Susanna Särkelä Daycare Manager

Touhula Helmiina is a daycare centre located in Savari, Ylivieska.

Touhula Helmiina daycare centre’s pedagogical theme is Nature. In Early Education and Care of Touhula Nature daycare centres, we are implementing experimental environment education. We strengthen children’s positive relationship with nature and their responsibilities as responsible citizens, as well as guide them in creating a sustainable lifestyle. Hiking and exploring environment are important in the everyday life of Touhula Nature daycare centres. We see that nature has a calming effect and stimulates children’s rich imagination. Also varied physical exercises promote children’s wellbeing and lay a foundation for healthy and active lifestyle. We emphasize the importance of experimental learning in nature. We create space and time for children’s own ideas and learning environmental responsibility. We are learning new things about nature all the time, and we support children’s enthusiasm and their ability to live in the moment and enjoy nature. We do small but brave everyday acts in order to help animals and nature. In our Touhula Nature daycare centres, children are developed into citizens, who take good care of our environment and themselves.
