KRIPPE & KINDERGARTEN

Cologne Dellbrück

Our day care centre in Cologne Dellbrück was opened in February 2016. It is located in a quiet and leafy residential area, wich is a great starting point for a variety of exploratory excursions. Our favorite destinations include the Höhenfelder Lake, the Diepeschrather Mühle mill and Dünnwald wildlife park. Our spacious outdoor area allows the children can to play, romp, climb and swing to their heart's content. Our indoor spaces are bright and inviting and are continuously adapted to the current needs of the children. Each group room has different areas for playing, physical activity and rest to enable the children to develop freely.

Educational concept

We support children to learn in a holistic manner, helping them engage with their environment to promote self-directed education. Our goal is to recognize the individual abilities and interests of each child and to promote these in a targeted manner in everyday life. That is why free play forms such an important component of our daily routine. We also place a great emphasis on participation: our daily morning circle is an opportunity to discuss the day together, and we also organize a children's conference every three months.

Our daycare centre is a certified under the German education initiative for junior scientists "Haus der kleinen Forscher". We want to promote an awareness of the importance of sustainability and the environment from an early age. That is also why we have an educational emphasis on "ESD" (Education for Sustainable Development) and "STEM" (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) topics that are playfully incorporated into our everyday nursery routine.

Our daughter started attending the Kleine Riesen daycare center when she was two years old, and we have been very satisfied right from the start. The team is extremely loving and committed. It's nice to see how well she's developing and how much she enjoys going to daycare every day. Communication with the educators is always open and appreciative and we feel that we are taken seriously as parents. 👍🏽👍🏽

Our experience with the Kleine Riesen daycare center has been consistently positive! The team is incredibly committed, warm and always strives to support the children individually. Our daughter enjoys going to daycare every morning, and we really appreciate the open communication and loving care. We feel completely in good hands and can only recommend the daycare center! 😊

Our son came to the little giants when he was 1.8 years old and was welcomed there very sensitively and lovingly! All employees approach the children in a very individual and needs-oriented manner and put a lot of effort into creating a trusting basis, which they do well. Of course, this daycare center is also struggling with waves of illness and a lack of staff - but we experience the management as extremely trying to get the best out of the situation and find good solutions. We are very happy with the little giants and are happy that we got a place here! :)

I would also like to write something positive here, as the previous negative reviews no longer do justice to the current condition of our daycare center: With the sale of the “Kleine Riesen” brand to Babilou Family last year, administration in particular has improved significantly. The workforce has also been stabilized so that there are now hardly any bottlenecks. There was also a change in management at the end of 2021 and the new management communicates excellently with the parents and really cares: they submit applications for funding, invest in materials and are constantly looking for new ways to make the program even more diverse for the little ones. As a family, we feel very well looked after at the daycare center on Hyazinthenweg. When I approach the daycare center on foot or by bike in the afternoon, I can hear the happy laughter of the children playing in the daycare area outside from a distance. And this good atmosphere is no coincidence for me, because the colorful, diverse team of educators at Hyazinthweg is extremely committed, appreciative and individual in looking after the well-being, development and coexistence of the children. Whether it's telling stories in the morning circle, eating together, free play in the role-playing room, going on a trip to the Dünnwald wildlife park, for example, with the football or music club, experimenting, doing crafts, reading aloud or relaxing... There is actually something exciting every day that our daughter happily or excitedly reports about after daycare. And what I would like to highlight in a particularly positive way is that when we pick her up, our daughter's teacher also reports very individually about what the little ones did and experienced that day.
