We view education as the fruit of love, with parents as the primary stakeholders. The relationship between the family and the educators is maintained on a daily basis, to share information about each child’s development and specific needs.
Our educational pillars
The central role of families
An innovative methodology
Our educational approach, the result of over 50 years of international experience, combines the Optimist method with selected elements of the Montessori pedagogy to provide a personalized education. It is tailored to each child’s developmental stage, fostering autonomy, experimentation, and discovery.
Safe and creative spaces
With our creative and safe spaces, we design free play areas where children handle, experiment, and enjoy exploring different materials, shapes, and colors with confidence, thus experiencing highly enriching sensory experiences.
Trilingualism (French, Arabic, and English)
At Aux Petits Matelots, we place great importance on language learning from an early age, a key moment in language development—not only for oral expression but especially for communication and culture.
