About

The daycare Lenzi offers a safe and caring environment for children while their parents are at work. The aim of the centre is to support the children’s social, emotional and creative development in a structured and nurturing setting. The daycare looks after children from the age of 3 months up to 6–7 years. The team provides a structured daily programme including singing, storytelling, handicrafts, painting, theatre play, cooking and baking. A strong focus is on spending time outdoors to teach the children more about nature. The project also includes a central kitchen where lunch for five different daycare centres is prepared.
