Our story

Mūsų istorija

"Baltų šalelė" kindergarten was founded in 2013 by Alina Sinicė, a mother of six children, lawyer, who has a Master's degree in Social Industries and Communication. The kindergarten is successfully expanding and already has two branches.

The most important goal of the Baltų Šalelė is the cultural education of children, to introduce them to the history of Lithuania, to help them understand how we differ from other nations and how we are similar. We created a cosy environment with artworks and objects reminiscent of Lithuanian culture. We also celebrate the forgotten Lithuanian festivals – Jorė, solstice, summer/winter equinoxes. The educational methodology developed and put into practice in the kindergarten has proved its worth in the education of children of different nationalities and has already been applied in other pre-school and primary education institutions.

Waldorf, Montessori and other educational methodologies are widespread in our country, but there was no Lithuanian one before us. The choice of different educational methodologies is an excellent medium for improving the quality of education, and it also allows families to choose an educational institution that reflects their worldview and lifestyle.

We belong to:

 Board of State pre-schools

 Lithuanian Ethnic Culture Society

 Lithuanian Union of Ethnic Culture Educators

Perhaps the best assessment of a kindergarten is a child who willingly goes every day. Thank you for your exceptional attention to the education of young children, the cosy environment and the warm-hearted teachers. Baltų Šalelė is a second home!

Kotryna, mother of Ūla

We are very happy to have chosen "Baltų šalėlė" kindergarten. Very quiet place, homely environment, professional and warm, very empathetic employees, exceptional education system. Squirrels running in the yard... There is an option to visit the pool and other interesting activities. Our sensitive daughter fit in and felt really good in this kindergarten. She was fully prepared for school. We remember "Baltų šalelė" with love, warmth, we feel a lot of gratitude and we wish you success!"

Skaistė, mother of Ema

Every morning when we arrived at "Baltų Šalelė", we felt like home. Cozy atmosphere and the faces of happy children sets a very good mood for the start of the day. Teachers always greet children with joy, hug them. Jonas always stayed in the kindergarten willingly and returned home with good emotions. Cozy, calm and harmonious environment of the kindergarten.

Community

Bendruomenė

We want Baltų šalelė to be not only a kindergarten, but also a family and community centre.

We celebrate Lithuanian calendar holidays together with parents, invite you to join us on excursions and organise cosy parties.

In addition to participating in our events, we invite you to initiate them yourself - we always welcome mums, dads, grandparents, grandmothers, uncles and aunts to present their ideas, professions and hobbies to the youngest listeners. Together, we are building a community that is good to live in.
