Kisapuisto Early Childhood Education and Care Centre

Kisapuisto's early childhood education unit is located in South Hervanta on the grounds of the old Kisapuisto Early Childhood Education and Care Centre and school. Our early childhood education unit offers early childhood education for children aged 0-5 in twelve children's groups. Two of these groups are integrated special groups. We are open on weekdays from 6:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and, if necessary, from 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.

The premises of our early education unit are divided into two floors. On both floors there are facilities for six home areas. In addition, there is a dining room and a gym on the ground floor. In our unit, we have invested in versatile and adaptable spaces, so that the learning environments serve the children's needs in the best possible way. We work in small groups, and the facilities enable smooth working in small groups. The children eat and go outside in stages, so that a calm atmosphere is maintained even in the shared spaces. In our facilities, we have tried to take into account the number of sensory stimuli and opportunities for children to calm down have been created. We have tried to leave the original nature in our outdoor areas, which encourages children to play, explore and exercise.

Our activities are based on the national early childhood education plan and the children's individual needs and interests. In our unit's operations, we place particular emphasis on supporting interaction and emotional skills as well as language skills. Our central operating method is play, which promotes the child's development, learning and well-being and brings joy to the child. Through play, the child can go on a journey of imagination to different situations, feelings and thoughts. The employees of the early childhood education unit help and support the child in the world of play.
