Educational concept

For us, education is a way of giving children the opportunity to develop into self-confident and happy individuals. Our children see the world as an endless space of learning and growing. Our aim is to equip them with the skills they need for their future lives. In doing so, we respond sensitively to their individual needs in order to promote their positive self-image and their ability to be independent. We recognise the moments when a child needs support to overcome new challenges and are there to lend a helping hand.

Our children have access to a learning environment that is rich in experiences and offers age-appropriate adventures. We ask questions, create challenges, provide encouragement and support them in finding answers. The activities and projects selected by our educational staff reflect the interests and abilities of our children and encourage their thirst for knowledge and discovery.

In addition to planned projects and activities, we attach great importance to free play in our daycare centre. This gives our children the freedom to decide for themselves who they want to play with, what they want to play with and how long they want to play for. Free play is of crucial importance for their development, as it allows them to process experiences, try things out and develop an understanding of themselves and their environment. It encourages socialising, friendship building and the ability to manage conflict and compromise. During free play, their language, motor and cognitive skills are practised through play and their social and emotional development is supported.

For us, parents are their children's experts. A regular exchange of experiences between home and the daycare centre is of great importance to us and goes without saying. The development of each individual child is regularly documented and discussed with parents at fixed intervals.
