Duhovka helps children from a very young age to get to know what is happening around them in great detail, both in the field of nature and in the field of practical life. Children are then able to think, act and decide independently, and in the group of other children they know and can distinguish how to behave in a given situation.
Before I started working in Duhovka, I was employed in the field of forwarding / foreign trade and then in incoming tourism. Only now can I fully apply my education in the field of public catering acquired at the secondary hotel school in Prague.

What I like about Duhovka
Duhovka is great for children because it teaches them independence, respect for themselves and their surroundings and it develops their potential overall.
What helps me in my work
Definitely the experience of raising my two sons and my puppet theatre experience. In addition, I have accompanied children to outdoor schools as a school center educator. I have also completed a retraining course for nannies.

At Duhovka, I like the perfectly coordinated and friendly team of teachers who offer children topics and worldviews in context, emphasize the development of independence, non-violently prepare them for school and provide a number of additional activities. Diversity is the best thing about this job. Stereotypes stultify me, but with children from Duhovka every day is completely different.
Before entering preschool, I had many years of experience working in several facilities as a special education teacher; after my certification I worked at the Phoniatric Clinic then as a clinical speech therapist. I worked mainly in medical facilities with both adult and pediatric clients. I now use the practical experience in Duhovka, where multilingualism is often represented, and speech therapy certainly has its place here.

I'm lucky that my job is also my hobby. Young and old in Duhovka inspire me to further study, create and produce tailor-made materials. The reward for me is the joy of working together and small and big progress.
I knew from childhood that I would one day work with children. Probably because I'm the third generation of educators in our family. In addition to studying at Charles University, I appreciate the opportunity to work with our leading experts in the field of care for gifted children, children with specific learning disabilities, impaired communication skills; who work with sensory integration, neuro-developmental stimulation and motor development of skills of children and adolescents.
