Childhood is a crucial phase in a child’s development. Dibber offers a novel approach to preschool that embraces holistic education. It is the largest operator in the Nordics with over 520 high-quality preschools in eight different countries and soon it will be available in South Africa.
Holistic education
Dibber focuses on developing a child’s cognitive, emotional, physical, and social abilities. Firstly, it considers the needs, experiences and skills of each child. Secondly, it takes into account a child’s knowledge when planning learning opportunities and activities. By introducing new elements and challenges, children gain self confidence and advance.
Life is a discovery. For example, we create experiences, friendship, learning opportunities and memories together. These will shape children’s development and lay the foundation for life mastery and lifelong learning.

Social interactions and relations promote better learning and development while similarly, strong friendships help create a safe environment for our children.

Playful learning
Play helps children learn to interact and use their senses, although it is often seen as the opposite of learning. However, it develops social skills, empathy and self-worth. The physical learning environment in preschool is often referred to as the third teacher. It must be an exciting and well-structured place that inspires curiosity and interaction.
Sense of community
Dibber promotes a strong sense of community among parents and caretakers. It starts with the adults who greet adults and children with interest.
