SPEAK TO Amanda

“Anya helped us navigate the many schooling options for our children as we prepared to move to Barcelona. It would have been impossible to acquire this level of information without going to Barcelona ourselves and taking a week to explore the schools, which wasn’t possible during the pandemic and would have been difficult even in “normal” times. Anya helped us narrow our search and gave us peace of mind that was priceless as foreigners moving to a new country.”
– Audrey S
“I was feeling completely lost trying to figure out schooling options for my son, who has a learning disability. Natalie helped us understand the very real differences between public and private schools in terms of actual support and classroom realities. She was honest about what could and couldn’t be guaranteed and helped us narrow in on the few private schools that would truly meet his needs as well as the ways in which public schools would also be strong considerations. Her insight and calm, grounded approach gave me the confidence to move forward with more clarity.”
— Lisa, New York
“Sinéad’was of tremendous help. Madrid is a fantastic big capital city with variety of schools for children. Only insider knowledge, understanding experience of other children could help to choose the right one. Sinéad carefully listened to our requirements, spoke with my daughter and quite quickly provided us with the “short list” and arranged for visits. One school was a perfect match. Then she assisted with all procedures at school (applications, etc), made sure my daughter is enrolled, etc. So, highly recommended for everyone who is looking for a great school in Madrid for their children!””
— Alisa Melkonian

Unclear differences between public, concertado, private, and international schools

Language support concerns and learning needs.

Application timelines that don’t align with your relocation plans

And most importantly when you need help identifying a school that aligns with your child’s personality, strengths, and needs.
