You want to develop professionally and are looking for a new challenge?
Then you are exactly right with us, be a part of the story of allegra
With our daycares allegra Pfäffikon, allegra Beckenhof and pop e poppa Erlenbach, we are reinventing the world of early childhood education – offering the best care and learning environment for children, and maximum flexibility for parents.
In our bilingual daycare centers (English/German) in Zürich, Pfäffikon, and Erlenbach, we accompany and care for children aged 3 months up to kindergarten entry, supporting them in their development through every stage of early childhood. Our premises are designed with thoughtfully arranged educational spaces that encourage exploration, creativity, and independence. In addition to a purposeful room design, we place great value on nature-based education – the outdoors is an important living and learning environment for us, where children can experience, discover, and grow through direct interaction with nature.
The allegra concept follows a modern pedagogical concept, supporting children on their path to independence by actively involving them in everyday activities and decision-making processes.
To complement our great team, we currently offer immediately or by arrangement
