Child Care

Child Care Option During ESEC/FSE 2019

Viru hotel provides us with a free room for (smaller) children as a playroom. Professional caretakers who look after the kids can be organized via the Tallinn-based 5C Kids Club (http://www.5ckidsclub.ee).

5C Kids Club offers child care service for kids every day during the conference from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm as well as in the evening hours after 6:00 pm (at higher cost).

If personnel capacities allow, parents could also make arrangements with the 5C Kids Club to have their kids looked after on the Club’s premises in Liivalaia 5-65 (15 minutes to walk from Viru Confernce Centre or 5 minutes by tram or taxi). On the AC Kids Club’s premises age appropriate activities, toys, crafts, etc. will be offered and healthy snacks and drinks provided.

CAPS Funds for Child Care Financial Support

SIGSOFT provides funds for a limited number of grants that support child care for both student and professional members that would like to participate in a SIGSOFT-sponsored event but are unable to do so without this support. The application deadline for the CAPS program has passed a while ago; however we still may be able to accommodate a limited number of requests. For more information, please contact the General Co-Chair Dietmar Pfahl who will forward your request to the CAPS coordinator.
