Piikinmäki daycare

Piikinmäki daycare center is a bright and cozy daycare center with 121 places and five groups of children. Our daycare center, which was completed in 2011, offers day care to children who regularly need round-the-clock care. In addition, we act as a back-up care center for children who occasionally need round-the-clock care.

In addition to the administrative director, six early childhood education teachers, 16 early childhood nannies, a special assistant and a family day care substitute work in our daycare center. We also work closely with a special early childhood education teacher.

Child care shifts for an entire care week (Mon–Fri) must be reported Custodian's eBusiness - service by 24:XNUMX on Monday of the previous week.

  • We are prepared to operate around the clock, every day of the week. Our daycare center is usually closed on Christmas and Midsummer, and if no night care has been booked for the children in advance.

  • High-quality early childhood education regardless of the time of day!

    We want to offer the child high-quality early childhood education so that he has the best possible conditions for growth, development and learning. All children have the right to a comfortable day at kindergarten, regardless of the time of day. Our goal is a healthy child.

    The values ​​defined in the basics of the early childhood education plan (the independent value of childhood, growing as a person, the rights of the child, the diversity of families and a healthy and sustainable lifestyle) form the basis of our activities. In our unit, we also take into account the values ​​of the city of Riihimäki through the joint strategy of Riihimäki early childhood education.

    Educational cooperation, discussion and togetherness!

    In early childhood education, we cooperate with parents, and it is parents who are the best experts on their own children. In educational cooperation, we work together for the best of the child. In this cooperation, mutual flexibility, caring and equal encounters are emphasized.
