Register your child with the Caritas Forest Kindergarten at the University of Passau
The Caritas Forest Kindergarten in Ingling, close to the University of Passau, is due to open in September 2024.
The forest kindergarten is a project of the University Executive in cooperation with the Caritas Association for the Diocese of Passau.
The realisation of this nature-educational childcare facility is an important building block for improving the work–life and study–life balance of our university members.
There will be 20 childcare places for children from the age of 3 until they start school. Children of university members will be given priority, and any remaining places will be allocated to children of non-university members.
The regular opening hours will be Monday to Friday from 7:30 to 14:00.
To make an enquiry or reserve a place for your child, please email us the following details at familienservice@uni-passau.de:
- The full names of both parents (given and family names)

The book was awarded the NDR Non-Fiction Prize 2023.

Cures for parents and carers: start planning about a year in advance
If you have an increased risk of certain illnesses in connection with family stress or are already ill, you are legally entitled to inpatient preventive and rehabilitation measures.
Due to the increased need for mother-child and father-child cures following the coronavirus pandemic, it is currently advisable to start planning a cure about a year in advance.
Mother-child cures and father-child cures are a compulsory benefit provided by statutory health insurance. Such a cure usually lasts three weeks and should help you to cope better with everyday life and look to the future with confidence. If you are in need of a cure, your doctor can prescribe a cure for you, which you must then apply for from your health insurance company.
The Mothers' Convalescence Organisation supports mothers, fathers and family carers with comprehensive health services at over 70 facilities throughout Germany. The non-profit clinics recognised by the Müttergenesungswerk offer cures for mothers and fathers as well as for carers. There are mother's cures (without children), mother-child cures and father-child cures or cures especially for carers. On the website of the Müttergenesungswerk you will find, among other things, a search engine for counselling centres in your area.
The Mutter-Kind-Hilfswerk e. V. also offers an overview of the necessary steps and free (telephone) counselling.
You can also search for and compare suitable treatment and rehabilitation clinics on Rehaprotal Qualitätskliniken.
Further information on mother and father-child cures can usually also be found on the website of your health insurance provider.
