untuk anak — for the child

The kind of preschool you wish you had as a child — now open in Tabanan.

A boutique, home-based preschool & daycare for children aged 2 to 5. Only twenty children total — so every child is truly seen, every parent truly known, and every day feels calm, warm, and alive.

A glimpse inside

See what a day actually looks and feels like.

We share small daily moments from the space — children painting, cooking, playing outside, resting. Follow along on Instagram, or come see it in person.

More than a preschool

When you enroll your child, you also open a door for another.

We operate on a cross-subsidy model: for every two enrolled children, we open one supported space for a child from a local family — with up to 70% subsidy or a full scholarship.

Children from different backgrounds learn side by side, building empathy, awareness, and community from their very first years.

How learning happens

Not isolated subjects — meaningful, connected experiences.

A simple interest — water, cooking, building, a leaf — can grow into a multi-week project. Teachers observe, listen, and extend children's thinking with the right materials and questions.

01

Process Art

Children explore materials freely — mixing, texturing, deciding. The focus is on how they think and express, not what they produce.

02

Science Exploration

Water play, cooking, and nature become quiet laboratories for curiosity, observation, and cause-and-effect.

03

Cooking Class

Real tasks — pouring, scooping, cutting soft foods — repeated gently so children build confidence and independence.

04

Early Literacy

Stories, songs, conversation. Vocabulary and listening grow naturally before reading and writing are gently introduced.

05

Early Numeracy

Counting, sorting, and patterns discovered through cooking, building, and daily life — never worksheets.

06

Body Movement

Climbing, dancing, balancing. Movement supports coordination, focus, and emotional regulation every single day.

07

Loving the Earth

Gardening, caring for plants, observing the seasons — building a quiet, lifelong relationship with the natural world.

There's a lot more to see than a homepage can hold.

The space

Calm. Considered. Quietly alive.

Our environment is intentionally prepared — safe and nurturing, calm and aesthetically considered, stimulating without being overwhelming. Materials are open-ended; spaces evolve with the children's interests; nature is always close at hand.
