Saloila is a daycare centre for three groups of children in the heart of Oulunsalo. 

The daycare centre was designed by architect Ilpo Väisänen and completed in 1986. The daycare centre is located in the centre of Oulunsalo opposite the Kirkonkylä School. It was built on the historic site of the Tolvanen house. The aim of the design was to find a "language of architecture that is in harmony with the traditional conception of construction" (Tero Paldanius).

In the magnificent and unique courtyard park green larch, maples, alder, lilac bushes. The garden was designed by naturalist Viljo Tolvanen.

The barbecue hut in the daycare centre's yard is in frequent use on weekdays and also at various daycare centre events.

At Saloila, a warm attitude towards children and families is emphasized, everyone can be their true selves.

We cooperate and help each other through group boundaries. That's where Saloila's motto comes from: Don't leave a friend behind – we work together!

Our location in the centre of Oulunsalo enables hiking and visits in the surrounding area in a versatile way, and we have a wonderful yard area where it is nice to carry out Half a Day in the Yard activities. We are a nature-oriented daycare centre and we have been awarded the Green Flag.

The warm attitude and presence of an adult, a clear daily rhythm, well-planned pedagogy and small group activities create a safe and comfortable growth environment for children.

We follow the City of Oulu's early childhood education plan in our operations.
