When it comes to taking care of our little ones, more counts than just a free space. It is about trust, development and genuine cooperation. At Nidino, we believe in a system that gives children a sense of security and makes life easier for parents: The Home Nursery— rethought.

💛 A temporary home — with heart

Children thrive best in stable, loving relationships. A home nursery offers just that: a permanent caregiver in a family-like environment. No constant staff changes, no loud large groups — but a small community in which every child is seen.

“Children need stable ties for their emotional and social development. A constant caregiver, as is usual in day families, promotes trust, self-esteem and resilience,” explains Prof. Dr. Remo Largo, Swiss pediatrician and development expert.

🧠 Learn as if you were a sibling

In our childminders, we usually children of different ages supervised — and that is no coincidence. The little ones learn from the grown-ups through imitation, language, play and social interaction. Grown-ups learn patience, responsibility, and compassion. The result is a dynamic learning environment, just like with siblings — with added educational value.

Dr. Sabine Walper from the German Youth Institute regularly emphasizes the importance of everyday learning situations and social diversity — aspects that represent mixed-age situations particularly well in childcare.

🕐 Flexibility that really helps

Our Nidino home nurseries offer flexible care based on the needs of the parents. They provide support with care into the evening, occasionally at weekends or as babysitters in emergencies - whenever it is needed.

💸 Relief for the family budget

A place in the Nidino day family is on average 20% cheaper as a daycare place — with the same or even higher quality. Our platform ensures that only agreed hours are paid. That means: Less stress, more predictability.

Conclusion: suitable for children. Parent-friendly. Close to everyday life.

The modern home nursery is not only a real alternative to daycare — It is often the better choice. With Nidino, we bring structure, security and heart to this care model. Digital, professional and with a clear goal: Giving children the best start in life — and giving parents the support they need.
