Shared time that strengthens and relieves
For families with babies and toddlers, a quiet, reliable meeting point is often worth its weight in gold. This is exactly where the Knirps-Treff comes in: parents talk to each other, share experiences, and receive suggestions from a professional. This creates orientation in everyday life with small children and strengthens the feeling of not being alone.

Educational added value for early development
The offer is deliberately aimed at early childhood. The discussions around development, care, and nutrition support parents in acting appropriately for children and in accordance with their age. The city of Gelsenkirchen describes its family offers as part of a family-friendly city with comprehensive family support and family education.
