Diocese of Mainz grants quality seal to kindergartens in Neu-Isenburg
In the city of Neu-Isenburg, parents can breathe a sigh of relief knowing that their children are in good hands. The city is home to multiple excellent childcare facilities, including municipal, church, and private institutions.
Two of these facilities, St. Francis and St. Joseph Kindergartens, have recently received the prestigious quality seal "Catholic Children and Family Center." This recognition honours kindergartens that go beyond pure childcare and support families in various life situations.
The award ceremony took place on January 15th at the Erbacher Hof in Mainz. The kindergartens were commended for their high pedagogical standards, network cooperation with other social and church institutions, and the provision of educational programs and counselling services.
First Deputy Mayor Stefan Schmitt congratulated the institutions on receiving the award, emphasising that Neu-Isenburg has many different, excellent childcare facilities that offer more than just childcare.
The concept of the quality seal includes advice, accompaniment, and support for families, making these kindergartens more than just a place for childcare. They function as meeting places for families, fostering a sense of community and togetherness.
While specific details about the "Catholic Children and Family Center" quality seal and its criteria are not readily available, it is generally understood that such quality seals from Catholic organisations recognise early childhood education centres or kindergartens that meet standards of Catholic identity, family engagement, faith formation, care, safety, and educational quality aligned with Catholic teachings. Criteria often include adherence to moral and religious principles, qualified staff, age-appropriate curriculum, active involvement of families, and compliance with local childcare regulations.
