AboutOUR LES MARRONNIERS NURSERY

Welcome to Les Marronniers – a bilingual French/English nursery in the heart of Vevey, where children aged 18 months to 4 years and educators learn and explore together every day. We welcome new arrivals to our cozy, educational cocoon all year round, and accompany them along the stepping stones of early learning life.
The Ideal

The IdealNURSERY FOR YOUR CHILD

It benefits from Haut-Lac’s 26 years’ experience in education

As a section of Haut-Lac International Bilingual School, Les Marronniers shares the same founding philosophy and years of educational expertise. Helping students to live, learn and achieve in a friendly, child-centered and stimulating atmosphere is essential to our work. That is why we ensure every one of our staff members is proactive in addressing the school’s philosophy as they go about accompanying children on the first steps of their school journey.

It encourages personal growth through a fun, bilingual programme

We place child development at the heart of what we do. We ensure it is so woven into exciting activities that learning and fun become inseparable.

Our young charges come to make friends, explore the great outdoors and find their voice in role play and storytelling. And in doing so, they also develop their confidence, their gross and fine motor skills, their social skills and their adventurous natures in a safe and tranquil environment. Our philosophy seeks to encourage this without sacrificing any of the joy that comes with early learning and new discoveries.

We also adopt a bilingual English-French “one person/one language” approach, which enables each child to confidently use and develop both languages.

It ensures personalised and dedicated child follow-up

Our team collates every child’s projects and hard work into a personal folder, which they give to the parents to show them the progress their child has made over the course of a year.

Similarly, we use an app called Seesaw to provide every individual family with regular updates and photos of their child learning and practicing their skills.

We also make daily notes on topics such as nutrition, sleep, new skills and knowledge acquirement, to help us update parents and answer any questions.

A TYPICAL DAY

WHERE?

Les Marronniers is situated in a calm, residential neighbourhood in Vevey, only a stone’s throw away from playgrounds, Lake Geneva and great parks.

Inside, the nursery is a wonderland of soft play circuits, reading corners, play houses, crafting areas complete with a sand & water table for sensory play and so much more. There are also quiet areas for calm activities and napping, a dining room and even a kitchen for when we decide to bake.

WHEN?

The nursery opens at 07:30, so parents can drop their children off before work, and closes at 18:30.

We are open all year long, with the exception of bank holidays and certain school holiday weeks. Check out our 2023-24 holiday calendar to know when we are closed.
