Our team

A tight-knit team

A school is nothing without the people who bring it to life. At Bousso’s Baobab, we focus more on quality than quantity: the team is small, allows a better communication and offers continuous training for the educators. Currently, we have a mixed-age group. The team will expand with the growth of the facility in September.
