Basel - Post Report Question and Answers
Are preschools available? Day care? Are these expensive? What has been your experience with them, if any? Do the schools provide before- and/or after-school care?
Until around age 4-5, there is no guarantee of getting childcare, although there are private options, including many bilingual. (Better to go with a German-speaking option though if you're planning to stay more than a couple of years.) We have a child in a government-run daycare and it is excellent. Fees are based on your income. However, we were fortunate to get in. - Aug 2011
