Career and family
Motivated by current demographic development and changes in society, we actively promote a balance between work and family at SMS group.
MEERblick kindergarten in Mönchengladbach
MEERBlick, the kindergarten in Mönchengladbach right next to our premises. The facility offers 30 places for children ranging from age four months to six years. As a family-owned company with a rich tradition, SMS group GmbH recognizes the importance of balancing professional success and private happiness. MEERBlick makes a valuable contribution to this. It is run by the workers’ welfare organization Arbeiterwohlfahrt Familienservice GmbH (AWO) in Mönchengladbach.
Concept
Nothing can replace the loving care of a family. Yet our kindergarten adds age-appropriate activities that build personal and social skills. They boost self-confidence and the courage to make decisions. It’s especially important to us that children learn about natural sciences through play.
