MINI AIM

Mini AIM is a nature-inspired international nursery and kindergarten for children aged 1–6, located in Mijas. Rooted in Scandinavian values and guided by warmth, respect, and simplicity, Mini AIM offers a calm and caring start to early childhood.

Founded by passionate educators Kenneth and Vibeke, who previously built a thriving early years community in Benalmádena, Mini AIM is a place where families feel seen, supported, and part of something special.

A Day at Mini AIM

From the moment children arrive, they are met with smiles, open arms, and a safe space to be themselves. At Mini AIM, we believe young children thrive when they are given time to play, explore, and connect—both with others and with the world around them.

A typical day includes:

  • Free play in natural surroundings

  • Time with animals and nature

  • Creative and sensory activities

  • Group storytime and singing

  • Shared meals and calm moments

 

We keep a slow, mindful pace—giving children time to build relationships, develop confidence, and follow their own curiosity.
