Our Values and Philosophy
YOUR SECOND FAMILY
We believe that the right attitude from our staff and the lowest possible staff turnover are essential, as this is the only way for the children to develop a close relationship with their caregivers.
HEALTHY FOOD
We deliberately do not have any catering. Our chefs plan the menus, do the grocery shopping, and prepare the food, freshly every day, including baby food.
LEARNING WITHOUT PRESSURE TO PERFORM
Children learn in a fun and playful way and receive individual encouragement.
Kids' mini-meditation, projects, fine motor skills, and a baking day are also on the agenda.
We work with portfolios and hold regular progress reviews.
Every Friday is prekindergarten.
ALL INCLUSIVE
With the exception of a bottle for water and milk powder you do not need to bring anything. We have everything else ready for your little one (food, fruit, toiletries, diapers, tooth brush, sun cream, etc.).
We always put the child's well-being first and only use high-quality products.
GERMAN-ENGLISH
The main language at KITA BÄRLIS is German/Swiss German. VILLA BÄRLIS Im Eisernen Zeit 31 is bilingual German-English.
Children learn foreign languages through play.
PROMOTING
CREATIVITY
Music lessons also take place every week.
The older children can enjoy hip hop, ballet or private piano lessons.
DAILY OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES
And twice a week we have a "sports day", when we go to the gym.
Once a week is our traditional "World Explorer Day", when we spend the whole day out and about.
HOMELY AND COZY
We have lovingly renovated rooms.
Our garden playground (over 250 square meters at each location) invites children to play and picnic.
Parents have exclusive parking spaces in front of the daycare center for drop-off and pick-up.
The nearest public transportation stop is in the immediate vicinity.
FOREST AND NATURE GROUP
We have our own forest and nature group!
A forest hut serves as our retreat during bad weather.
Mondays are "Farm and Zoo Day", and Thursdays are "Adventure Park Day".
LASTING IMPRESSIONS
You can browse through photos and videos of the children on our website (in the protected parents' area).
PURZELBAUM KITA
KITA BÄRLIS is a «Purzelbaum KiTa».
"Purzelbaum KiTa" is an official recognition from the city of Zurich for a diverse range of exercise and healthy food options.
