A safe and joyful place for your lovely children

Our endeavor is to maintain a safe and happy environment for the children to spend their afternoons. During their time with us the children will be encouraged to grow, to be confident and independent learners.

Why us

The best early learning experience

Kindness

Kindness is undoubtedly one of the most important values that we can instill in children from an early age. Through it, children can also learn about the importance of patience, acceptance, understanding, and many more skills that will help them become more capable adults.

Creativity

This incredible capacity that the child has by nature will help him to be able to express himself in a unique way, develop his abstract thinking, be able to resolve conflicts and relate positively to the people around him.

Emotional

Emotion regulation refers to children's abilities to identify and manage their feelings. Children learn to use time to think, plan, and ultimately come up with an appropriate response in situations in which they experience strong feelings.

Innovation

We have several games that allow children to be innovative, with them they learn the value of patience and delight in the gratification of having waited and worked for their goals.

Day care Options

Age-specific support for every stage


MINIS

It is our group between 4 and 6 years, at this stage they quickly develop physical, social and mental skills. It is essential that at this stage the child learns to gain confidence in all areas of life, such as friendships, school activities and sports.


MAXIS

It is our group from 6 years onwards, at this stage the children are more independent, they have their own personality and tastes and decide on their own what they want to do, at this stage we remind them of the manners and good behavior that they must have in mind any place.
