German Course for Women, With Childcare

From Astrid...thanks so much!!!
Here is some information on a German language course that has JUST begun. If interested, please contact Sabina Bacon, whose contact information is below.

Sabina Bacon is doing german lessons at the mothers centre in Hablerstr near Goethplatz, she has organised 2 girls to look after toddlers/babies in the nextdoor room/play area while doing so. My son and I went last week for the first lesson - there were 2 american ladies there and their babies (under ages of 2) and it worked quite well - once the kids settled to playing and realised that the mums were in the next room.

"Everybody is welcome and the Level for the teaching will be between a beginner to an advanced beginner up to A1++/A2-. There will be two babysitters, one English mother tongue the other German. After that we will meet 10 times every Tuesday from 09.30 to 11.30 am. The cost will be 240 Euro for the teaching. Which is exactly 9 Euros for the teaching hour (45min) In this course I will accept a reduction in the fee for absence or holiday for more than 1 week, if you can let me know in advance.The service of the babysitter is flexible and costs 10 Euros for the two hours if you want to take advantage of. There will alway be both babysitters and they will look after a maximum of 8 kids or babys. Children on the lap or in a sling are also very welcome in the teaching room as long as it allows you and the others to still take part in the lessons somehow.
If that sounds interesting to you, I would love you to come and see us tomorrow and I can sent you more details."
