At Chiquitos, our mission is to embrace each child's spirit and challenge their mind, while fostering the development of the whole child in an ambiance of complete Spanish immersion. We seek to support children through their discovery of the world with all their senses. Chiquitos School supports the whole child development through its very own approach created by the director and founder of Chiquitos, Isabel Lainez. This approach is based on stimulating the fundamental and inherent elements of the child. While embracing each element of the child, he/she is able to develop in a safe, loving, and wholesome environment. This approach is individualized and developmentally appropriate to each child's needs, thereby instilling a love of learning.
