About us
Daycare Daisy is an international, multicultural, English speaking daycare.
Here at Daycare Daisy we offer your child a safe and positive environment for learning. We offer quality childcare with daily routines mixed with a spontaneous and unhurried atmosphere.
We follow the new early education plan and preschool plan of Turku city. We observe children's play to find out their interests so that we can connect those to our teaching. This makes learning interesting for the children. We pick up most of the themes from their interests.
Our daycare follows the educational plan of the city of Turku:
Starting out
When a child starts here with no English language skills, we start by demonstrating with pictures and sounds and we read stories and sing songs. We gently encourage the children to use English. Parents evenings, meetings with parents and daily meetings are our way to co-operate with parents. Some of our employees speak only English, so that's our working language also with parents.
It is important that the child can speak his/her own mother tongue before he/she starts learning a foreign language. That is the reason, why we take children from 3 years and up to Daycare Daisy.

Our curriculum follows the regulations and laws of daycare and preschool. We offer a free English preschool education provided by the city of Turku.
