How to apply for a place at a daycare
Applying for and finding a daycare spot is relevant for families about 4–10 months before starting early childhood education.
However, we recommend submitting your application as soon as the need is known, to ensure a spot at your desired daycare. In some cases, your child could even start at a Pilke daycare as soon as the next business day.
