About us

... creative from the very beginning!

Education and Relationships

In 2008, we set out to create a place where children could learn autonomously and exploratively. From the very beginning, we aimed to use the environment as the “third educator” to support the self-directed learning process of the children.

Our professionals are tasked with being companions and relationship builders for our children, working with professional closeness rather than well-intentioned distance. Our concept is based on open work, which provides children with a wider range of play options, playmates, and greater autonomy over the duration of their activities.
