Douces Maternelles is seven years old, and it's thanks to you!

Douces Maternelles is seven years old! Like with our children, time flies, but when we think about it, we realize that we've experienced so many stories with our teams and met wonderful families over all these years.

So, we wanted to make it a special moment, to share our story with you, where you have a special place, the place of the heart. Because our story has been written, above all, with and thanks to you over all these years.

Today, we want to share even more about what makes Douces Maternelles unique. To tell you everything that is important to us, moves us every day, and inspires us to keep moving forward to offer the best.

It takes a whole village to raise a child

It takes a whole village to raise a child": At Douces Maternelles, for 7 years, we have wholeheartedly embraced this proverb, fully involving All competent individuals to offer the best to children.

But let's get to what really matters to us on this anniversary date: our encounter with you, the parents, and your children. From the start in the design of our school, we aimed to create a story written by many. That's why the principle of respectful co-education is so dear to us. At Douces Maternelles, we love the time of transmission in the morning and evening on an individual level that we spend with you, and we are so happy when you come to the schools to tell your story to the children—about your country, your traditions, your profession, your passions—to further enrich the life experience. Over the past 7 years, we have seen parents come to share, and it's time to say a big thank you for your involvement.

A big thank you for your trust in letting your child thrive at Douces Maternelles. Every day, it lives and vibrates with all that fills us alongside our teams.

And, of course, what would Douces Maternelles be without our incredible team that accompanies us every day to offer the best to the children. To our eternal inquisitives who constantly renew themselves, to our gems of kindness, to our everyday magicians who, with their overflowing imagination, create incredible cognitive, motor, artistic, or sensory workshops. Many thanks for your presence and commitment alongside us, for your listening skills, and your thirst to transmit. You are the heart of Douces Maternelles, a truly big heart!

Sow the seeds of confidence and success in our children.

On this anniversary date, it's the perfect time for us to celebrate loudly and proudly the values that are dear to us: all forms of intelligence, cooperation, inclusion, trust, uniqueness, co-education, listening, kindness, curiosity, openness to others, ecology, the pleasure of learning. All the seeds that sow the success of children today and tomorrow based on a solid foundation for the unfolding of their full potential.

And for the future? We hope to keep the stars in our eyes, to see our active pedagogy unfold and resonate with families like yours while prioritizing quality and kindness. Already, a new school for the upcoming school year in Paris 10th. And the continuation to be written all together to continue to bring our village to life. We already look forward to the future, ALL TOGETHER!

So, here's to the long life of children's dreams, because well-nourished, they are the ones who will make the enlightened and committed citizens of tomorrow!

Very sincerely,
Anne Laure and Valentine
