Municipal daycare centres offering pre-primary education 2025–2026

On this page you can find both Finnish-language and Swedish-language municipal and private daycare centres that offer pre-primary education in 2025–2026 as well as their partner schools.

Helsinki is divided into pre-primary education admission areas that are either identical or slightly larger than the school admission areas of basic education. More than one comprehensive school may be in a pre-primary education admission area. Each daycare centre or school providing pre-primary has one or more partner schools with which pre-primary education groups collaborate during the pre-primary year.

You can check your admission area and pre-primary education locations according to the child’s home address on the service map(Link leads to external service). The admission areas are updated on the service map each school year.
