Thousands of places like this to be provided
12.04.2022
Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki and Minister Marlena Maląg visited the Communal Nursery in Żabia Wola.
We will strive to create thousands of places like this throughout the whole Poland, said Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki during his visit to the nursery in Żabia Wola. They allow mothers to combine family-related and professional social roles.
Family comes first
Prime Minister Morawiecki emphasized that family is the most important foundation in life, and the beginning of everything else. However, it needs help in order for it to develop. The PiS government provides this help, inter alia, via the "Maluch +" program, supporting the development of new care-focused facilities.
Minister Marlena Maląg recalled that for six years now we have been developing a family - friendly climate in Poland. This is achieved not only by the development of a network of nurseries, but also by government programs implemented by the Ministry of Family and Social Policy, such as "Dobry Start", "Mama 4+" or “Rodzinny Kapitał Opiekuńczy”.
120 thousand PLN per child
Parents have already submitted PLN 75,000 applications in the newest family support instrument that has been in operation since April 1, consisting of co-financing aimed at reducing the fee for a child's stay in a nursery, children's club or with a daytime caretaker, said Minister Maląg.
Minister Marlena Maląg also summed up the financial expenditures provided under various pro-family programs: “State support for raising a child amounts to approx. PLN 120 000, from birth to the age of 18”.
"Maluch+" in Żabia Wola
The Commune Nursery in Żabia Wola received a total of PLN 1 158 080 from the “Maluch+" program, for its creation and maintenance. In the whole Mazowieckie Voivodeship, in the last year's edition of this program, co-financing was provided in the total amount of PLN 67,6 million. 1.1 million children are covered by the "Family 500+" program here.
