Provence Alpes Agglomération has launched a survey for parents and future parents to conduct a comprehensive assessment of early childhood services in its territory, with participation requested until November 20, 2026.

Early childhood services, essential for families' daily lives and the territory's attractiveness, are undergoing a comprehensive diagnostic process by Provence Alpes Agglomération. The goal is to adapt services and support to local needs and realities.
The first step involves engaging parents and future parents in this reflection through an online survey, open from October 19 to November 20, 2026. Questions cover childcare options, choice criteria, schedules, travel, and parenting support, aiming to accurately identify territorial needs.
This consultation will complement an inventory of existing services, enriched by interviews with structures, services, and professionals, whether inter-municipal, associative, or private. The resulting diagnosis will form the basis for developing, in early 2027, a multi-year early childhood plan.
This plan will define the Agglomeration's priorities for the next five years regarding family services, reception, and support, and will schedule the creation, adaptation, or renovation of childcare facilities.
