Parental support during congress sessions
ECE 2026 is committed to making the conference accessible for parents and caregivers, especially those with young children:
- Free access for children under 4.
- Reduced registration fee for children aged 4–12, mainly covering meals.
- A quiet room will be available for nursing, diaper changing, or rest (for children under 3, under parental supervision).
An accompanying adult must be registered as an Accompanying Person, unless both parents are conference participants.
We also have on-site childcare options for babies and children up to 10 years old during the congress. If interested, please reach us urgently as the number of available places is limited.
