Who we are

The nursery is the result of the synergistic collaboration between the University, the Cariparo Foundation and the SPES (Educational and Social Persona Services) body. 

In particular, the University guarantees:

• a scientific committee composed of Marina De Rossi (coordinator), Silvia Carraro, Paola Milani, Antonio Paoli, Emilia Restiglian and Alessandra Simonelli, with the task of developing the psycho-pedagogical project, monitoring and evaluation, collaboration in training, sharing new research and knowledge, constant attention to updating and other actions aimed at the quality of the service offered;
• an expert figure in connection between SPES and the scientific committee. In the position of research technologist, Daniela Moreno Boudon, employee of the University Welfare Office, carries out the functions of scientific-pedagogical coordination, organizing and coordinating the research and training actions of the educational team, in close collaboration with the nursery coordinator, and ensuring the implementation of the pedagogical project and continuous improvement actions;
• a technical committee that operationally supports the scientific committee in carrying out its mandate, composed of Paola Milani, Emilia Restiglian and Sara Serbati;
• a group of teachers who are friends of the nursery, who make their skills available in various fields: music, art, architecture, literature, natural sciences, sport/motor skills, pediatrics, etc.;
• a group of Citizens friends of the Nursery: parents, associations, foundations (Soroptimist, Cariparo, etc.) who hold an open dialogue between the nursery and the city.

The contact person for the University is the delegate for Teacher Training and Innovative Teaching, Marina De Rossi.

At the University, the management of the rankings for enrolment in the Nursery is the head of the Economic Treatment and Welfare Office - Welfare Sector.

• the co-construction of the psycho-pedagogical project and its monitoring;
