Subsidised places (EBV)
The LOKI children's house has a limited number of subsidised places. Parents residing in Dietikon, have the possibility to apply for subsidies (EBV) at the city of Dietikon.
In order to calculate the monthly parental fee, parents must contact the Early Childhood Centre at Bremgartnerstrasse 22, Dietikon with the necessary documents (see "Composition of income"). A test form will then be created on which the monthly rate can be seen.
The city of Dietikon calculates with following care percentages:
- Full-day care: 100%
- Half-day care morning with lunch: 70%
- Half-Day Care Afternoon: 50%
The monthly rate is calculated by the city as follows: Subsidised care rate x number of days per week x 4.2.
At https://kitarechner.ch/Dietikon/ the parental fee per month can be determined by the parents themselves.
More detailed information on subsidies can be found at:
www.schule-dietikon.ch/de/betreuung/ausserschulische/kinderkrippen
In case of additional care, the regular price of CHF 110 will be charged.
Payments arrangement
The monthly price is calculated from: Care rate x number of days per week x 4.
In the monthly price, the company holidays and public holidays are already deducted, as only 48 out of 52 weeks have to be paid in the year.
The monthly price is payable in advance on the 1st of each month. Any additional days of care will be charged in arrears.
Reservation of a childcare place
Free childcare places can be reserved. If these are reserved more than two months in advance, the Kinderhaus will charge a reservation fee of CHF 200. This amount is non-refundable.
If a childcare place is reserved for another child, no reservation fee has to be paid.
Paying a deposit
Parents pay a deposit of one month's fees on admission, which is refunded on termination of the childcare relationship, provided there are no outstanding debts.
For families with more than one child, a deposit must be paid for each child.
Admission fee
A one-time admission fee of CHF 100 is paid in cash upon the child's admission to cover administrative expenses and familiarisation.
For families with more than one child, an admission fee must be paid for each child.
Sibling discount
For each additional child cared for at Kinderhaus LOKI, parents receive a 10% discount on the monthly fee of the older child (except for subsidised places).
Care costs in case of absence
The costs for the agreed care times will also be charged if the child is absent (illness, holidays).
In case of longer absence (from 1 month), parents receive 50% discount on the monthly price.
Holidays as well as vacation days cannot be compensated.
Reporting changes
Please notify us of any changes in your place of residence or employment, as well as any changes in your income. Anyone who does not provide Kinderhaus with this information, or provides false information, risks losing the childcare place.
