The Kinder- & Jugendhaus Paradies is a socio-pedagogical residential facility for young people of pre-school and apprentice age. Here they find a safe place to process the past and learn new things.

In our beautifully situated residential home above the village of Mettmenstetten in the Canton of Zurich, we offer 24 children and young people aged 3-18 a professional and family home. Our team provides out-of-home care for minors who, for various reasons, can no longer live in their existing family structures. The socio-educational support of the children and young people is provided individually and holistically in three different residential groups. Young people with a high degree of independence have the opportunity to move into one of the two studio flats within the residential building.
