Crèche Zurich & Zug: Your Baby in the Best Hands

In our crèche area, lovingly called our "Nest", we have been creating a safe haven for over 20 years where your baby can make their first discoveries. The environment in our crèches is specially designed so that our youngest children feel comfortable and can develop through play, whilst being individually supported by key workers in small groups.

Particularly important to us is the gentle attunement to each individual child's needs. Whilst your baby explores the world at their own pace, our experienced educators ensure the perfect balance between secure safety and stimulating development – an approach with which we have been building trust with families in our crèches in Zurich & Zug for decades.

Little Explorers - Lovingly Supported

Our Nappy Curriculum© for Babies at the Crèche

Our specially developed Nappy Curriculum© forms the educational heart of our crèche in Zurich and Zug. It is based on the latest scientific insights and combines proven methods from Pikler and Montessori. At the centre is the trusting relationship with key workers, which gives your baby the security they need to explore their environment with curiosity.

The carefully designed rooms of our "Nest" follow our MyWorld© concept and specifically promote the following areas of development:

Sensory & Perception

Diverse materials for touching, feeling and discovering stimulate all your baby's senses.

Early Communication

Through baby sign language, songs and picture books, we lay the foundation for language development and expression.

Motor Development

Stimulating movement activities promote both your child's gross and fine motor skills.

Social-Emotional Competence

Secure attachments and gentle group experiences strengthen basic trust and emotional stability.

What parents say about our crèche

5.0
Family Thompson
Seefeld, 2021

"We'd like to thank every single member of your team who looked after our son with such warmth and care. We dropped him off with you each day feeling completely at ease, and that peace of mind is absolutely priceless! Thank you for everything!"

Family Grey
Kilchberg, 2017

"Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for five wonderful years of care for both our children. It wasn't just childcare - it was affection, kindness, security and love. That meant the world to us. We're going to miss you all terribly. We are big fans of Little Star Day School."

Family Xin
Sihlcity, 2022

"It was an absolute pleasure for our family to bring our daughter and son to Little Star, and they had the most wonderful time there. When our daughter first arrived at Little Star, she was far too shy to speak to anyone. By the time she left, she was chatting away confidently with teachers in both fluent English and German. Our son started when he was just a 10-month-old baby, and when he left at age 4, he'd grown into a bright, confident little boy - completely ready for school. Many thanks for all your brilliant work!"

Your Questions, Our Answers

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Crèche in Zurich & Zug

In this section you'll find answers to frequently asked questions. Do you have further questions or would you like personal consultation? Please get in touch with us. We look forward to hearing from you!

What care models does the crèche offer?

We offer flexible care models from 2 to 5 days per week. You can choose between part-time and full-time care. Individual care hours are also possible upon request. Our family advisers work with you to create the optimal care model for your family situation.

What does the all-inclusive offering at the crèche include?

Our all-inclusive concept includes educational care, all meals (breakfast, lunch, snacks), drinks, nappies, care products and bedding. You only need to bring spare clothes, dummies if needed and special food or breast milk when required. This way we ease your family routine and you can focus on what matters most.

How is the Little Star Bottle Bridge© programme implemented?

Our unique programme supports breastfeeding mothers through specially trained baby specialists. We accommodate your feeding and nursing rhythm, handle expressed breast milk sensitively and offer spaces for nursing in our crèche when needed. Close communication between you and our carers ensures a gentle transition and continuation of the breastfeeding relationship.

How does collaboration with parents work?

A trusting educational partnership is particularly important to us in crèche care. In addition to daily handover conversations, we document your baby's meals, sleep times and special experiences. Regular development discussions give you insight into your child's progress. Through our digital parent app, you also receive regular photos and updates from daily crèche life.

How is bilingualism implemented in the crèche?

Even at crèche age, we lay the foundation for natural bilingualism. Following the immersion principle "One Person – One Language", each member of staff consistently speaks in their native language (German or English) with the babies. This way, the littlest ones experience both languages in a natural context and associate them with specific people. Songs, finger games and simple picture books are offered in both languages.
