Our reviews

"This was revealing for Maël... The team makes sure of his fulfillment at a decisive moment for his development : the result is simply amazing."

Mael's parents • second year pupil

"As parents, it's the perfect nursery school, with an involved and pleasant team: every morning, we drop Beatrice off with confidence. Her smile when we come to pick her up is priceless!”

Beatrice's mother • first year pupil

"The educational activities are numerous considering enjoyment and art, synonymous with child's fulfillment."

Marine's mother • last year pupil

"We are French and don't speak English at all: bilingualism at school is a huge plus. Our daughter understands everyday words in English yet."

Mylene's mother • last year pupil

"Teachers are invested and passionated: they individualize, encourage and reassure each child throughout the day, teaching them social life rules and gradual autonomy."

Giulia's mother • first year pupil

"The staff is attentive and very involved: activities are valuable and numerous. English learning, respect for others and children's growth are important to them."

Romie's father • second year pupil

"A great and attentive team, who develops both children's autonomy and team spirit in a bilingual context, always with respect."

Romane's mother • last year pupil
