Current information

Introduction/specifics

For over 55 years, the Sankt Marien und Sankt Joseph daycare center has been the place where many children from Kalk have made their first lifelong friends.

In summer 2018, we will be moving to a new building at Thumbstraße 26 in Cologne-Kalk. The new premises will enable us to care for more children under the age of 3.

Care providers are responsible for all profile content. (State: 18/02/2026 15:57:02)

Description and Stations

The daycare center is located next to the Protestant hospital on Thumbstraße, at the corner of Buchforststraße and Thumbstraße.

The kindergarten is 350 meters from the Kalk-Kapelle tram stop and 200 meters from the Eythstraße bus stop.

Basics

Living out Christian values and making them tangible is just as important to us as accepting other cultures and religions.

In order to give children the foundation for future academic and professional success, we encourage them to expand their language skills, develop their own personalities, and act on their natural urge to move around.

However, the most important thing for us is that the children feel comfortable and secure in our facility.

Employee

Our daycare center currently provides full-day care for 75 preschool children (aged three to six) and five toddlers (aged two and above) by 15 qualified educational staff.

Additional Offerings

Children meet at our multicultural facility to play, experience, and learn together.

Every week, singing mentors come and accompany the children in intergenerational singing of well-known songs.
