Kostenbeitrag für die Betreuung eines Kindes in der Kindertagesbetreuung

If your child is cared for in day care, the local public youth welfare agency collects contributions by decision in accordance with § 18 Abs.2 in conjunction with § 17 Abs.1 KitaG.

Parents pay contributions for the care of their child.

Day care:

If child day care is used, the local public youth welfare agency levies the parental contributions in accordance with § 18 Abs. 2 in conjunction with § 17 KitaG. Pursuant to Paragraph 17(1) of the KitaG, the persons entitled to custody contribute to the expenses incurred for child day care within the meaning of Paragraph 17(3) of the KitaG with their parental contributions and with a meal allowance, the amount of which is limited to the average saved own expenses for lunch. Since the parental contributions pursuant to § 17 para. 1 sentence 1 KitaG are contributions to the costs incurred, the highest parental contribution may not exceed the calculated costs of child day care attributable proportionately to a childcare place. The parental contributions are not to be determined and levied by the day care person, but by the local public youth welfare agency. The parental contribution is determined by decision.

Day nursery:

You may have to pay money to visit your child in day care. The burden may only be made within the framework of the so-called "reasonable burden". Contributions shall be determined according to the following criteria:

According to § 17 KitaG, the parental contributions are to be structured in a socially acceptable manner and staggered according to the parental income, the number of their dependent children and the agreed scope of care. The parental contributions are determined and collected by the institution by means of a contribution regulation. Agreement must be reached with the local public youth welfare agency on the principles of the amount and graduation of parental contributions. Municipalities or associations of municipalities as sponsors of the institutions can determine the parental contributions and the meal allowance by statute and levy them as fees. The meal allowance is limited to the average saved own expenses for lunch.

If the income situation or the number of dependent children or the agreed scope of care changes, the contribution/fee is adjusted on the basis of the scale specified by the institution / the public youth welfare institution.

• Notification of the legal entitlement and the approved scope of care
• Childcare contract with child day care worker
