Pilke Kielo is a small and homelike nature-oriented daycare centre for 30 children in Simonkylä, Vantaa.

Daycare centre Kielo is located within a walking distance from forests, parks and beautiful landscapes around three small lakes. In the wintertime, the surroundings offer excellent opportunities for sled sliding, skiing and skating. At the nature-oriented daycare centre, the children learn a positive attitude towards nature, outdoor activities and a sustainable lifestyle.

Kielo provides high-quality child-centred early childhood education and care in a welcoming atmosphere. We encounter each child genuinely, taking account of their individual needs. Our operation is characterised by an unhurried atmosphere, the joy of active life and good humour. The operation is based on play, common activities and paying attention to the children’s ideas. Everyday phenomena experienced and perceived by the children form the cornerstone of learning. Imagination, recycling, regular nature trips and the use of nature’s gifts as part of play and learning are an integral part of the everyday life at Kielo.
