Childcare / Creche in Poland - typical cost?

Quick question, how much is childcare typically in Poland or what are the availability of creches like in general?

Appreciate it can vary region to region (will be based in Lodz)

look on websites, but generally 8-10pln per hour.

I think mothers can stay per free often. it's donated, isn't it?
I wonder why reporters don't show situations when drunk mothers being in pregnancy or who are close to give a birth are transported by a police.

More journalist should do this.
I guess somebody should to tell them that in place like the ones per period of time stay 20 women, maybe more?
I thought there are only two till the moment when I was spoken to a lady who is retitred and works there.

noreenb, this is about żłobki, not schroniska dla samotnych matek

Thanks Terri

Childcare, isn't it? Isn't it connected with the topic somehow?
why do you correct me? What kind of meaning does it have?

Noreenb, connected does not necesarily mean relevant.

As an ex proofreader (not in English language of course) I will answer you sa11y: Yes, you're perfectly right.

childcare in krakow? price?

Hello!

I will be living in Krakow for the next month (May 3-June 2) and am looking for occasional childcare care for my 18 month old son. Preferably someone who speaks enough English for us to communicate on a basic level.

I am wondering what a reasonable hourly rate is for babysitting? Also if you or someone you know are experienced with children, live in Krakow, and are interested please let me know!

The hours I seek help for are Mondays and Wednesdays from 12-3pm and Tuesdays and Thursdays from 3:30-6:30 pm . 12 hours weekly.

Thank you for your help!

The best place to look or advertise is 'gumtree Krakow'. You will get an idea of the going rate. I assume that you will pay cash in hand.

Cost of Nursery/Day care who can look after my 1.3 year old Daughter.

Hi Can someone help me with the Cost of Nursery/Day care who can look after my 1.3 year old Daughter in Katowice or Poland in general.

It would be easier to employ a full-time nanny to live in. Look on gumtree for adverts.

About 1000-1200zł a month for English language nursery/kindergarten. Might be lower in some areas, but budget for that.

Wife and I recently visited all English language nurseries/kindergartens in Wroclaw. Nothing decent below 1600 zl. The one that we picked is 2000 zl incl. meals (and it is not the most expensive one).

Just a hint, but many of the more expensive ones actually have worse problems than cheaper ones.

Look into the educational background of the staff. You'll find that expensive nurseries often cut corners by hiring people without actual pedagogical qualifications, and they're officially employed as pedagogical assistants. I could name you two or three of them where they have a seemingly excellent offer, but the teachers carrying out most of the care are actually unqualified. One nursery I know was using Ukrainians on minimum wage for signing documents, while using unqualified English speakers to actually do the work.
