English-language early childhood education in Kauniainen – also a Finnish-speaking group
Playschool Kauniainen (formerly ICEC Kauniainen) opened in August 2021 in a new log building at Kasavuorentie 6, 02700 Kauniainen.
Playschool Kauniainen is an English-language daycare where children have an excellent opportunity to learn and immerse themselves in the English language. We are happy and proud of our close-knit community, where educators, children, and families together create a warm and encouraging environment. Our educators work closely with families to ensure that every child feels valued.
A Finnish-speaking group will also start in the daycare in autumn 2025. Apply now!
Active outdoor adventures
We actively explore the outdoors so that children can broaden their worldview and learn new things. Every week, we embark on adventures to places such as the local swimming hall and nearby forests. In addition, we frequently visit various museums, giving children the chance to experience culture and history in an interactive way.
A close and warm community
We believe in the power of community and regularly organize evening events where families and children can join in the fun and strengthen their sense of belonging. These events offer an excellent opportunity to meet others, share experiences, and create unforgettable memories.
Playschool Kauniainen is more than just a daycare; we are a close and warm community. We look forward to welcoming you and your family to our lively and friendly daycare!
