"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.

🇫🇮🇬🇧 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. We promote and support child’s best interest, individual skills and needs. With children from many different cultures in our daycare, multiculturalism is an inherent part of our daily life and activities.
🌟 School culture that empowers
Interest and passion for learning unleashed through a daycare culture where being empowered, innovative, and collaborative are at the core – while having fun!
🌳 Holistic learning environment
A safe, holistic environment empowers children by developing the whole child through fun, hands on, academic, socio-emotional, cognitive, adaptive, cultural, and physical activities. It provides freedom and autonomy with guidance from the teachers.
🚀 Developing future skills
Our future-ready early years education develops important future skills of collaboration, creativity, critical thinking, and communication to prepare children for their next stage of education.
Our Educational Approach
🧘🏽♀️ Mindfulness activities
Guiding children to be present in the moment. Age-appropriate activities increase focus, reduce stress levels, increase learning potential, and help eliminate bullying.
🚂 Learning through purposeful play
Learning life skills such as exploring, identifying, risk-taking, sharing, turn-taking, negotiating, and leadership while building their friendships through interactions.
👣 Personalized learning path
Each child is unique. Our curriculum, experienced staff, excellent student-teacher ratio and technology enable our daycare to provide truly personalized education for each child.
📲 Pedagogical management solution to track child’s development
Finnish pedagogical management solution, Kindiedays, connects the daycare and home and shows the daily developmental progress of your child’s learning.
👥 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.
