There is always a reason having a specific term for different parts of 
childcare - it is simply easier to talk about a Krippe(nursery), 
Kindergarten, Hort(after school club) instead of a childcare with 
age_group 0-3, 4-6, 7-14.
And it is quite logical to take these terms as tags - in the first 
attempt ....
But is it really easier to end up with three different amenities - and 
so with different POIs - for a childcare which enrols all age groups?
Nevertheless the min or max age sometimes differs at the same sort of 
institution - so you may look e. g. after a hort but still have to check 
for the valid age anyway.
