A gift for lifestarts here
We're a family-run bilingual nursery where children become resilient, creative and fluent in Spanish through play, exploration and lots of love.
A little nursery with big dreams
Lianne founded Bonitots in 2015 as a small childminding setting, inspired by a big idea: what if children could learn Spanish naturally by spending their nursery days immersed in the language?
Fast forward to today: we're now a 60+ place nursery with two gardens, a Mini City, and a team of brilliant educators who genuinely love what they do.
"Studies show bilingual children develop stronger cognitive skills, better empathy, and greater academic success. We see it every day."
Spaces for Every Stage
Spanish
Immersion
Every moment at Bonitots happens in Spanish. From buenos días to hasta mañana, children absorb the language naturally, just like at home.
Our Mini City
Our downstairs rooms for older children are set in a child-sized miniature city brimming with learning opportunities.
Whether they're having a tea or coffee at the cafeteria, checking heartbeats in the hospital, or selling tickets at the theatre, children learn by being. Reading, writing and maths become a natural part of their play.
Two Gardens to Explore
At Bonitots, we believe there's no such thing as bad weather, just the wrong clothes! Children explore our outdoor spaces in all weathers.
Our large front garden builds on the role play theme with a network of roads, crossings and even a rocket. In our back garden, children can enjoy our huge sandpit and outdoor cooking area.
