About us
We are a small private daycare located in central Helsinki surrounded by central park (Keskuspuisto) where we can enjoy Finnish nature and forest in all seasons.
Our international environment offers your child a creative and diverse learning settings.
We follow the Finnish Early Childhood Education curriculum which greatly emphasises learning through playing.
We are a bilingual kindergarten offering both English and Finnish
languages. English is our main language (75 %) and Finnish language enrichment (25%). We practice Finnish language in our selected daily activities ie. circle time, singing and reading.
Your child have the opportunity to learn both languages alongside one another in their own pace. Your child does not need to have prior English or Finnish knowledge to join us. Learning is best when having fun.
We ensure that each child feels safe in familiar surroundings with staff who genuinely care.
We emphasise the importance of friendship and treating each other with respect.
