Nursery
Discoverers
0 to 1 Year Old
In Discoverers, we accompany our babies through a profoundly important stage: the beginning of their relationship with the world. In this group, every experience is designed to provide safety, affection, stimulation, and respectful guidance, understanding that learning begins with the first bonds, sensations, and everyday discovery.
Working Method
Work in Discoverers focuses on warm routines, early stimulation, sensory exploration, free movement, affectionate interaction, and close support. Each experience seeks to foster the baby’s physical, emotional, cognitive, and social development while respecting each child’s individual rhythm.
Through play, music, textures, colors, sounds, everyday language, and observation of their surroundings, babies begin to build confidence, curiosity, and connection with the world around them.

Learning Through Play
In Discoverers, playing is learning. Sensory play, movement, music, and daily interaction are the foundation through which babies begin to recognize their bodies, respond to stimuli, strengthen bonds, and explore with confidence.
Project-Based Learning
At this level, project-based learning is experienced through small discovery experiences: exploring water, sounds, animals, textures, nature, or colors. These are not formal projects, but guided experiences that awaken curiosity and connection with their surroundings.
Explorers
1 to 2 Years Old
In Explorers, boys and girls enter a wonderful stage: they no longer only discover the world, but begin to explore it with greater intention, movement, curiosity, and a desire for independence. It is a key moment for strengthening language, motor development, socialization, and autonomy.
Working Method
Our approach in Explorers combines guided play, active exploration, structured routines, sensory experiences, music, movement, and first spaces for group interaction. Teacher guidance supports emotional security while encouraging curiosity, communication, and the natural desire to learn.

Learning Through Play
Play is the main vehicle for learning in Explorers. Through hands-on activities, movement, songs, stories, cause-and-effect games, manipulative materials, and exploration of space, boys and girls develop cognitive, emotional, and social skills in a natural way.
Project-Based Learning
In Explorers, the project-based approach is adapted to their level through mini themed experiences: my body, my family, animals, means of transportation, colors, or nature. These proposals arise from observation, curiosity, and concrete exploration.
