In order to enroll a child in kindergarten, you need to put him on the waiting list in advance. To do this, you must definitely have a baby's birth certificate and some other documents on hand.
How to provide your child with a place in kindergarten
Currently, in most Russian cities there is a certain shortage of places in kindergartens. In order for the kid to go to the kindergarten on time, he must be registered in advance in the list of children who will have to attend city preschool institutions in the near future.
In some localities, the queues for kindergarten are so long that an application for a place in a nursery group must be written immediately after the birth of the child.
You can register your baby in the citywide queue for kindergarten directly at the Education Committee. Registration can now be done very quickly. To do this, you just need to use the services of the desired site on the Internet.
On the page of the citywide website of the Education Committee, you need to find a special form and fill it out. You will need to indicate the last name, first name and patronymic of the baby, his date of birth, birth certificate number and passport details of one of the parents. It is important that the child or one of the parents is registered in the city where the child will go to kindergarten. In the absence of registration, you will need a certificate of temporary registration.
What to do when the queue for kindergarten has already come
When a place in the kindergarten becomes available, parents are called from the Education Committee and offered to contact one of the city's preschool institutions.
Parents need to go to the head of the said institution. You can take with you a passport, a child's birth certificate, a printout of a document in which a unique number assigned to a child when entering a kindergarten queue is indicated in advance.
In order for the baby to be admitted to a preschool institution, it is necessary to write an application addressed to the head. You will also need to go through a medical commission with the baby. To do this, you should contact the clinic at your place of residence or one of the private medical institutions.
When the commission is passed, parents should re-contact the kindergarten management by submitting a medical record. After completing all the formalities and signing the contract, the baby can be taken to the preschool on an ongoing basis.
If there are no queues for a place in a kindergarten or if the parents have chosen a private educational institution for the child, you do not need to contact the Education Committee, but immediately go to the head of the kindergarten you are interested in.
