Our daycare center uses a service voucher from the city of Espoo. Read more here!
The client fee is between €0 and €311 per month, which is the same as in municipal early childhood education.
The fee is determined based on the value of the service voucher, which depends on the family size, income, and the child’s early childhood education hours.
The daycare participates in the City of Espoo’s pilot program offering 20 hours of free early childhood education per week for 5-year-old children. For more information, please contact the daycare Manager.
You can apply at any time and get started quickly.

A cheerful sports day-care centre in Laajalahti
Our spacious daycare facilities give children room to move and play as much as they like, but also allow for quiet and peaceful small group play.
There is also the possibility of pre-school education. Ask the manager for more information.
The varied joys of exercise
The focus on physical activity is realized in daily routines through outings, outdoor play, weekly musical movement sessions, and guided exercise activities.
We also explore a wide variety of sports, such as football, ice hockey, and cycling. In addition, children have the opportunity to take part in basic art education provided by the Espoo Dance Institute.

Active hiking in the local countryside
Diversified activities in line with the early childhood education and care plan
Of course, there are also other varied activities such as singing sessions, theatre performances, arts and crafts and painting sessions, not to mention rest periods. The pedagogy of everyday life is present in every moment of the daycare. It is about stopping together and wondering about things; counting peas in the salad and playing with colours while painting. We cherish every unhurried moment we get to spend talking, playing and goofing off; exploring the world together.
