Staff is great. My son loved all of his teachers and had a lot of fun during his 1 1/2 years while he was there. The only reason he doesn’t go there anymore is due to a change in my job location. If I still worked close to this location, he would still be there.

Kindergartens in Italy: organization and features
Parental leave in Italy is small, so the issue of kindergartens and nurseries is very acute. Olga Merolla, who moved from Samara to Perugia three years ago, tells how Italian parents solve this problem.
Maternity leave according to the law lasts only 5 months. You can leave work 2 months before the birth and, after the birth, take care of the child for 3 months, while maintaining 90-100% of the salary. Further, it is possible to extend the vacation for a maximum of another 3 months, while paying only 30%! Therefore, many Italian parents are in a hurry to find good nurseries and kindergartens in order to entrust their child to caregivers and be able to return to the office. There are two main categories of kindergartens in Italy. For the youngest – a nursery (asilo nido in Italian), where they accept from 3-4 months of age and up to 3 years. The nursery is open all days except Saturday and Sunday, closed for holidays in July and August. Officially, the day in the nursery lasts on average until 16.30. If the parents do not have time to pick up the baby so early, the services of an educator are paid separately and you can come for the child later. The situation with nurseries in Italy is very deplorable: in terms of their number, the country occupies one of the last places in Europe. This state of affairs is explained by the strong local tradition of raising the baby on their own and sitting at home with him, and not trying to give him from the cradle into the hands of caregivers. Nevertheless, despite the old Italian traditions, many modern mothers would still prefer to have a freer schedule and arrange a daughter or son in a nursery. nine0003
The central regions of Italy (Tuscany, Umbria) have the “best” indicator: there are 33 free places in kindergartens for 100 children. For example, in the north of the country, many more children attend nurseries (in Emilia-Romagna 29.4% of children are enrolled in nurseries), while in the south of the country, in the Campania region and Sicily, only 2.5% of all babies go to nurseries. Such a low figure is connected both with family traditions – they are stronger in the south, and with the tense situation in the nursery: there are sorely lacking places for everyone. The reason for such indicators and the unemployment rate is that it is higher in the south, respectively, many mothers are forced to stay at home and raise a child. On average, 25% of children across the country cannot get into kindergartens. In some regions, for example, in Sicily, this figure has reached 42%! A high rate is also in Tuscany – 33%. This tense situation led to the fact that in 2009Italy turned to Northern Europe for experience and began to open “family kindergartens” (i nidi familiari). The idea is simple – a group of 3-7 children spends the day at home with a private caregiver (she is called in German “tagesmutter”, day mother), most often with her own child. Of course, this service is paid, but for many working mothers this is the only way out. In addition to being convenient, it is often easier to negotiate with a woman than with a kindergarten teacher. Such kindergartens also solve the problem of unemployment, as many mothers, sitting at home, also earn their living by studying and playing with other children. Of course, becoming a “day mom” is not so easy: a woman must either be a mother herself, or have a teaching diploma and experience in kindergarten. The room in which the placement of children is planned is also controlled before starting work. It should be completely safe and comfortable for children. The average cost for parents is 200 euros for half a day and 400 for a full day per month. Alas, so far there are very few such gardens and Italian nurseries are not able to satisfy the demands of society. nine0003
. But since Italy is a country in which everything can change very, very much depending on the region, the average price for major cities is as follows: Rome – 146 euros, Milan – 232, Lecco (a city in the Lombardy region, north of the country) – 537, Catanzaro (the very south, Calabria region) – 80, Venice – 316. The average annual price is 3000 euros per year (10 months, July and August, the nursery does not work). In general, the cost of keeping a child in a nursery is lowest in Calabria (the boot of Italy), the highest in Lombardy (the region in which Milan is located, the north of the country). The next step is the “mother school” (la scuola materna or la scuola d’infanzia), where children aged 3-6 are accepted. Such “schools” can be either public or private – both paid. Children are divided by age into groups, on average in each group 15-30 people. Here the situation is already noticeably better, Italy breaks out to the first places in Europe in terms of the number of kindergartens! nine8% of children aged 3 to 5 attend kindergartens. Meals in the gardens are three times a day – breakfast, afternoon tea and lunch. It is paid in addition to the garden fee. The average price for one meal is 4-5 euros. Most often, food is prepared not in the kindergarten itself, but in one large dining room, from where it is then delivered to children’s institutions. A bio-diet is very popular, that is, dishes prepared from bio-vegetables grown without fertilizer with harmful substances. The menu includes a lot of fruits, mashed potatoes, soups, rice, almost every day – light vegetable salads. Of course, there is no place in Italy without pasta: different types of pasta are prepared for kids – for example, with vegetables. nine0003
Some kindergartens organize buses to pick up children from home. This is very convenient for parents, although they still have to pick up the baby from the kindergarten personally. The service is paid – 25-35 euros per month, the price depends on the number of trips. Here is an officially approved list of what children are taught in kindergartens: – I and others (the laws of coexistence in society, moral issues) – Physical activity – Languages, creativity, self-expression – Vocabulary replenishment, rhetoric (children are taught to express themselves, make speeches) – Getting to know the world (space, time, nature)
Cooking courses are also sometimes held in kindergartens, they take children to the pool, put on performances, play, walk – in general, they do everything that Russian kids do. The schedule may include speech development, drawing, modeling, appliqué, mathematics, psychomotor skills, music, gymnastics, seniors are taught English and computer literacy, they take them on excursions to school, where they conduct lessons with first-graders.
Nuns often organize private kindergartens. Since Italy is a very religious country, many families prefer to send their children to such institutions. Of course, no one will force a child to pray all day and put pressure on him in religious matters, but the course of study includes prayers before dinner and the singing of psalms.
In the classroom, there is an obvious bias in the history of Catholicism, holidays are also celebrated with an appeal to the topic of religion. nine0003
In Italy, there is a rule – on the first day of a child’s stay in the garden, the mother must be with him from morning to evening. The involvement of the child in the life of the garden is called “inserimento” and it takes place according to a strict schedule. For example, the first day with the baby without pauses in communication, the second day – 15 minutes with the child and 15 minutes of independence, the third day – pauses for half an hour, and so on. The average “inserimento” lasts a week, but in some gardens it can be organized differently and last longer. nine0003
Kindergarten prices for 3-6 year olds are calculated based on family income. There are several categories of families that are entitled to benefits – for example, the unemployed, with one working family member, families with many children. For them, the monthly fee for a garden is 50-165 euros (depending on the level of annual income and on the region of the country). The average price for a garden per year is 972 euros, but keep in mind that this is an average figure, you can find in the same group a baby whose family pays 45 euros per month and one whose family pays 170 euros. Yes, not everyone is entitled to benefits, and wealthy families pay at the appropriate rates. In private kindergartens, prices are higher, but not by much. Many prefer private kindergartens, as there are fewer groups and more educational activities for children. The price for private gardens is very different, it all depends on the policy of the manager. Let’s just say that for 1000-1500 euros a year you can find a private garden, although it’s easier, of course, to sign up for those that are more expensive (there are usually more free places).
