Our groups

Four stages of growth and learning, each with its own pace and tailored program.

Learning through play, exploration and real experiences

Our curriculum is designed so children learn by experimenting, not memorising. Play is the main learning tool — carefully observed, guided and enriched by our team.

Children are encouraged to explore, collaborate, solve simple situations and express their ideas and emotions — gradually developing communication and language, autonomy and self-confidence, social skills, creative and logical thinking, physical coordination and curiosity about the world.

What parents say

Real reviews from Google — 4.7 / 5 rating

Acorns Nursery is a kindergarten that truly puts the child at the centre. You can feel the dedicated care for every child, the respect and individual attention, and the environment is safe, warm and stimulating. My daughter comes every day with joy and has visibly evolved — both emotionally and educationally. I very much appreciate the way autonomy, self-confidence and free expression are encouraged, as well as the open and constant communication with parents.
