Many parents are unsettled and fear high costs for care. When a new daycare funding model comes into force in September, some will have to pay up to 1,000 euros more per month. They protest against this.
Mothers and fathers painted posters, packed up their children and came to Odeonsplatz on Wednesday afternoon because they were worried. And because they are angry. “We demand affordable daycare places for everyone,” they shout. And a mother says that she no longer needs to go to work if she has to pay a total of 2,000 euros in childcare fees for her two children.
