Childcare in Barcelona Spain

Whether you've elected to up sticks and move to the sunny climes of Catalonia, or you're just here in Barcelona on holiday there will undoubtedly come a time when you'd rather spend a few hours without those delightful but noisy darlings you brought into this world - especially if you're planning a romantic evening in one of Barcelona's restaurants!

Childcare however is no business to be taken idly, and it's important to find the right people to take care of your kids, whether you just need a babysitter for the night, or you're looking for a live-in au pair or nanny.

When you're abroad the anxiety of leaving your child in someone else's care is naturally higher than usual, so at Barcelona Life we've tracked down some of the childcare agencies that can supply you with the kind of responsible and professional childcare specialists you're looking for. Obviously if you're not from Spain you may require an English-speaking (or French or German-speaking etc.) babysitter/nanny, and the agencies below will certainly be able to help!

Childcare Service Agencies

World Class Nannies
This specialist agency has a screening process that would put Mary Poppins through her paces, and their carers are rigorously selected via face-to-face interviews and background checks. Their aim is to provide babysitters, au pairs and nannies who are genuinely passionate about their job (not just desperately seeking work in Barcelona!), highly qualified and a truly positive influence on your kids. In addition all of their childcare specialists hold degrees and most speak two or more languages, perfect if you're an expat living here and you want your children to speak both English (or another native language), and Spanish. ***Now Closed*** (We're currently searching for new agencies to recommend).
