International bilingual daycare centres: for whom?

In France, there are many reasons why families choose a bilingual daycare centre for their child:

• families from a variety of cultures who are not fluent in French, and for whom communication in English is easier for both parents and child;
• families who want their children to be immersed from an early age in an environment that encourages them to learn a new language and discover other cultures.

What is an international bilingual daycare centre?

• Most daycare centres are bilingual in English and French, but there are also bilingual daycare centres offering immersion in Spanish, Italian and German.
• Teams are made up of at least 50% of staff fluent in a second language and a native speaker.
• In most centres, outside speakers specialising in language learning for toddlers come to run workshops.
• The approach is above all playful: the discovery of languages takes place through activities (songs, daycare centre rhymes, stories, puppets, etc.) or during everyday life (meals, change time, etc.). Introducing children to languages gives them a sense of linguistic and cultural diversity: "There are other languages and other sounds".
