From love, respect and value towards early childhood arises the intention to create a space to accompany children in their first moments of life, when they begin to interact to others and that, for family needs, have to be in the care of a new person; in a homey, easy, warm and loving environment.
Alecrim is a space prepared to accommodate within a home a small group of children through an individualized accompaniment, offering the envelope and support necessary for healthy development. This project is under the supervision of an early childhood professional. Teacher of Early Childhood Education, Waldorf Teacher and Graduate in Early Accompanying Child Development, who after years of experience in educational work with young children considers it valuable to offer a space that preserves the quality of daily care, respect for time of exploration and discovery, learning from the interest, need and will of the child.
The proposal is based on a daily and weekly routine, embracing the Waldorf and Piklerian pedagogical principles, highlighting the importance of observation, calm and astonishment. This is done in an environment that favours child growth and development, using suitable materials and objects that encourage autonomous play. The accompaniment based on these principles is vital for the health and well-being of younger children, allowing them to find themselves in the world with confidence, creativity and dedication by having been supported from the first moments of their life in an absolutely individualized way, with intimate and protective contact. In this way, the experience is impregnated from respect and love, fundamental principles during the founding stage of life, where the foundations for a balanced emotional and psychological development are laid.
The space of play, care and learning embraces the principles of the Waldorf and Pikler Pedagogy, two views that respect the integral development of early childhood, watching for their rights and recognizing their human potentialities from the earliest years of life. The day-to-day routine is determined according to the needs of the child. Adults are present, fostering the consolidation of ties, being attentive observers of the future. Stable times and spaces are preserved through healthy rhythms for playing, exploring, meeting others, resting, etc.
