Rooted in Nature, Nido’s approach is grounded in child-led play and authentic interaction, helping children learn Spanish through joy, curiosity, and real-life connection.
🌿A nurturing space where bodies strengthen, confidence flourishes and Spanish cultures come alive.
🌿Care and belonging are the core of our ethos. We encourage exploration, physical safe challenges, discovery, and for children to be agents of their own learning.

Testimonials
RA Méndez, Rose’s mom
My child has been attending the Nido Spanish immersion program and absolutely loves it. Her primary teacher, Eva, has been fantastic. She’s warm, welcoming, and always easy to reach if I have any questions. She has a great way of teaching Spanish that really connects with the kids and makes learning fun. My daughter looks forward to it every week and has had an amazing experience.
Even now that she’s starting TK, we’re continuing with El Nido and plan to in the years to come. It’s a wonderful mix of outdoor play, Spanish language learning, and time with friends all in a calm, nature based setting that supports learning in a fun and relaxed way. It’s also a great option for families with early school dismissal since it starts at 2 pm, a great alternative to typical after school care.
Highly, highly recommend!

Leila Buenviaje, Elle’s mom
El Nido is worth it, our kiddo loved the Spanish stories and songs and just being in the forest. I cannot say enough good things about these teachers. We love them so much we’re doing El Nido again this year. Our kiddo now attends Kindergarten in Oakland, and we know it will be worth it to bring him to the forest for two hours to be in such loving and beautiful community. I remember how would often he would come home singing the songs. I can tell they brought him so much joy.
I should also mention that we are a queer BIPOC fam, with a gender nonconforming kiddo. We experienced nothing but love and support, and the teachers welcomed feedback along the way.
