Elisa Rauas Daycare Manager

Touhula VekaraVuori is an adventure-themed daycare centre in Tillinmäki, Espoo. The daycare operates in a facility that binds together elderly care and daycare services. This opens up completely new ways of working together – grandma’s place is in the same building!

At Touhula VekaraVuori we concentrate on nature and environmental education. Sorting our waste carefully is one way of implementing sustainability into our daily activities. The key is to learn and try new things in an experimental way. Often we go on adventures or hikes to the forest or other surrounding nature.

There are three groups of children at Touhula VekaraVuori. Part of our yard is intact forest that makes different kinds of games and plays possible.
