Attending conferences often presents challenges for participants with families.

EMBO is pleased to offer childcare services during The EMBO Meeting.

• Children between the ages of 3 and 13 can be registered for on-site childcare from experienced and licensed providers speaking a range of languages including English, German, French and Spanish.
• Only full-day care is available and numbers are limited to 70 children.
• On-site catering from 08:30 to 18:15 will offer snacks, refreshments and lunch. A "late-service option" will be available for parents attending the special evening lectures or activities.

You can indicate your childcare requirements on the online registration form.

Children aged three to six years

The youngest children (aged 3 - 6) will benefit from a secure "beach" area which is part of the Amsterdam RAI in a fun, beach-themed and fully supervised programme. There will be an area made available at the RAI for the youngest children to relax or take a nap after lunch.

Children aged six to eight years

A fully supervised adventure in a park close to the Amsterdam RAI will occupy the children aged 6 - 8 enabling them to have fun and play while their parents are away.

Children aged nine to 13 years

Older children aged 9 - 13 will participate in a fully supervised city-bound programme, exploring museums and other sights in a fun way.
