What is Päikky?

From 1.11.2024, the early childhood education online system Päikky will be in use in the City of Rauma’s early childhood education. In Päikky, the carers book their children’s early education hours, and the system will be used to maintain contact between the home and the day care centre.

Päikky will be open for open early childhood education customers in early 2025.

Download the Päikky Huoltaja app

Carers are encouraged to download the Päikky Huoltaja mobile app. The app is available free of charge on Google Play and the App Store.

The app also works in a browser at rauma.paikky.fi.

The username for the app is your mobile phone number without the Finnish landcode. To activate your account, you will need to authenticate yourself and set a password the first time you use the app.

During the login phase, you can select Finnish, English or Swedish as the application language.

Registering children’s childcare hours

The booking calendar closes at 12 noon on the Monday of the previous week.

Please note reservations and planned absences at least one week in advance. Reservations can be made for longer periods.

You can save a default plan for your child if the times are the same every day.

Book your child’s early education as carefully as possible, and remember to leave space in your planning for unexpected and unforeseen situations.

For known absences, mark in advance “planned absence”. This entry does not accumulate billable hours.

A missing reservation or absence entry will accumulate hours to be billed.

You can mark a child’s sudden absence even if the calendar is locked.
