Embreier · about Embreier
Embreier, a family house
your child, steadier and more at ease
about Embreier · the founding 50 · Lausanne

your child becomes steadier, more focused, and more at ease with others. a quiet weekly place to build it, formed young, through movement, making, reflection, and play.

the embreier arc
how the week works
ninety minutes, once a week, a group of eight, the same educator each time.
01
move
bilateral movement, then stillness and music. the body settles, breath slows.
02
pause
slow breath, feelings named aloud. emotion steadies.
03
make
materials and free choice. attention holds, false starts resolve.
04
belong
a closing circle, then parents return. the group becomes their own.

one method · one sequence · skills that add up.
the rigour underneath
a method built to a standard
what looks like a beautiful weekly hour is, underneath, careful developmental work.
trained
master's-level educators
every group led by an educator with master's training in psychology or pedagogy, certified to one standard and recertified each year.
measured
growth you can see
tracked across four capacities with a structured observation each week, so progress is visible rather than assumed.
evidence-led
grounded in science
built on the neuroscience of attention, calm, and social connection, with a research partner in Vaud.
proven
five years, 1,800 hours
developed with children across Norway, Shanghai, and New York before it reached Lausanne.
Quintana Hoyne, founder
our founder
your child grows steadier in good company. that is what I built Embreier to give: a weekly group where patience, creativity, and calm become habits, built young, through play. the method is careful, the hour just feels good.
