Early childhood education plays an important role for Barnavårdsföreningen 

Barnavårdsföreningen’s social mission is to support families with children in their everyday lives. Early childhood education creates the foundation for a good and safe childhood and supports families by strengthening parenthood. 

– Barnavårdsföreningen wants to help ensure sufficient Swedish-language services in early childhood education, and we now look forward to opening our first daycare in Espoo, says Barnavårdsföreningen’s Executive Director, Pia Sundell.

Barnavårdsföreningen already operates two daycares in Helsinki: Tallbo daghem and Tölö daghem. Barnavårdsföreningen is Finland’s oldest child protection organization and has provided early childhood education since 1910.
