This is where the first step
towards a confident childhood begins.
A place where your child is loved, understood, and supported—every day
The period from 1 to 3 years of age is extremely important – this is when the foundations of independence, emotional stability, and social skills are laid. In our nursery group, we create an environment where children not only adapt, but also feel safe, loved, and supported.
What does your child get?
A warm and safe environment
in which trust in adults and first social skills are built.
Smooth and gentle adaptation
tailored to each child's rhythm
A holistic approach
focusing not only on physical needs, but also on emotional and sensory needs
A professional team
specially trained to work with young children
Daily activities
stimulating the senses, movement, speech, and emotional intelligence
Outdoor games and physical activity
every day
Screen-free environment
where the child's attention is focused on the real world, play, and human presence
Bilingual environment
where they learn both Bulgarian and English
Sensory development
because children learn through discovery, exploration and touch
Rhythmic movements
which develop the brain and prepare the foundations for learning
12 types of intelligence -
every child grows in their own way and needs individual support.
How do we work?
- We have an optimal number of twelve children in a group.
- We teach children hygiene habits, eating habits, dressing/undressing, organizing “my” world. All of this is in sync with their parents and the individual characteristics of each family – first or third child, cultural-international characteristics, “single” or extended family, family eating style and emotional-behavioral distinctiveness.
- We work according to an original program for overcoming stress and smooth socialization.
- We cover the mandatory educational standards according to the MNZ program developed by a team of authors: B. Kaleva, N. Stoykova, D. Dimitrov, and other prominent authors in the field.
- We include early foreign language training in English in the learning process.
- We partially teach using the Maria Montessori method.
- We offer speech therapy and psychological diagnostics.
- We use methods to preserve innate creativity and intuition.
- We conclude with a screening of 3-year-old children: level of self-care skills, physical coordination, gross and fine motor skills, language skills and spelling, cognitive skills and logic, communication skills, creative and emotional.

ADMISSION
At Svetlina, we believe that every family has its own timing. That is why admission to our nursery is year-round, subject to availability.
We know that the first separation from mom and dad is not just a step—it is a huge leap.
That is why we have created a gentle and attentive adaptation program that supports both the child and the parent.
With a lot of care, time, and individual attention, we make the beginning calm, safe, and natural.
