“As a psychologist and parent of Happy Day I can be sure that the children are in the best hands. Here they are loved, cared for and stimulated in a playful and professional way. I am happy and proud to work and be part of the Happy Day family.”

Our psychologist is part of our onsite team, actively working in the classrooms and supporting the educators’ work. She trains our staff and is in constant communication with our network of external professionals with the aim of providing each child and family at our preschool with all the professional help necessary, as we know that early intervention is critical. In addition, she offers advice to parents on child-raising issues.
