Pilke Playschool Kalasatama
The 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 €445/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.
Our communication and information channel between home and daycare centre is Daisy. Through Daisy, we communicate, for example, about the daycare centre’s events and news.
Families use Daisy to report care appointments and absence notifications, among other things.
