The founder, who studied educational philosophy and experienced in early childhood education around the world, aims to provide an educational environment that allows not only the children, but also the families and the caregivers to spend time together comfortably and learn together.

We value an environment where the children, the parents and the caregivers can spend a pleasant time together and foster curiosity, the ability to think independently, and enjoy learning English.

The happiness of children, parents and childcare providers is key.
We foster and grow inquisitive minds at Pikkas International Preschool.

At Pikkas, we place importance on creating a safe environment for the children to spend a pleasant time at preschool, and to reduce the burden on families, while respecting the different lifestyles of each family.
Pikkas strives to provide peace of mind not only to the children, but also to the parents and the childcare providers. We believe that the "The happiness of all of us(三方よし)" childcare promotes healthy growth and development of children.

Quality education is born from quality soil.
In order to grow healthy plants, it is important to prepare the soil first. Good soil is moderately compact, has good drainage but also retains water, and has excellent breathability. We believe the same can be said when nurturing the mind of young children.
The first step is for the children to acquire basic lifestyle habits by building trust-based relationships with childcare providers and friends, by experiencing that preschool is a fun and safe place, and by placing value on outdoor play suitable for exploration.
Only then will the soil be prepared for physical development and language acquisition. At Pikkas, we want everyone to live their daily lives, cherishing this philosophy.

We offer an English environment, which puts emphasis on improving thinking skills.
The knowledge of language and culture, as well as various motor skills are the basic skills that are important for living in our society. At Pikkas, based on original programs that incorporate various overseas early childcare education philosophies, we cultivate our children's creativity, planning, and motor skills in an environment that develops independent thinking skills.
It is said that it takes more than 3,000 hours to learn the English language. At Pikkas, only English will be used during childcare hours. Because early childhood has the highest language acquisition ability, the children are introduced to a natural English environment, and when the children’s range of interests expands, we naturally guide them to activities, such as reading and writing imbedded in play, according to each child's interests.
