Work-life balance, equal opportunities and integration.
Since 1901.

familea (formerly Basler Frauenverein) is a socially responsible association with a tradition of over 120 years in the Basel area. The range of services includes over 30 daycare centers with around 1400 care places, a children's home with three decentralized residential groups, a transit home for clarification and crisis intervention, a women's counseling center and the center for foster children. Reconciliation of family and work, equal opportunities and integration form our guiding principles for the design of support.

Day care centers

With over 30 daycare centers with around 1,400 places in the Basel-Stadt, Basel-Landschaft and Aargau areas, we offer a high-quality childcare program where your child feels comfortable, builds sustainable relationships and is encouraged in his or her interests and strengths.

Children and youth homes

In the children's home Lindenberg and the decentralized residential groups, familea offers children and adolescents protection, security and support with socio-pedagogical care. In the transit home Im Vogelsang, we offer immediate and round-the-clock support to children in difficult acute situations through crisis intervention and clarification.

Foster families

Thanks to the more than 200 foster families from its own placement pool, familea's Center for Foster Children (ZPK) offers children and adolescents protection, security and a perspective through reliable family relationships when care in the family of origin is not possible for various reasons.

Women's Counseling

The familea Frauenberatung offers social and legal counseling for women in difficult life situations. The counselors pursue a holistic counseling concept, which is aimed at women residing in the canton of Basel-Stadt and support women seeking advice in developing new perspectives.
