Summer vacation in Tyrol: Where are the childcare places for children?

Innsbruck, Österreich - The Easter holidays are imminent and for many parents serve as a foretaste of the challenges of the coming summer vacation. Current reports show a high need for childcare during this time, but the offer for comprehensive care cannot keep up with the needs of families. The example of Tyrol impressively shows how difficult it is for parents to organize nine -week childcare in order to ensure the compatibility of family and work. krone.at reports that many parents face the question of how they can look after their children while they have to work.

In Innsbruck there are already specific offers for holiday care for children who visit urban kindergartens or school centers. The city offers care during the holiday season, including the upcoming Easter holidays from April 14 to 21, 2025. The prerequisite for this is that the children have working parents and their main residence in Innsbruck. The support takes place on weekdays from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. in the urban kindergartens and from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. in the urban compulsory schools and schoolbrations. Registration for the support offers was queried in the facilities from March 3 to 14, 2025. During the summer vacation, the care is offered from July 7 to August 22, 2025, whereby a separate registration is required. Further information on this is announced Innsbruck.gv.at .

need for suitable support offers

full -time parents are faced with a major challenge in the context of holiday care. It is estimated that they have around 30 vacation days available annually, while there are twice as many holidays. Therefore, parents have to ask themselves where they can accommodate their children during their school holidays. Schools with afternoon programs often offer special offers during the holidays, but not always for the entire period. Parents.de emphasizes that many cities, municipalities and companies offer holiday camps and leisure campaigns that represent a combination of supervision and adventure. However, the places in popular holiday camps are often in high demand, so parents should act early to ensure that they receive a place for their children.

The organization of the care during the holidays can be made easier by creative solutions. Grandparents often play an important role in care, even if they do not live nearby. Parents can also try to switch to the Freundeskreis by playing their children with friends. A written vote can be helpful to set these arrangements. The possibility of taking parental leave when the child is younger than eight years should also be considered, since each parent is entitled to three years of parental leave.

Good preparation is crucial so that both parents and children can go into the holiday season relaxed. Individual solutions such as Leihomas or babysitters are further options that parents can offer.
