Mission Statement
Our philosophy is to blossom for better growth. General motor skills, socialization, autonomy, fulfillment and creativity are essential bases to bring the child to develop himself and to discover the world which surrounds him/her. The child has to be an actor of his/her development to blossom, assure his first steps towards the future with confidence and build the solid bases of his/her personality. For that, we offer many wonderful activities adapted to each age group in a warm, safe and healthy environment around a multidisciplinary French team.

Testimonials
Pendant les 2 ans qu’Eleonor a passé à Perles d’Avenir, je l’ai vu s’épanouir et apprendre énormement. Quel bonhneur d’emmener une petite fille heureuse de retrouver ses copains et sa maitresse tous les matins! Et de la récupérer à 14h30 me disant “aujourd’hui, je me suis bien amusée à la crèche!” Un grand merci pour la qualité de toutes les animations organisées et pour la gentilesse de toute l’équipe!
Mother of Eleonor
Thank you so much for another wonderful year at Perles d’Avenir. Penny has had an amazing year and loved every minute of her time here. I would like to especially thank all the staff who looked after Penny’s class this year. It’s been an amazing year of growth and development and all of it has been conducted through fun! We look forward to coming back in September and seeing you all then.
