We meet each child where they are, with two formats for ages 4 to 15, across Root, Rise, and Reach.

Embreier Signature is our 90-minute flagship format, built around a consistent developmental arc in a small group, where emotional and social capacities build with confidence, with the educator attuned to each child, moment by moment.

Embreier Wednesday provides full Wednesday coverage from 12:00–18:00, extending the same experience across the afternoon, designed with respect for our parents’ need.

Both formats follow the same principles. Both are open across all three age bands. The difference is simply the duration.

Embreier welcomes children from 4 to 15, across three developmental bands: Root, ages 4 to 9, Rise, ages 10 to 13, and Reach, ages 13 to 15.

Groups are small, with eight children, organised by age band, and held by the same educator each week.

If your child is close to four, or near the edge of an age range, write to us. We will advise gently on timing and help you find the right placement.

Maximum 8 children per group. The same group and the same educator stay together each week.

Your child is with a consistent, highly trained Embreier educator each week, in a small group designed for attention and ease.

Our educators hold advanced training in psychology or pedagogy, including from EPFL and UNIL, and are further trained in the Embreier Method. Fluent in English and French, they create a calm, well-held environment where children can settle, engage, and grow at their own pace.

After each session, they are available for a brief conversation if you’d like.

Often, yes. Mixed ages work very well in Embreier.

Some families choose a shared experience, others prefer each child to have their own space. Both are well supported.

Each session includes a flexible arrival window. Children joining slightly after the start time enter during the movement phase, which absorbs this naturally.

If your timing is specific, let us know and we’ll confirm whether the group fits.

Yes. Embreier is designed to build a strong foundation for long-term resilience and social intelligence.

Children learn to settle, adapt, and relate to others in ways that become natural over time. This happens in an engaging, socially fulfilling setting, where these capacities are practiced as part of the experience, without added pressure.

With a consistent rhythm, a small group, and a familiar educator each week, children are met where they are and find their place naturally.

• More ease in transitions. Mornings, arrivals, and evenings feel smoother.

• Feelings move through more easily. Children begin to trust that they can.

• Greater independence. More initiative in small tasks and daily routines.

• Steadier presence. Calmer responses, even in moments of frustration.

• A lighter rhythm for you. One full afternoon is held, with nothing to organise or follow up.

Embreier is currently available in selected locations across Vaud and Geneva. Groups are kept intentionally small so the experience remains consistent and fulfilling for every family. You are welcome to apply to see current openings. If a space is not available right away, we will guide you on timing and support your placement.
