Who we are
Who we are
Our first crèche, created over 30 years ago, is a family place with qualified staff dedicated to the well-being of your children.
The crèche is managed directly by the European Parliament on behalf of the European Institutions based in Luxembourg and who are members of the Social Activities Committee (CAS). It welcomes children aged 3 to 42 months.
The CPE 2 crèche is located at 3, rue A. Borschette, L-1246 Kirchberg.
The nursery's capacity is around 111 children divided into 8 groups:
• 3 groups for babies from 3 to 18/20 months;
• 5 groups for children from 18/20 to 42 months
Group 1 - Globe-Trotters
Group 2 - Explorers
Group 3 - Travelers
Group 4 - Builders
Group 5 - Researchers
Group 6 - Readers
Group 7 - Actors
Group 8 - Creators
Each group is placed under the responsibility of three nursery nurses or educators assisted, if necessary, with additional and occasional help. The schedules and staff attendance within the groups are adapted to the daily needs of children, while covering a wide range of opening hours.
Information
Each group of the crèche is a place open to the parents of the children of this group. The relationship between the educational team and each parent is conceived as a partnership with the complementarity of roles and skills, aimed at the development and well-being of the child. Everything is being done to gradually establish a relationship of trust, a beneficial situation for the child who is reassured by the agreement existing between his parents and his nursery nurses.
Regular dialogue with parents, based on respect and the dynamics of each family, constitutes a fundamental starting point for understanding family educational action, for creating a spirit of collaboration and sharing of responsibility .
To regard the child as an individual and to respect him necessarily implies respect for his culture and in particular his language. This principle is even more important in the multicultural and multilingual environment which is that of our crèche. The crèche's population includes 27 different nationalities, or even more with unions outside the EU and some children live in a bilingual, even trilingual, family environment.
Our choice :
French is used as the lingua franca, while the other languages are valued in the individual adult / child or child / child relationships.
