ABOUT US
Early childhood, a center of common interest which brought Nicolas and Nadège together. Their ambition around education and the contribution to young children made it possible to give birth to a small institution which has grown into a big one ... After years of reflection in the field and experience, La Petite Ecole Les Tulipiers is today the subtle fruit of a place of learning and benevolence that helps each child develop in preschool.
In 2024, after years of sharing and learning with children and their families, Nadège and Nicolas decided to pass the baton to Krenare Tissot, to invest in new projects.
This place is permeated with specialists in early childhood from 0 to 5 years old. This institution is private and French-speaking and has chosen to welcome children from 2 to 5 years old in restricted hours. The operating permit was issued by the SASAJ (Day care authorization and monitoring service) and the place remains in close collaboration with this service.

pedagogy
A SCHOOL IS ABOVE ALL A MATTER OF PEDAGOGY.
WITH US, IT IS ABOUT AN ACTIVE AND DIFFERENTIATED PEDAGOGY! THE CHILD IS THE ACTOR OF HIS LEARNING THROUGH REFLECTION, CONSTRUCTION, PLAY, WHILE ARTICULATING GROUP ACTIVITIES AND INDIVIDUALIZED WORK.

OWN TO EACH

The material


The Educator
Not a master, not an instructor, a guide whose mission is to set up and facilitate learning. He is personally involved in providing knowledge.
It is through his sharing, his curiosity, his desire, that children follow him on the paths of discovery and wonder. The important thing is to give the child access to the pleasure of understanding.
By respecting the individuality and the rhythm of each one because each child is unique and advances at his own rate of development, it is essential to take time for each one, to adapt to his sensitivity, to his capacities.

A game to play, to reassure yourself, to have fun. But also the game that gives meaning that is created through interactions with peers and with the educator. Play is the child's job.
MEANS
To learn in groups and individually, precise operating rules are needed.
Thanks to a structured framework and rituals that give children daily reference points. In order to be amazed, interested, understand, think, grow, they need themes that give meaning to the year and that are declined by month, week, day, which pushes to grow and to emancipate.
a day's schedule
To think of "learning activities" it seems undeniable to us to include them in an ordinary day which respects the rhythm of the young child. This is why meals, treatments and moments of rest are an integral part of a day at La Petite Ecole Les Tulipiers. They are reflected as key moments. Sharing a meal together and observing what you eat IS an activity in itself.
The schedule of our short day is therefore ideal for a good capacity to receive learning

SCHEDULE
In order to have a positive impact on group dynamics, it took several years and experiences for the duo to find the right schedule for such a particular location. Short days, which contain all the necessary elements without exhausting the children, allow for cohesion in the groups that grow together and therefore teachings that are more easily transmitted. The Wednesday break allows the children to be in their family environment and to recharge their batteries.
Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday
Day: 8:30 a.m. - 3:30 p.m.

KRENARE TISSOT
Directrice - Educatrice sur le terrain
Active depuis plus de dix-sept ans dans le domaine de la petite enfance et diplômée de l’École supérieure d’éducateurs de Genève en 2014, Krenare a accumulé une riche expérience dans diverses institutions publiques. Passionnée et déterminée, elle a toujours cherché à mettre en avant une approche pédagogique centrée sur l'épanouissement et le respect de l'enfant
Convaincue que l'intérêt et le plaisir de l'enfant, nourris par l'enthousiasme et l'engagement de l'éducateur, sont des moteurs puissants d'apprentissage, Krenare met un point d'honneur à poursuivre le travail des créateurs de ce merveilleux lieu en développant un environnement riche et stimulant où l’enfant apprend par le jeu, avec plaisir et au contact des autres, et où tout est pensé pour que chaque enfant puisse développer ses prédispositions créatrices et son estime de soi. Elle œuvre également pour que la Petite École des Tulipiers soit un espace de formation pour les futurs professionnels, où les adultes développent leur disponibilité et leur capacité à créer un cadre bienveillant et enrichissant.
Grâce à cette vision, Krenare aspire à faire de cet établissement une référence en matière d’éducation de la petite enfance, où chaque individu, qu’il soit enfant ou adulte, trouve les ressources nécessaires pour s’épanouir pleinement.
TEAM WORK
Thinking that nothing has an impact on children is obviously wrong because the adult that we are stems from the child that we have been. We are very vigilant to the adult-child interactions of our team members.
La Petite Ecole Les Tulipiers is constantly training adults for a course or a professional project. Beside this, committed professional people have a benevolent educational attitude to hold in order
to be able to put our pedagogy into practice.
Professionals are constantly evolving (conferences, training, interviews, projects). To carry out our educational project, we have acquired a number of supervisory staff above current standards.
