Pedagogical concept
Our Educational Concept – Learning with Trust and Joy
At Kids Chalet, we focus on loving, respectful, and child-centred care. Our educational concept is based on the approaches of Emmi Pikler and the Australian Early Learning Framework (EYLF) to create a safe, stimulating, and bilingual environment where children can grow and thrive.
Emmi Pikler – Autonomy and Dignity
Emmi Pikler’s approach promotes free movement development, respectful caregiving, and independent learning. Children are given the time and space to develop at their own pace. Through mindful interactions and a safe environment, we support their natural curiosity and self-reliance.
EYLF – Holistic Education
The Australian Early Learning Framework focuses on the principles of Being, Belonging & Becoming, which promote emotional well-being, social integration, and individual development. At our daycare, we implement this through play-based learning, cultural diversity, and participatory education.
Bilingual Care & Mixed-Age Groups
Our unique concept integrates a German-English immersion, allowing children to acquire both languages naturally. Mixed-age groups enable children to learn from each other, take responsibility, and develop social skills in a nurturing environment.
Gentle Transition with the Berlin Model
Starting daycare is a significant step for every child. With the Berlin Model, we ensure a gradual and gentle transition, adapting to each child’s individual pace. In the first days, a parent remains present as a secure attachment figure. Gradually, separation periods are extended until the child builds trust in their new environment. Through sensitive caregiving and close collaboration with parents, we create a smooth and supportive start to daycare life.
A Safe and Inspiring Environment
Through structured daily routines, thoughtful transitions, and qualified professionals, we create an atmosphere where children feel safe, build trust, and reach their full potential.
At Kids Chalet, children experience warm, respectful care—a strong foundation for their future.
