Hand in Hand: Your School Support Hannover & Isernhagen

The process is designed to be incredibly simple and completely transparent for you. First, you describe your child's individual need for support and the school's general conditions in a short, non-binding inquiry. We then search our extensive network for a companion who is a perfect fit both professionally and personally. Finally, we organize an initial meeting so that you and your child can take your time to decide whether the chemistry is right.

No, our placement service is absolutely free of charge for you as a searching family. The subsequent financing of the school companion itself is fully covered by the responsible youth or social welfare office anyway, provided the application is approved. You can therefore use our portal completely without financial risk to find the best possible help.

The bureaucratic path to final approval can often be nerve-wracking and confusing for families. That is why we do not leave you alone with the complicated applications. We explain exactly which authority is responsible for your specific request and which medical reports are required. In addition, we give you helpful tips on how to formulate your child's support needs optimally and comprehensibly in the application. This saves you valuable time and increases the chances of quick approval by the funding provider.

As soon as we have the official notice of approval from the funding provider, we immediately begin the targeted placement. In many cases, the support can then start within a few weeks or right on time for the start of a new school term.

Our placed specialists and everyday companions work at absolutely all types of schools in Germany. This fully includes regular primary schools, secondary schools such as grammar schools or comprehensive schools, as well as special needs schools. The only decisive factor for us is always the place where your child receives the best possible educational support.

We can absolutely reassure you here. You never have to act as a legal employer at any time and therefore do not have to worry about employment contracts, insurance, or holiday replacements. The companions are permanently employed by recognized independent providers, with whom the responsible office directly settles the approved specialist performance hours. You can thus concentrate fully on the well-being of your child and everyday family life.

Yes, this is generally possible, provided the responsible office officially recognizes the need for the afternoon. If your child also relies on individual help in the open all-day school (OGS) or in the after-school care center, this is applied for directly in the support planning process. The companion then simply remains as a secure anchor by your child's side beyond regular classes.

The safety and the best possible educational support of your child are our highest priority. Therefore, all persons in our network go through a strict vetting process by the respective employing providers. In addition to the submission of relevant certificates, this naturally also strictly includes a current, extended police clearance certificate. Furthermore, during the placement process, we pay meticulous attention to ensuring that the professional profile of the companion exactly matches your child's specific focus of support. Whether an experienced career changer or a graduated special education teacher – we will find exactly the right person for your individual family situation.

A well-functioning, absolutely trusting relationship between child and companion is the foundation for successful inclusion. Should there, contrary to expectations, be no personal harmony at all, we will by no means leave you alone with this problem. You can seek an open conversation with us or the responsible provider at any time. We will then immediately and discreetly take care of a smooth change of personnel so that your child feels completely comfortable again.

The best way is to simply use the contact form on our homepage directly to describe your child's current situation to us completely without obligation. We will then get back to you promptly to discuss the next steps together and start the search immediately.
