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 €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.

Active Days, Play, and Laughter – The Taikapolku Way
In addition to our focus on physical activity, we provide a diverse range of activities in line with the early childhood education curriculum. Our daily activities include theater performances, arts and crafts, painting sessions, and of course, time for rest and relaxation.
At Taikapolku, pedagogy is present in every moment of the day. It’s about pausing together to explore and wonder—whether counting peas in a salad or playing with colors while painting. We cherish every unhurried moment spent talking, playing, and laughing—discovering the world together.
