Support measures for members of the university with children as result of the Corona Pandemic
As a result of the corona pandemic, university members with children are exposed to particular time pressure due to the lack of childcare and the additional homeschooling, in addition to the switch to digital teaching. For the upcoming examination phase as well as for the preparation and implementation of teaching in the coming summer semester, the following support services are therefore provided:
The FamilienServiceBüro facilities/assists in collaboration with the staff of the PUKi babysitters, whose qualifications and availability were ascertained in advance. Hence, the needs of the parents can be addressed adequately. If you are looking for a babysitter, please contact FamilienServiceBüro via email (Barbara Pickhardt). Please indicate your time requirements and any special considerations to be taken into account when looking after your child/children.
If necessary, an appointment for consultation can also be arranged via email.
In the first three and in the last week of the summer holidays, holiday leisure activities are offered outside the university, e.g. in the Waldschule in Haxtergrund and the Nature 365体育_足球比分网￥投注直播官网 in Schloss Neuhaus. These are half-day and full-day offers in the field of experiential pedagogy and art. Due to the high hygiene requirements, however, the number of places is limited.
Registration can be done by email to Andrea Sabban
Students doing examinations can be reimbursed for private childcare costs to enable them to prepare adequately for the examination. A maximum of 5 days of care (up to 6 hours) will be reimbursed. Care costs will be reimbursed for children up to 12 years of age and for children with special needs until the end of compulsory schooling. The costs of babysitters, who are privately organised, as well as for babysitters/caregivers provided by the FamilienServiceBüro, can be reimbursed. A prerequisite for reimbursement of costs is the registration of the care person at the Mini-job Centre or the registration of self-employment.
Student parents who have an annual income of less than 25,000 euros and therefore do not pay Kindergarten-fees can be reimbursed for the registration costs incurred at the Mini-job Centre. The FamilienServiceBüro offers advice on matters regarding the registration of babysitters/caregivers at the Mini-job Centre.
Reimbursement of childcare costs can be applied for until 30.09.2021 (duration of the Corona-Epidemie-University regulations).
