Why We Were Created

Spanish Tots & Bebés was created from a passion for language, music, and early childhood development.

After living in Spain for 14 years, founder Lauren experienced first-hand the beauty of bilingualism and the confidence that comes from speaking another language. When she became a mum, she wanted to create something different, a space where little ones could be introduced to Spanish in a way that felt fun, natural, and full of energy.

Spanish Tots & Bebés was born from that vision: combining authentic Spanish language exposure with music, movement, and sensory play to give children the very best start.

A dream come true

Laurens story

Moving to Spain at the age of 11 without knowing a word of Spanish presented challenges. It was a tough and overwhelming experience adapting to a new way of life and finding the confidence to learn and speak the language. And let me tell you at that age, I wasn’t initially interested and even disliked it. Did my parents leave it too late?

After a few years and completing my GCSEs in Spain marked a turning point, leading to fluency in both written and spoken language, something I now take great pride in!

That experience shaped me.

When my son was born in 2020, I was determined that language learning would feel different for him. I introduced Spanish from day one, through play, music, and everyday moments. Watching how naturally he responded made me question why language learning is so often delayed in the UK, when children are clearly capable of absorbing it so much earlier.

Spanish Tots & Bebés was created from that realisation.

Now, after five years of building the business, I am incredibly proud to be expanding through franchising. We have an amazing team of passionate franchisees, each bringing their own energy and personality while delivering the same high-quality, engaging experience to families in their communities.

Being voted “Best for Kids 2023” (as featured in the Wirral Globe) was an incredible milestone for the business. We were also proud finalists in the WhatsOn4Kids Awards in 2024 and in 2025.

In 2025 our North Liverpool franchisee, Ellie, achieved “Highly Recommended”  a true testament to the passion and dedication within our growing team.

While these achievements mean so much, what excites me most is what lies ahead as Spanish Tots & Bebés continues to grow and reach even more families.

With over 500 children under the age of 5 attending our sessions weekly, I can confidently say they all have the ability and confidence to speak and understand basic Spanish. And this is what it’s all about.
