early learning / tiny tots basel

Can anyone share their experiences with Early Learning Association (Tiny Tots) Basel? I'm particularly looking for feedback regarding the Primary School.

We are moving, and need to choose a school for our 5 year old. ISB seems "tried and true" but Early Learning association looks attractive for living in the city and avoiding the commute. We also have a 2 yr old and it would be nice to have them in the same place.

I am particularly keen to know about the academics of the primary school. I want to make sure that my daughter will stay on track with her peers when we return to the US after 2 years.

Thanks for any input you can give!

Re: early learning / tiny tots basel

Hi,
My daughter is on the waiting list for a place at tinytots- hence I have no personal experience of the teaching etc. But I have heard very good reviews from others. I dont think you could be wrong opting for tiny tots if you are prepared for the fees.
We even thought of finding a flat near tiny tots to save commute but for various reasons, tax not being the least, decided to live in reinach- in the middle of a house search now
let me know if you need any further details.

Re: early learning / tiny tots basel

Hi
I am a childrens author who worked in the tiny tots school in June. I found it to be a very well run enthusiastic school - the standard of care and commitment was very high. The primary school has been established for two years - but there's plenty of room for expansion. I'd recommend it...
regards
