KiTa Bremen
Bremen’s municipal
Children and Family Centers
– We get education rolling –
KiTa Bremen, owned by the municipality of Bremen, is the largest provider of child daycare. With around 2,500 employees, we run our 89 child and family centers. We educate, raise and care for around 9,000 children in crèche, elementary and after-school groups and in playhouses/meeting places. A prejudice-conscious approach to diversity and the active promotion of inclusion and participation are key principles of KiTa Bremen’s self-image. Our child and family centers focus on both the children and their family environment and work together with institutions and political bodies in the district according to the principles of district orientation. Fresh food is cooked daily in our children’s and family centers. The healthy nutrition of the children and the close cooperation between the educational and home economics departments are very important to us.
In our kitchens, we prepare freshly cooked meals every day with our own staff. The employees are usually permanently assigned to a facility. In addition, there is a pool of employees for substitute assignments.
Full-time. The Housekeeping and Hygiene Department is one of our central service facilities and advises the children’s and family centers on how to manage their daily tasks and requirements. In addition to the head of the department, the unit includes the catering coordinator and a total of two cleaning managers. The coordinator works closely with the head of unit and supports them with overarching issues and management tasks.
