In cooperation with pme Familienservice GmbH, HAW Hamburg offers emergency childcare for employees and students. A set number of total hours is available each quarter.

The CompanyKids Hafencity emergency childcare service, which is part of pme Familienservice GmbH, provides care for your child in emergency situations.

The situation is considered an emergency when your usual childcare is cancelled unexpectedly – for example, in the event of an unforeseen closure of the daycare facility or unexpected unavailability of an individual caregiver (Tagesmutter) when you have a work-related appointment outside the usual childcare hours.

KIDZ PLAYGROUND:
Our specially selected training and exercise team will help you develop your skills in specific sports and your motor skills. During the week of camp you will get to know a diverse range of sports in a playful way. This is an ideal opportunity to use your holidays to try out sports that you've so far maybe only heard about. Playing, having fun and enjoying movement are the central focus! Previous experience is not required.
'With our camps, we want to enable as many kids as possible to spend their holidays in a healthy, active and meaningful way while doing sports, playing and having fun!'

ADVENTURE CAMPS
One of our guiding principles is that sports aren't about winning or losing, but about having fun together. With us, children and teenagers can increase their trust in themselves and learn to be more independent. Conflicts also occur, of course, but we always solve them together.

Together with the Universität Hamburg and Hochschulsport Hamburg, the HAW Hamburg Family Office holds the inter-university Long-term Caregiving Awareness Day once a year. The awareness day addresses the need for information on the topic and includes various events related to the topics of preventative care, dementia, grief and mindfulness.

The Family Offices at Universität Hamburg, HAW Hamburg and TUHH, together with Hochschulsport Hamburg and other cooperation partners, organise a diverse cross-university programme to mark the International Day of Families.

Anyone who is studying at university and not only has to juggle lectures and study groups but is also raising children or providing care to a family member faces particular challenges. The HAW Hamburg Family Office, together with Hamburg's other universities (UHH, HCU, HfMT and TUHH) and Studierendenwerk Hamburg, organises the event 'Studying with a family – Balancing university studies with parenting and caregiving'.

The course is intended for anyone who has someone living with dementia in their life (family, friends, neighbours, etc.). As dementia-related illnesses progress, orientation, memory and other cognitive abilities are increasingly lost. This changes the behaviour of the person in question. Simultaneously, dealing with them is often a challenge and is associated with fears and insecurities. The goal of the BasisQ course is to enable a better understanding of specific problems faced by people with dementia. You will also receive the most important information on treating people with dementia appropriately.
