A Small and Cozy Bilingual Music Daycare in Vallila
Pilke Music Daycare Paahtimo opened on Sturenkatu in Vallila in January 2021.
Daycare Paahtimo offers high-quality, child-centered early childhood education in a warm and welcoming setting, with spots for 33 children. In our daycare, every child is the superstar of their own life – just as they are.
Singing, Playing, and Rhyming in Finnish and English
The goal of our music-oriented daycare is to provide children with musical experiences, skills, and abilities, as well as moments of learning and success. We also aim to inspire a lifelong interest in music.
Our musical focus is reflected in our daily life as a love for music. We sing, play instruments, dance, and improvise in a joyful and encouraging atmosphere.
The daycare also regularly hosts music playgroups led by a music teacher.

Bilingual Early Childhood Education
Paahtimo offers extensive bilingual early childhood education in both Finnish and English in a cozy daycare environment. In our bilingual program, children explore familiar songs, rhymes, and concepts through singing and reflection in both languages, making it easy for them to get acquainted with English through play.
Bilingual early education lays the foundation for lifelong language learning. The goal is to spark children’s curiosity and willingness to explore languages in a multilingual environment.
