Earn money with what you're truly good at:
Pedagogy.
Trustolino is the childcare platform where exclusively verified childcare professionals provide care: pedagogy students, trainees, and trained specialists. Gain paid practical experience in your field, build your career portfolio, and become a verified Trusted Educator.
Gain real experience and make it verifiable
With Trustolino, you put your knowledge directly into practice:
Work with children
Work with children in real care situations and gain valuable practical experience.
Develop your skills
Actively develop your pedagogical skills and apply your theoretical knowledge in everyday life.
Career Portfolio
Your career portfolio grows automatically: Every care session documents hours, age groups, parent collaboration, and ratings. In the end, you export everything as a PDF, a proof of practice that makes your first application stand out from all the others who can only show their mandatory internships.
Your portfolio complements your education and studies, it does not replace a mandatory internship and cannot be credited as an educational or academic achievement.
Why do we call you a childcare professional?
At Trustolino, you are a childcare professional. Why don't we just call you a specialist? Because specialist in child and youth welfare is a technically defined term that requires a completed vocational or university degree. Many of you are still on your way there, and we support exactly this path. Childcare professional encompasses all of you: verified, with a pedagogical background and a professional standard for your own work. You don't get the title here by claiming it, but by passing a verification.
No paperwork and full focus on your work
We know your time is valuable. That's why we handle all the administrative tasks for you. You concentrate on what matters: working with children.
Taxes and bureaucracy
Invoices are created automatically. We compile all important documents for you to keep your paperwork to a minimum.
Trustolino does not replace tax advice. We only provide all tax-relevant documents.
Security and reliability
Thanks to split payment via a secure payment provider, your money is reserved in advance. Cancellations are easily possible up to 12 hours beforehand.
Appointment management
The integrated calendar helps you keep track of your bookings with simple 30 minute intervals.
Small transaction fee
We only charge a small transaction fee on successfully completed bookings. If you don't have any bookings, you pay absolutely nothing.
Ad-free & Secure
Trustolino is completely ad-free. The data security of our users is very important to us.
Why every booking goes through Trustolino
Every booking via Trustolino pays off for you: It grows as documented experience in your career portfolio, your fee is reserved before the care begins, invoicing is handled automatically, and our support is available if you have questions. A private arrangement outside the platform saves a small fee and costs you all of this: no proof for your portfolio, no payment security, paperwork on your own.

How to become a Trusted Educator
Step 1
Register and submit proof of qualifications (certificate of enrollment, training contract, or graduation certificate).
Step 2
Submit an extended certificate of conduct (optional). We will issue the necessary certificate for this, we verify by inspection and do not store a copy.
Step 3
Personal verification by our team of educators, no algorithm, no self-disclosure. After that, your profile goes live with the Trusted Educator seal. To ensure the seal remains meaningful, we refresh the verification at regular intervals.
How pre-registration works: At release, we'll send you a unique code via email. Redeem it during your in-app profile creation to permanently unlock your Trusted Educator status.
