Nursery
Early childhood school (ages 0–3)
Cornellà de Llobregat

At Popótamo, we believe that childhood deserves to be lived with joy and safety. That’s why we open our doors as a nursery from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. During this time, we support children aged 0 to 3 in their first educational stage—a period that will shape their future.

A place where your child grows up happy

Our education is trilingual (English, Catalan, and Spanish), with small groups and personalized attention to respect each child’s pace. At Popótamo, every child is unique, and with this idea in mind, more than twenty-five years ago we created a place where they can learn, explore, and play with confidence. Our mission is to help them grow self-assured and discover the world at their own pace.

Our educational project

  • learning through play
  • early stimulation
  • sensory exploration
  • psychomotor development
  • language development
  • socialization
  • emotional intelligence
  • English, Catalan and Spanish

Each child is unique, which is why we respect their pace and nurture their abilities

Active methodologies and Montessori philosophy

We are inspired by the most effective educational approaches, especially the Montessori philosophy, because we believe in an education that combines play, freedom, respect, and meaningful learning.

We provide carefully prepared environments where children can experiment, make small decisions, solve challenges, and build independence with joy… always guided by an attentive and caring approach.

At Popótamo, we don’t just care for children—we build bonds, discover talents, and nurture confidence for life.

We want your child to feel happy every morning when they walk through the door, for you to feel at ease when you leave them with us, and for us to build together a journey full of learning.

If you are looking for a friendly, professional, and caring early years school, Popótamo is your place.

As educators, parents, and as a society, we have the responsibility to ensure that children have time and space to play. Creating environments that encourage exploration and experimentation is essential for healthy development.

Play does not need to be complex or directed. Children have the ability to turn anything, anywhere, into meaningful moments that teach and enrich them for life.

When we encourage play, we support their development, strengthen their abilities, and help them be happy. Let your child play.

Children between 0 and 6 years old absorb knowledge like sponges!
At this stage, they have an extraordinary capacity to learn thanks to the high plasticity of their brains, which allows them to acquire new languages naturally, spontaneously, and effortlessly.

At Popótamo, we strongly believe in the benefits of early exposure to English. Through games, songs, and fun activities, children discover and use the foreign language, integrating it into their daily routine while enjoying the learning process.

A day at Popótamo

During the day, we carry out:

  • free play and exploration in the early morning
  • sensory activities, music, psychomotor skills, and dance
  • storytelling, language development, and vocabulary acquisition
  • creative activities to work on the objectives of each level
  • outdoor play, routines, and rest

All these activities help develop autonomy, confidence, and social skills.
