The coworking space in the new Yond building in Zurich is all about flexibility. Workspaces can be rented by the hour, but also for half or full days. Anyone who wants to can have their children aged from three months to around six years looked after in the Kids Space. There is a cafeteria, two meeting rooms, an open space and plenty of places to retreat and work.

More people are coming every day now. Sometimes it's still very quiet here, on other days it's really busy, both upstairs in the coworking space and downstairs in the Kids Space. We can see that: It works. But what's important is that many people have supported us in its creation, for example via crowdfunding. We are now dependent on them finding their way to us from time to time. Be it to work, to attend one of our events or by booking meeting rooms with their companies.

Our audience is diverse. Some mums and many dads already work here. A start-up also rented a permanent space here in the first week. Many come regularly, others test us out first with drop-in days. The great thing is that more and more companies no longer just want to talk about compatibility, but actually want to do something for parents in their company. With a corporate subscription, employees at these companies can cushion those days when they have to meet deadlines but have no childcare options. This brings a lot of calm to the daily organisation of part-time working parents.

We hope that things will really take off for us and all parents who want to balance work and family life more easily. Then we can soon open the second Tadah coworking space with childcare at another location. And the third.
