We are very pleased that Nau.ch published an article about Nidino! Here you can find out how we are revolutionizing childcare in Switzerland and supporting parents and day families.
Childcare is a major challenge for many families in Switzerland. 71% of children under the age of three need external care — but the high costs make it almost impossible for many parents to find the right solution. Nidino starts right here.
With Nidino, we offer you:
Personal care: Children are cared for in small groups in a loving and safe environment.
Flexibility: Parents can book exactly the hours they need — without fixed daycare opening times.
Cheaper costs: Thanks to our transparent hourly rates, support is more affordable than many traditional models.
Nidino not only creates benefits for parents, but also offers childminders — particularly mothers — new career opportunities. Many women in Switzerland only work part-time or not at all, although they have great talents and experience in childcare.
With Nidino, as a childminder, you can:
✔ Get professional training and certifications
✔ Earn a fair income with social security and retirement plans
✔ Make your working hours flexible and be there for your own children at the same time
Our co-founder Sarah D'Aquino knows the challenges of childcare from her own experience. After the birth of her son, she wanted to reduce her working hours, but suitable care solutions were scarce. Her decision to care for children at home inspired her to found Nidino — and to the vision of providing parents and day families with a better balance.
Our platform brings parents and childminders together in a simple and transparent way. It takes on administrative tasks such as time recording and payment, so that you can concentrate entirely on support. In addition, our network ensures that reliable care is ensured even if childminders are ill or absent.
