Warm, Small-Group Early Education for Ages 2–6

Happy Toddlers is a private English-language early childhood education unit with 28 places for children aged 2–6.

We support each child's growth with a holistic, play-based approach that follows the Finnish National Core Curriculum.

Our learning environment is joyful, safe, and stimulating, and children naturally absorb English through daily interaction and activities.

Happy Toddlers was established in 1993 and is located in Nuottaniemi, Espoo.

We operate as a non-profit organization supported by our active parents' association.

No English Skills Required

Children do not need English skills when they join.

Our goal is to prepare children to continue their education in:

• English comprehensive schools

While we focus on English language development, we do not provide Finnish-language instruction from the very beginning.
