What People are Saying about IMS

“My child has attended the school for nearly 3 years now. The teachers and staff are all welcoming, knowledgeable and offer great support to the children’s development. My child enjoys the extra activities the school offers as part of its normal day to day services such as music lessons, yoga and hopes the Friday trips can resume following covid. We also use the summer camp which is great fun and means my child can see if friends in a safe and secure environment.”

We love this nursery and we are so happy to have been able to get a space for our son. Our son started at 5 months and I was put at ease straight away. The staff are lovely and very attentive to his needs. He is always happy to be there and has a huge smile alway. We get weekly photos and updates to see the activities and fun the week has brought. Fantastic location, environment, staff and students. We look forward to many years to come at Nanitos. Thanks to all.

I love this school very much. Each student is given special attention. My son first went to the nursery here, and now to school. My son is happy to come here. Very interesting topics of classes! I recommend this place to everyone

What better proof that this is the perfect school for us than the fact that our children are upset when they cannot go to school on Saturday mornings… :)) Our twin boys have been with IMS for 2 years now and I am amazed every week by their progress and the enthusiasm they show towards school projects and activities. The teachers are wonderful, very inventive and caring! IMS is definitely more that a school to us, it is a second home for our boys and we are so happy we found this place.
