When we take care of your child
Are we taking care of your child or children? Read about meals at your child's institution, opening hours, closing days, how to move your child to another daycare institution, if you move to another municipality or if you leave Denmark, and more.
Opening hours and closing days
Normal opening hours in daycare institutions in Aarhus are Monday and Friday 6.30 - 16.30 and Tuesdays to Thursdays 6.30-17.00. There are daycare institutions that have extended opening hours or shorter opening hours. Within certain guidelines, the daycare institutions decide for themselves when they will have closing days during the year.
Withdrawing your child from daycare, SFO and Club
Withdraw your child from childcare, SFO, and club. Withdrawal must be done with two months' notice. You can withdraw your child for the 15th, or for the last day of the month.
Food and meals at your child's daycare institution
Children attending a childminder (dagpleje), day nursery, and kindergarten are offered a healthy meal for lunch on a daily basis.
Get leave from childcare
You can apply for your child to get a leave from their childminder, day nursery, or kindergarten. Your child cannot get a leave from SFO or club. You must apply for leave with a minimum of two months’ notice, and the leave must last for at least eight weeks.
