours

At Kita Regenbogen, our day care hours are from 7.45am to 6.30pm, Monday to Friday.

We understand that things can come up unexpectedly and are here to help you and your child. Therefore, we also offer extended care hours on an as-needed basis. Your child can be dropped off at our day care centre as early as 7am and be picked up as late as 8.30pm.

We accept last-minute requests for extensive day care hours, provided that they are made by 4pm. Please contact the child’s group leader directly to arrange extended hours of childcare.
