Nursery places for students

Finding a place to keep your child can sometimes be a hassle for the parents. The Métropole de Lyon published a guide on the different ways to keep your child during the day. The Université Lumière Lyon 2 partnered with a kindergarten called EQUAL, near the Porte des Alpes campus. Half the seats in the kindergarten are kept for Lyon 2 students and personnel. Even though you can ask for a seat throughout the year, the sooner the better. Confirmation of inscriptions is in May and the attribution of places takes place in June.
