Pilke Merikatti is a small day care center in Espoo
Pilke Merikatti offers warm-spirited and high-quality bilingual early childhood education to children aged 0-5 years in the Espoo district of Kivenlahti.
Pilke’s language-oriented daycare center Merikatti provides high-quality child-centered early childhood education and care for children aged 0–5 years at a warm-spirited daycare center. In our language group we offer English-Finnish bilingual early childhood education according to the Finnish National Core Curriculum for Early Childhood Education and Care. Children learn English through daily interactions, games, stories, and songs. The language rich environment aims to benefit from a child’s natural early ability to learn languages and to awaken joy in learning and experimenting with language. Simultaneously it offers a natural environment for nurturing multicultural awareness and building a strong foundation for a life-long positive attitude to learning.
Our days consist of playing both indoors and outdoors, trips and all kinds of activities, such as exercise and music. You are welcome to come and see for yourself!
