Founded as «Childcare Service Basel» in 2000 and known from 2013 to mid-2019 under the name "profawo Basel", we have now been operating completely independently and under the name Familycare Basel since July 1, 2019. The new name of our organization underlines our promise: to provide professional, high-quality and personal advice and support for the whole family, with a strong base in Basel and in North-West Switzerland. From our Basel headquarters, we serve our clients throughout Switzerland and in neighboring countries through our branch network and with selected partners.

IBSA Foundation for children is a non-profi t organisation whose purpose, among others, is to manage the IBSA Primi Passi Nursery, a day-care centre for children aged 4 months to 4 years, created to give tangible help to employees and the population of the Canton Ticino in one of the most critical phases of parenthood, favouring a better balance between parenting and work commitments. The pedagogical approach, implemented by Montessori-trained professionals, is based on the theories of active pedagogy, which considers every child competent, active, and eager to know and learn through the enjoyment of knowing how to do things.
