Discover Our Ikigai

More than a daycare, we are a place to grow, discover, and find joy in learning.

About Us

At Ikigai, we see childhood as a journey of joyful discovery. Our approach is inspired by the **Japanese concept of Ikigai** (生き甲斐) — a reason for being. We believe every child holds a unique spark, and our purpose is to nurture it.

By blending play-based learning with emotional intelligence, we create a **safe, inclusive, and wondrous space** where little minds find what they love, discover what they're good at, and begin a lifelong adventure filled with purpose.
