The article examines key regulatory and legal acts of Germany that shape the foundations of preschool education and the organization of early childhood development. Their impact on ensuring the accessibility and quality of educational services, supporting inclusion, professional training, and continuous development of educators is outlined. Special attention is paid to the achievements of German preschool education in organizing language training, addressing regional disparities in access to educational institutions, reducing ethnic educational inequality, and introducing innovative approaches to education, including individualized approaches to each child and digitalization of preschool education. The article stresses the importance of utilizing German experience to reform Ukraine’s regulatory framework, enhance educational process management, expand accessibility for children with special needs, and improve education quality through innovations. It concludes that Germany's experience can serve as a basis for improving preschool education in Ukraine, particularly in the context of its integration into the European educational space.
