Children are my Passion
I love children and children love me. That's why I work as a bilingual kindergarten assistant in a private kindergarten in Vienna. I teach the children in German and English. I am now offering professional care for children and young people from 1 to 15 years on the set.

Services
PROFESSIONAL CHILDCARE FOR FILM & TV PRODUCTIONS
Filming with children & youth
The employment of children up to the age of 15 in film and TV recordings in Vienna is subject to restrictions. Official permits and medical confirmations must be obtained for this. I offer all necessary services. Professional childcare on set is not required by law but highly recommended.
Medical confirmations
A medical confirmation from a specialist in ophthalmology must be proven or presented. At the request of the legal guardians, I accompany the children on the way to these doctors.
MA11 - Children and Youth Welfare
Municipal Department 11 is the official representation for children and youth affairs in Vienna. The application for permission to film with children must be submitted no later than six weeks before the scheduled shooting date. I can support with these administrative procedures.
Furher authority
A positive statement from the chamber of labor and the labor inspectorate responsible for the district in which the production company is registered is also required. I can support with these administrative procedures.
On the set
I look after the children and young people, entertain them and pay attention to their well-being. I will inform them about the timing of the shooting and provide them with food and drink. I can have a calming effect on them and pay attention to the prescribed breaks in shooting. I am also in direct contact with the parents and the film team.
