Our groups

At our kindergarten, we believe that children thrive best in homogeneous age groups, where they can grow, learn, and play alongside peers at a similar stage of development. Our three groups and the pre-school welcome children from age 3 until they start school, ensuring a nurturing environment that supports both their age-related milestones and individual personality traits.

Each group is designed to foster age-appropriate development, helping children build confidence, social skills, and cognitive abilities at their own pace. By considering both age and personal characteristics, we create an enriching and supportive atmosphere where every child can flourish.

Pre-school

Our school preparation group, the Wise Owl, is for children aged 6-7, where two educators and one teaching assistant work with the children.
The work of our educators is supported by a special education teacher, psychologist, speech therapist, and tale therapist. This professional team monitors and supports the children’s development from the beginning.

As part of the school preparation process, children are assessed at the age of 5, and based on the results of the assessment, the preparation process is planned. Regular consultations are held with parents regarding the results of the assessment and the experiences from the preparation. The school preparation sessions cover cognitive areas, graphomotoric development, and social skills.

"My 4-year-old son transferred mid-year from a state kindergarten to Szőlőszem, where we experienced true acceptance and a smooth transition." During the settling-in period, they fully respected our child's pace, for which we are especially grateful. The teachers are incredibly accepting and, even in the early days, gave Domonkos a lot of individual attention, which greatly helped him feel at home in the new environment. Since then, Domonkos has been going to kindergarten enthusiastically and sings English songs at home every day — to everyone's delight.

"I wholeheartedly recommend this kindergarten to every parent!" Both of my children attended here, and I can honestly say that choosing this kindergarten was the best decision. The teachers are not only professionally well-prepared, but they are also wholeheartedly present with the children – my kids went in smiling every day and came home excited to talk about their day. There is a wide variety of clubs and afternoon programs to choose from, which really add color to everyday life. What truly stands out: when it was needed, my children received personalized, high-quality developmental support – all within a playful and loving environment. I am truly grateful for the years we spent here – the kindergarten gave us not only a sense of security but also an abundance of joy!

"What we love most about Szőlőszem is the warm, family-like atmosphere." Every teacher and caregiver knows our children by name — even the ones who aren't currently attending — and they always greet us with kind words. The group sizes are just right, so each child receives individual attention. The cooperation between parents and teachers is excellent. We’re happy to go each day, knowing our kids are in a balanced, nurturing environment and developing through a variety of engaging activities and programs. The excursions organized for the older groups are always fantastic (like trips to the Old Lake in Tata, the Danube Museum in Esztergom, castle walks, or apple picking) — the children absolutely love them!

In today’s world, it is a rare treasure to find such a loving, united, nurturing, value-driven, joyful, and peaceful little community as Szőlőszem." As a mother, it fills me with immense joy and peace of mind knowing that my little boy couldn’t be in better hands or a better place during his kindergarten years.

"If you want the very best for your child, Szőlőszem Kindergarten is the place to be!" The teachers care for every child with loving attention and dedicate a lot of time to them. Each themed week is full of amazing experiences that help the children learn so much about the world. Every service is of a high standard. They learn English through play, the events are fantastic, and they often go on walks and excursions. There's even a Szőlőszem Theater, which the children absolutely love. In short — our child adores it, and so do we!

"We've been daily visitors at Szőlőszem Kindergarten for nearly six years now." My older daughter, who is now in 2nd grade, started here from the very beginning, and it gave her an incredibly strong foundation for starting school. In her final kindergarten year, she participated in ‘pre-school’ activities, which really helped her get used to the structure and rhythm of school lessons. Over the years, the teachers and caregivers have become like family to us. My younger daughter started as a “veteran” in the familiar environment. She loves English, the themed weeks, special yoga classes, and the story therapy sessions — the latter is something even her big sister would happily come back for! The teachers and caregivers are incredibly kind and truly dedicated to the children. It always gave me peace of mind knowing my children spent most of their day with such caring people. They spend a lot of time outdoors, go on trips, and enjoy all kinds of special programs (apple picking, Father’s Day, excursions by bus). Activities take place in small groups, in both English and Hungarian. If you're looking for a warm, joyful kindergarten or nursery — you've found it. I can wholeheartedly recommend it to everyone!

"A chapter is soon coming to a close for us — my little boy is graduating this year from Szőlőszem Kindergarten, where not only his nursery years began, but where he truly received wings to fly." I look back on these past years with a grateful heart. Care, attention, professional dedication, and value-based education were present in every moment. This kindergarten didn’t just “prepare” him — it laid the foundation for his curiosity, confidence, and openness — all of which helped him gain acceptance into an international school. Thank you to the Szőlőszem team for not only teaching the children, but truly understanding them. You’ve given him a start that will last a lifetime.

Both of my children began their journey in the Szőlőszem Nursery, where they took their first steps into community life. Our initial worries quickly disappeared, as it was clear from the very first days that the caregivers treated the little ones with great patience and empathy. The nursery provided a safe and friendly environment where our children could develop through play and gain a wealth of joyful experiences. We are especially grateful to the caregivers and nursery staff, who greeted the children with smiles every day and supported them in settling in, learning, and growing. What was most reassuring for us was the open and honest communication at all times. Since then, our children have continued on to the Szőlőszem Kindergarten groups, where—just like in the nursery—we have had many positive experiences. We are truly thankful to be part of this wonderful community.

Our family has chosen this kindergarten for the second time — our older son attended it first, and now our younger daughter goes here with great joy. As parents, we are truly grateful for the care, attention, and love our children have received in this institution. The kindergarten has a very warm, home-like atmosphere. The teachers genuinely love their work — it’s evident in everything they do: how they communicate with the children, organize activities, celebrations, and developmental games. We can see how the children grow up confident, happy, and socially open. The kindergarten places great emphasis on well-rounded development — physical, emotional, creative, and social. It is always clean, cozy, and safe here, which is incredibly important for the peace of mind of parents.

Endless flexibility and a family-centered approach! A comforting place full of love and joy, where children are nurtured and developed through fun and engaging activities. We are offered themed weeks in two languages, plus special classes like soccer, swimming, music, theater, field trips, family days, celebrations, and more! I wholeheartedly recommend it to all caring parents. 🥂💞

Наша родина вже вдруге обрала цей дитячий садочок — спочатку його відвідував старший син, а тепер сюди із задоволенням ходить молодша донька. Ми як батьки щиро вдячні за ту турботу, увагу та любов, які наші діти отримали в цьому закладі. Садочок має дуже теплу, домашню атмосферу. Вихователі справді люблять свою роботу — це відчувається в усьому: як вони розмовляють з дітьми, організовують заняття, святкування, розвиваючі ігри. Ми бачимо, як діти ростуть впевненими, щасливими і соціально відкритими. Садочок приділяє увагу всебічному розвитку: фізичному, емоційному, творчому та соціальному. А ще тут завжди чисто, затишно і безпечно, що дуже важливо для спокою батьків.
