Tiny Wonders
Bilingual daycare in Ruoholahti, Helsinki
"Let the child be the scriptwriter,
the director, and the actor
in his own play"
- by Magda Gerber
At Tiny Wonders, we believe that children are the architects of their own learning.
We create an environment where children’s interests, curiosities, and choices guide their experiences. Through play, exploration, and creativity, they shape their own learning journey!
Our values
Tiny Wonders’ values are built around the Finnish curriculum and the Finnish culture in general. But above all, they come from the families and their children. Our qualified educators also bring their own professional expertise and shared values, ensuring that every decision is made with the child’s best interest at heart. We work together, considering everyone as an active participant in the child’s learning and development.
These values were written by our families, and they guide us every day in our teaching and care.
Our premises,
a space designed by and for our little explorers!
Our Educational Approach
🇫🇮🇬🇧 Bilingual pedagogy
Our bilingual teaching helps children thrive in both Finnish and English. We use each language according to each child’s needs and level, supporting them to develop the skills to confidently enter a Finnish- or English-speaking school.
⭐ Pedagogical best practices
We use Finland’s Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC) curriculum. At our daycare, we create an environment where every child can grow, explore, and thrive through meaningful daily experiences.
Learning through play: At our daycare, children learn new skills naturally through hands-on play and exploration.
Strong emphasis on well-being: We prioritize each child’s emotional and physical well-being by creating a safe and nurturing environment.
Outdoor education & nature connection: We spend time outside every day, helping children learn and grow close to nature.
Focus on social and emotional skills: We support children in building cooperation, empathy, and confidence through guided social interactions.
👣 Personalized learning path
We believe every child’s journey is unique. That’s why we work together with families to create an individual plan. This is a good opportunity to highlight the child’s strengths and sets shared goals for their learning and wellbeing during the term. The child’s thoughts, interests, and needs are always at the heart of this process. At the end of each term, the objectives are evaluated together with the family to support continuous growth.
👥 Multiprofessional cooperation
We are working as a team with our different strengths, knowledge and expertise to achieve together common goals. We are building trustful and quality interactions with the guardians to promote joint commitment to children’s development. We are also cooperating with many other professionals in the field of early childhood education.
📲 A digital tool for tracking children’s development
Finnish pedagogical management solution, Kindiedays, connects the daycare and home and shows the daily developmental progress of your child’s learning.
