Meet our Management
I have worked as an early childhood educator for 11 years in the municipality of Cologny. I participated in the opening of the daycare center ‘Les Jardins de la Gradelle’ before taking on the management of the facility. Building on my experience and my CAS in practice analysis, I place great importance on fostering communication and the well-being of everyone within the organization. These elements are essential for creating a harmonious and nurturing environment for each child.
Caring for a child’s development first and foremost means caring for the relationship.
