About Starkita GmbH

Our concept

Strengthen strengths

We recognize that each person simply thinks differently and accept this. In addition to strengths, each person also brings weaknesses. And this is crucial to building a strengths-based daycare culture. We use this as an opportunity to adjust the distribution of tasks to the individual involved - children and staff.

Promote team spirit

We are loyal to our own values and the values of the Kita company. Shared values and goals give us orientation in our teamwork. Fair rules and simple conflict resolution are part of our work with the children and with each other.

Create a pleasant atmosphere

Trust is a decisive factor in our daycare company. That's why we work with each other at the KiTa and not just together. We pass on information as simply and transparently as possible and take responsibility for our decisions. Mistakes accompany us in the Kita everyday life. We have the courage to reflect on them openly and honestly and to learn from them.

Shape direction

We accept each other as we are. In this way, we promote the development of our own talents both in the child and in the team. Fun in learning accompanies us in everyday life. That is why we continue to grow professionally and personally.

EDUCATION

"If you pick your child up clean from daycare today, he or she has not played or learned anything."

Personality development

We work according to the "situation-oriented approach", i.e. we place the interests and needs of the child in the foreground. Thus, the children's living environment is shaped in a self-determined and responsible way within the framework of our daily pedagogical work.
The environment, as well as the daycare center, plays a decisive role in this. To live in an open-minded and cosmopolitan way, to think positively, to accept new challenges and to never give up belong to the values we live in our pedagogical work.
Because we have set ourselves a goal: We want to strengthen the child's positive self-concept.

Familiarization

Our motto is: "It takes as long as it takes."
The KiTas of STARKITA e.V. work according to an in-house acclimatization concept, which is based on the "Berlin Acclimatization Model" and is handed out to the legal guardians during the admission interview.

Language Education

"Language is not everything, but without language everything is nothing",- is a quote from Albert Schmid.
Language is one of the most important key skills that the child will learn in his life. We need language to express our feelings, to explain and understand, to seek help and to make friends.
Special language development games with rhymes, phonics, sentence structure, vocabulary expansion and the mouth motor exercises accompany our daily work in the daycare center.

Preschool

Our special preschool program always takes place from January of the respective daycare year. All children who start school in the summer take part in the program. The aim is to further strengthen the children's abilities and skills so that the transition between daycare and elementary school can be a successful one.

Projects

A project is a longer-term examination of a topic, using different methods. The interests, wishes and ideas of the children are taken into account. We implement both internal and external projects.
The internal projects are always planned and guided by our pedagogical specialists. Such include, among others
o Early musical education
o Mathematical education
o Sensory perception
o Color theory
o Science education
o Art
o Rhythm and movement
The external projects are coordinated by the daycare center management and guided by the external experts:
o Aesthetic education
o Dog school
o Police
o Fire department

Fixed

The festivals are a part of our pedagogical work, including:
o Winterproof
o Lantern festival
o Summer party
o Carnival
o Kita birthday, etc...
These provide new positive community experiences for both the children and families, as well as for the entire team. This consolidates and strengthens our STARKITA e.V. corporate culture.

Excursions

Excursions - never without! Because we want everyday life to be an exciting and stimulating experience for the children. Where are we going?
o Zoo
o State Museum
o Sealife
o Nature friend house as Kita trip with overnight stay
o Indoor playground
o Zoo
o Park of the Senses
o Visit to the theater
o Cinema

Our kitchen

STAR children receive three meals a day in all of our facilities. Breakfast, lunch and tea time are prepared daily by the in-house cook for the children and the pedagogical staff. Our STAR cooks do their own shopping and are therefore responsible for the quality and sustainability of the food.

Also the menu is designed by the STAR cook considering seasonal and regional resources. The kitchen and the food are regularly inspected by "Food Control and Central Office Hanover".

Children have uninterrupted access to drinks.

STAR-ELTERN

star-parent

Support from you, dear parents, is an essential part of STARKITA e.V. life. Each of our daycare centers has its own STAR parent advisory board, which is an active and committed organization. Through this formal way you support your own institution. They help organize and carry out projects and events to promote their daycare and raise funds for their daycare.

Thus, you dear parents can be involved in the enrichment process of your child's development by participating in the STAR Parent Advisory Council. Even as a non-member of the STAR Parents' Advisory Council, you informally help the pedagogical team through your participation in various children's activities. This can be done both in and outside of your daycare. Just ask your group educator about it!

We offer you targeted parent meetings, both planned and spontaneous. This is what distinguishes the close cooperation between STARKITA e.V. and you.

Your opinion

Dear children, parents and employees, your positive opinion about our cooperation strengthens our team spirit. Please encourage your "STARKITA e.V." with your praise!

Your opinion as constructive criticism is gladly reflected within the framework of our "STAR Complaint Management". Because we see every complaint as a stimulus to permanently question our work and thus as an invitation to become better. A positive attitude in this process leads decisively to active action and joint success. This is expressed through a respectful and error-friendly atmosphere. Communication is made simple and transparent for all involved.
