Nursery

Bölcsőde Budapest

Introduction

The Music House Nursery is a 380 square metre bright building with a more than 1000 square metre fenced garden, plus its own closed parking lot which awaits families with small children of nursery and preschool age (from 20 months to 3-4 years). The nursery is ideal for families who live in the Buda Hills and who would like their children to be cared for in a green and quiet environment, along with a music-centred educational programme. We offer small group sizes equipped with age-appropriate games and development tools, in a building with a separate music room and gym, book corner and a well-equipped playground. Our Hungarian and foreign teachers work in close co-operation with parents to develop confident and independent children. Music House provides nutritious meals four times a day, prepared daily by our dedicated kitchen staff.

It is important for us to have good communication and information exchange between the nursery’s management, teachers and parents / families. In addition, it is possible to organise meetings during the year, if need be, with teachers and management.

The nursery is open every weekday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Activities

In addition to our music-based curriculum, Music House offers a strong emphasis on the development of all key individual skills including gross motor skills, fine motor skills, speech, creativity, imagination, and socialisation during free play. We also offer a varied programme, as we offer unique and exciting activities based on regularly changing topics.

As the children are immersed in an international language all day, every day, they develop their skills in a natural and fun way, comparable to the acquisition of a mother tongue. We actively encourage the children to play and to learn language in a fun and enriching way. For this intensive in-depth approach, the presence of English-speaking nursery teachers is essential, who consistently use the language in the daily life of the nursery including with the following subjects:

  • Logical Development,
  • Music,
  • Physical Education / Baby Gym
  • Arts & Crafts,
  • Drama & Puppetry,
  • Children’s Yoga.

Special events, activities & programmes:

  • A ‘Friday Funday’ each Friday filled with exciting activities,
  • Special guests who are regularly invited to provide special programmes,
  • Scientific experiments,
  • Trips to different playgrounds,
  • Halloween & carnival,
  • Baking & cooking,
  • Puppet theatre,
  • Sports Day.

Settling in

The settling-in period is a key part of the nursery experience. Above all, during settling-in we approach the children with patience and understanding as well as special attention, when needed. We aim for our students to have a strong and positive emotional attachment to Music House and a sense of security is important for children so that there is no negative setback later on. It is key for us that the process is facilitated by caring educators and teachers with the active involvement of parents as well as mutual co-operation.

Our goal is to make the institution a friendly and inviting place for young children, where they can quickly fit in and pick up the rhythm of life and daily routines. We also strive for them to make new friends, receive an education and to feel safe. Of course, we also ensure that parents feel confident leaving their child at the nursery and that they are in safe and caring environment.

There is continuous communication between teachers and parents during the settling period which helps the child to become habituated step-by-step. We believe that it is important to observe the child’s behaviour and to keep in mind that this process is different for each child and that there are different stages of settling. Most children settle easily and without issue, although some can take a little longer, in which case we provide extra support.

Community and special events

In addition to the above regular programmes during the year, we value our family atmosphere as we are a relatively small institution with small groups and many siblings. We also value the direct relationships between teachers and families as well as our co-operation with international institutions and schools. At Music House, we also hold regular private events aimed at our attending families.

The following programmes are examples of special events involving our families. These include events which our students directly take part in as a way to enrich their learning experience and grow their self-confidence:

  • Christmas Show,
  • Parents’ Day,
  • Picnic with families,
  • End-of-year show with graduation programmes.

I am truly happy and grateful to have found Music House! From my first introduction visit I was sure that this is the best place for my son to attend nursery. My son’s adaptation was smooth thanks to Edina and the staff, who are creating a calm, safe and loving environment for all the children! He loves to go every day there and is walking in with joyful jumping! I highly recommend Music house to anyone.

We have made an extensive research for nurseries and kindergartens in Budapest. However after we toured the Music House, we made the decision it is the right place for our son. Our son has settled down very smoothly and quickly thanks to the welcoming and worm environment. The teachers are excellent, and we already have seen positive progress in our son’s development after one month. The following key areas are really worth highlighting - excellent management, effective and transparent communication, safety and super cleanness of the premises. We definitely recommend!

This is a great nursery, warm, loving and welcoming. Feels like a second home. Kids and staff are happy, the facilities are really bright and colourful and lot of care goes into keeping the kids happy, entertained while developing their skills. Staff take individual and patient care with all kids. My child showed progress in many areas almost immediately and settled in almost immediately. We love that music and art is a core part of everything the kids do in their classes as tools to develop and enhance their abilities. I can warmly recommend this nursery/kindergarten to anyone.

I fell in love with Music House from the moment I walked in the door for a tour. It is calm, clean and such a happy place to be. My son loves going to school everyday and he is happy when I pick him up in the afternoon. He is learning, meeting new friends from all over the world and trying new Hungarian food! I love the small class sizes and I know my son is loved and well taken care of. I 100% recommend Music House to parents who want a school that feels like a family. 🙂

I can't speak highly enough of this fantastic nursery. Our children have serious dietary issues and after one disastrous experience at another nursery, we were so apprehensive. But Edina and Attila and all their staff has left us feeling so reassured and calm to know our children are being taken care of. The extra step they take to ensure that everything is safe for them is comparable to us 🙂 They love them like their own children. My daughter literally runs to the door every morning excited to go to school and the smile on her face when she comes home tells it all.

For those who want an intimate and caring environment for your children’s early learning experience, then, I would highly recommend The Music House. Our four year old twins started pre-Kindergarten at The Music House in Mid September. Moving country can be hard on little ones for the first while but Edina, Attila and their professional team have been so helpful and accommodating that the transition has been made very easy. The kids look forward to going to school each morning and I hear them singing new songs from school as we drive along in the car. Each day varies which keeps everything more interesting and enjoyable. Overall, a wonderful pre-school!

An island of calmness and joy! I fell in love with Music House at our first visit and get the same feeling going there every day. The love and care for the children is outstanding, as well as the range of possibilities for development. I cannot compare to any other place I have seen. Starting nursery is a beautiful, but tough challenge for every parent - I can tell, I feel so safe and content, but most importantly my Son enjoys his time at Music House so much! Thanks so much for all the loving and professional teachers! ❤️
