Little Saigon Kindergarten
Do you know that for children to develop optimally, the early imprints are incredibly important? A peaceful and affectionate home from parents serves as the best foundation for all children. We have been and are continuing our efforts to build the Little Saigon Kindergarten System to become like a true home for the children, where teachers are like family, and the children's fellow companions as they grow each day.
In addition to well-balanced, vibrant facilities close to nature, we highly value the human factor — young and passionate teachers, a united community, and a scientific educational approach are the cornerstones for comprehensive development. Nurturing love and happiness, cultivating positive traits, adaptability, and creativity in all children.

Reggio Emilia Philosophy &
Multiple Intelligences Theory
The Reggio Emilia philosophy and the Multiple Intelligences Theory (by Howard Gardner) are the guiding principles in all activities at Little Saigon Kindergarten. Our unique teaching program focuses on each individual child and their holistic development. Children engage in hands-on experiences to construct their own knowledge instead of passively learning. We emphasize emotional intelligence EQ, adaptability, adversity quotient AQ, and intellectual intelligence IQ. Education is not just about the knowledge children acquire; more importantly, it's about nurturing the individual and fostering children with love."
Classrooms
The curriculum at Little Saigon Kindergarten is specially designed and classes are divided into age groups with scientifically proportioned class sizes. This ensures that children's development is based on their psychological age, the main activities of each age group, their interests, and the respect for each child's abilities. By applying the Reggio Emilia philosophy through project-based learning, we respect and develop the 8 intelligences of children.
Ms. Nguyen Thi Kim Chi.
Head Principal &Founder
Ms. Chi, graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education and a Bachelor's degree in English Language. With over 14 years of experience in the field of early childhood education, I have come to realize more than ever the importance of investing in the comprehensive development of children. My team and I have studied and learned from the most advanced early childhood education methods in the world, aiming to provide Vietnamese children with an education on par with developed countries and a solid foundation for the constant changes in society.
I have defined my dream of a humanistic education philosophy and am determined to build new-style kindergartens based on the Reggio Emilia education philosophy—a place where every child is loved, respected, treated fairly, and encouraged to develop their own qualities, forming a foundation for good character. Vietnamese education is marching forward alongside powerful nations on the globe. We are not just speaking slogans; we are truly making it happen because every child deserves a nurturing educational environment for their holistic development.
