Meet the Team
Bumblebees Managing Director
Simona Lunina
I began my career with Bumblebees in 2018 as a teacher. In 2019, I took over Herttoniemi and worked as a daycare manager until 2022. After that, I became the managing director of Bumblebees Kindergarten Oy. I hold two Bachelor's degrees and a Master's degree: one in social sciences, one in preschool and pre-primary school pedagogy, and a Masters degree in Educational sciences. I am passionate about my work, and my main goal has been to create a place where children feel safe and heard. At the same time, I want parents to feel like they are part of our community, where they are treated with trust and respect. As a mother myself, I understand how important it is for families to choose the right place for their children. I want to make Bumblebees daycare a place where both children and their parents feel like it's their second home. And nothing goes better as the saying No matter what kind of day you have, we'll always have each other's backs.
