Childcare (where available)
- Admission criteria
We accept children from the age of three months up to the age of nine years. While your child is in our care, you must be present at the Fitness Park/on the Milandia premises. The maximum childcare slot is two hours. Prams, kickboards, etc. can be left in the designated locations outside of the Fitness Park. The admission criteria (and, where any settling in period is necessary) are discussed with the caregiver directly. - Entitlement
Generally speaking, all Fitness Park and Milandia members and guests can use the childcare service. Childcare is free as long as you hold a valid annual Fit or Swiss Fit membership, a monthly membership or a summer membership. Guests with single-admission or a 10-visit subscription (Milandia: also offers tennis, golf, climbing centre or special events/occasions) can use the childcare service for a fee (single admission). Only your own children can be left in the care of the facility. Bringing along the children of friends, relatives or acquaintances is forbidden (exception: grandchildren and for special events/occasions in Milandia). Children will only be cared for in the designated rooms; they cannot leave this area (e.g. to go to changing rooms, training areas, class studios, etc.). - Admission
On each visit, children are listed in the admission list. Your membership chip or the receipt for the single admission must be shown to the caregiver each time. By using the childcare facility, parents agree to the rules of use. If there is too much demand in the short term, a waiting list will be drawn up at the discretion of the caregiver. - Dropping off and collecting children
Your children will be dropped off at childcare by you personally and must be picked up by you during opening hours. If the child is picked up by another person, this must be expressly agreed in advance with the caregiver. Please register your child on our admission list every time they come and label personal items (bottles, dummies, etc.) with your child’s name Your child must be picked up on time for closing (generally five minutes before closing). Small children are generally not swaddled by the caregivers, parents are called for this (except during massage). We ask for your understanding if we have to disturb you during your training or in the spa zone because your child does not feel well or needs to be swaddled. Baby equipment such as nappies must be brought along.
For hygiene reasons it is important that you wash your child’s hands every time they arrive. - Food and drink
The children are given water. If necessary and following consultation with caregivers, you can give your child other healthy drinks or a healthy snack – please no soft drinks, chewing gum, chocolate or nuts. - Clothing/electronic devices
Don’t dress your child in nice clothes. Since there is painting and crafts, these can get dirty. Your child will need slippers or non-slip socks.

Please do not give your child any electronic devices (smartphones/tablets, etc.). - Illness/allergies/accident
Children will not be admitted while ill. Please let us know if your child has an allergy. Children who require special care as a result of an accident, who are dependent on special treatment or who have a disability can only be cared for following consultation with the caregiver. If your child falls ill, you as a parent will be informed. You are obliged to pick up your child immediately. Likewise, in the event of an accident, the parents will be notified immediately by the caregiver. Accompaniment to the doctor is the responsibility of the parents. If an accident requires quick action, it is the duty of the caregiver to immediately organise or provide the necessary help first before informing the parents. - Insurance
Taking out insurance (liability insurance, accident and health insurance) is the exclusive responsibility of the parents. Use of the childcare service is at the user’s own risk. Any liability on the part of Fitness Parks/movemi AG is expressly excluded. - Emergencies
