The Nursery

Llar Gaudí — a space where everything begins.

Llar d'Infants Gaudí opened its doors in 2000 with a clear vision: that the first years of life deserved a space created with care, affection, and professionalism. Since then, we have accompanied hundreds of families in the Guinardó neighborhood.

We are a nursery school for children aged 0 to 3 integrated into Escola Pàlcam, located on Castillejos Street, near the Hospital de Sant Pau. An urban, accessible, and well-connected environment that is home to many local families.

Who we are and what we believe in

We understand education as guidance and accompaniment.

We do not wish to rush stages or fill time with rigid structured activities: we want every child to have room to explore, make mistakes, and discover who they are. To feel listened to, respected, and above all, loved.

Active respect

We observe, listen, and guide. We recognize each child's uniqueness and value every stage of their development.

Autonomy from day one

We encourage every child to learn to do, decide, and think for themselves, with the security of feeling supported.

The child as protagonist

Routines, spontaneous play, relationships, and caring moments are the heart of our pedagogical project.

Partnership with families

Education is a shared effort. Constant, open, and respectful communication channels from day one.

Our classrooms

7 spaces, 6 groups, abundant natural light.

Capacity for 87 places across 6 age groups. In addition to classrooms, we feature a psychomotricity room, a welcome area, and an outdoor yard for free play.
