Childcare priority
Children whose parents live in the municipality of Chêne-Bourg.
The Le Polichinelle nursery school is located on the ground floor of a residential building and benefits from a directly adjoining playground. The Polichinelle team welcomes children on a half-day basis and supports them in their various learning experiences and discoveries. The multi-age approach, meaning groups of children of different ages, allows for the development of richer social skills.
The main educational aims are:
-
A warm and secure welcome that fosters children’s emotional and social development.
-
An active pedagogical approach that encourages independence, curiosity and respect for each child’s individual pace.
-
A wide range of activities that enable children to discover, explore and experiment.
The values that underpin our ongoing reflections on the educational and institutional project are:
-
Enjoyment
-
Kindness and respect
-
Listening and communication
-
Independence, freedom and choice

daycare manager
Passionate about early childhood education, I place great importance on building close, trusting relationships with families, as well as on teamwork that ensures continuity and a high-quality welcome on a daily basis. After obtaining my qualification as an early years educator in Geneva in 2010, I worked with children in various settings across the canton and completed a range of continuing professional development courses. In particular, I have developed my skills in communication, leadership and coaching in order to give meaning to my work and to carry it out with enjoyment.
