This is one of the most common problems that prevents customers from being able to use their Bosch washing machines, but luckily it can be deactivated very easily. Depending on the model of your Bosch washing machine, there are several ways that the child lock can be deactivated.

When the child lock is activated, there will be a key symbol on the display and all the washing machine buttons will be disabled.
To deactivate the child lock, press and hold the start button for three to five seconds. After this, you will hear an audible beep and the key symbol will disappear.
Press and hold the "rpm" and the "finished in" buttons
Another way to deactivate the child lock on some Bosch washing machine models is to press and hold the "rpm" and the "finished" in buttons together for approximately three seconds. After this, you will hear an audible beep and the key symbol will disappear.
Washing machines with touch screen display and a square button with a key symbol
If your Bosch washing machine has an advanced touch screen display, there should be an illuminated square button with a key symbol and 3 sec underneath it.
Hold this button down for three seconds. After that, the button will darken and you will hear an audible beep to indicate that the child lock has been deactivated.
