About

Founded in 2024, Stiftung Dianino is a foundation based in Weichering, Germany working on health, children & youth, education.

Stiftung Dianiño is a charitable foundation based in Weichering, Germany, that supports children and young people with type 1 diabetes and their families. Its core service is the Diabetes-Nanny project, in which volunteer nannies provide free psychosocial support, home visits and practical help in acute stress situations, typically after diagnosis or during family crises. Requests are made by treating doctors or diabetes teams. The foundation also runs training for educators, school and kindergarten staff, and sports clubs so children with diabetes can take part safely in daily life, school, leisure and sport. It organises events such as circus days for children with diabetes and information work for families. The foundation says its work is funded entirely by donations and that it runs with lean structures. Its services are offered free of charge across Germany, subject to availability. The foundation was founded as a legal entity in 2024 and reports that its support work has been running since 2006.
