Tallinn families with two or more children who go to kindergarten can apply for a place fee exemption. The exemption can be awarded if a parent and their children have registered residency in Tallinn and a parent has made an application.
Families in Tallinn with more than one child attending kindergarten will now benefit from a fee exemption for the second child onwards. Previously, both the child and parent needed to be registered at the same address, but starting next year, it will suffice if both the parent and children are registered as Tallinn residents.
The Tallinn City Government submitted a draft regulation to the City Council today, proposing to exempt parents of children attending municipal kindergartens from paying fees for three days during the support strike for education workers.
Tallinn will continue to compensate families for the increase in kindergarten fees in the new year - parents will receive a subsidy or compensation if the child and at least one parent are continuously resident in Tallinn from 31 December 2022 onwards.
