GroupsThe customer fee of the daycare is affected by the allowance for private care granted by the Social Insurance Institution Kela. After the private daycare allowance, our customer fee is a maximum of €325/month. The customer fee is possibly reduced by an income-related care supplement. Check Kela’s new income limits here.
To calculate the final customer fee via the Kela pages, you need the full daycare fee. This fee, as well as additional information, you can ask from the daycare manager.
Our daycare center offers 4 hours of free early childhood education for 5-year-olds, in addition to which the city of Helsinki supports families with 5-year-olds with 160 euros per month. Ask the kindergarten manager for more information.

Close Collaboration with Parents
Our operations are based on educational partnership. Together with parents, we assess what is best for their child and commit to supporting the child's growth, development, and learning. At Pilke Taikakuu, we believe that a safe environment fosters a positive outlook on life, a strong self-image, and healthy self-esteem.
A New Teaching Role: Ope+
At Taikakuu, an early childhood education teacher works in an innovative Ope+ role. This teacher strengthens the pedagogical activities across all child groups and is responsible for the daycare’s overall educational development. You can read more about this new teaching role here.
Fairytale Music Club on Thursdays
Taikakuu also hosts a Fairytale Music Club on Thursday mornings at 9:30, during daycare hours. In this magical session, children dive into the world of storytelling and explore the wonders of music. For more information, please contact the daycare director.
The Song of Taikakuu – Welcome to Pilke Taikakuu!
"There’s a gate and a slide, by the forest in Kivikko.
We play music, we sing along, and together we laugh so strong.
This feels like fun, as if we’ve always been friends.
Tai-Tai-Taikakuu, we swing high and slide down too.
Tai-Tai-Taikakuu, where we play cat and car games too.
This feels like fun, as if we’ve always been friends."
– A song created by the children and educators of Taikakuu 🎶
