Enkku is a private day-care center in Mikkeli, owned by the Mikkeli Finnish American Society. The day-care center is located near downtown Mikkeli, which enables the use of a versatile learning environment throughout the year. Culture and sports services as well as the nature of the outdoor route at Kalevankangas are a short walk away from the day-care.

Enkku offers good quality early childhood education and preschool education for families with children. Enkku has two facilities: Pikku-Enkku (Little-Enkku) offers pre educational activities for children aged 0-3 and Enkku for children aged 3-6. A professional staff of kindergarten teachers and practical nurses are responsible of the children’s care and education.

The English language and learning it are tightly connected to the themes of the Enkku day-care center’s plan of action. An active vocabulary grows gradually and the children learn to express themselves in English. Learning happens through play: English songs and games are an important part of learning a foreign language. Language is not taught as such but is used as a way or teaching. English language is a natural part of daily activities at Enkku.

We are enthusiastic, we care and respect each other.
