Every child is unique to us: we meet children with sensitivity, listen to their thoughts, and respond to their initiatives with genuine presence. Our everyday life is filled with joy, encouragement, and doing things together. Positive pedagogy is reflected in praise, encouragement, and support for concentration.
Our goal is simple yet important: a warm encounter and a good day for every child. Our activities are based on linguistic awareness and appreciation of diversity. We recognize different languages, cultures, needs, and ways of being, and we create an environment where everyone is seen, heard, and understood.
In our activities, movement is a central part of learning and well-being. We explore nature and the built environment in diverse ways – forests, shores, parks, and sports facilities provide experiences and the joy of learning throughout the year.
Rödluvan daycare is a warm, bilingual daycare with extended hours, where everyday life is built around the needs of children and families. We provide early childhood education flexibly also in the evenings, nights, and weekends. To ensure the child’s overall well-being, we emphasize close cooperation with guardians.

Palosaari daycare is a bilingual and multicultural daycare where the joy of diversity and different traditions come together. We aim to highlight each individual’s strengths and make use of the diverse perspectives that multiculturalism brings, so that we can grow and develop together.We provide a daycare environment where your child can be themselves and develop according to their own abilities. With us, your child can use all their language resources and be part of a multilingual and multicultural environment. The languages of instruction are Swedish (Jollar, Kutter, Skutan) and Finnish (Paatit, Purtilot, Ankkurit, Kipparit).
As the daycare is located near university campuses, we naturally emphasize exploration, creativity, and technology in our everyday activities.
