Hortbetreuung in Rheinland-Pfalz Informationserteilung

After-school care in Rhineland-Palatinate is an institutional service for children from school age up to the age of 14.

This childcare service is also available during vacation periods. Registration or deregistration of the child usually takes place via the respective after-school care center.

Parents should find out about available childcare places as early as possible.

Further information can be found on the Kitaserver for Rhineland-Palatinate.

Childcare in the after-school care center is generally subject to contributions. The costs are determined on the basis of the parents' income and the number of children. Please ask your local youth welfare office for the specific after-school care fees. Costs incurred for lunch at the after-school care center are charged separately.

The after-school care fees can be reduced for two to three children per family or for low-income families. As a rule, no parental contribution is charged for four or more children. An exemption is possible for families with a very low income. The decisive factor here is the number of children for whom a family receives child benefit or comparable benefits.

Contributory after-school care for children is possible from school age up to the age of 14, including during school holidays.

Please contact the youth welfare offices of the respective districts and independent cities or the desired after-school care center directly.

If your child is to attend the after-school care center, a written registration is required. This can be done informally. The same applies to deregistration.

The relevant office will also provide you with the appropriate forms.
