I thought the consensus was here that it depends on the country. In Germany, I see mostly the "Kita" (Kindertagesstätte) structure which in the same institution enrols age 0-6 in different departments or groups, and a lot offer afterschool supervision (Hort). This is easily expressed with the min_age + max_age tag, and some folks use after_school=yes.For the German situation, KiTa and Hort should/could well be tagged with childcare, but "Krippe"? And if we decide to tag a Krippe (creche/nursery) the same as a Hort or KiTa, but with age tags, isn't that inconsistent with Kindergarten? From my point of view, Hort and KiTa are both childcare places which extend beyond the times of kindergarten and school (and are after those, typically), while a Krippe is for babies up to 3 years and is more like a Kindergarten, apart from the age. It would really be much more logical and easier to introduce / accept nurseries (there's a reason there is a specific term for this in language, no?), then throw most but not all of "child-related-stuff" in the same cauldron where you will have to dig for age group and other specfic tags in order to make sense of it.
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.
