Family Support Services for International and Local Families in Barcelona and Madrid

​Many families in Barcelona and Madrid seek reliable support that goes beyond a single service. At Peekaboo, we provide coordinated support for children and families through childcare, therapy, educational support and psychological assessments.

Our services are designed to adapt to real family routines, whether families need regular childcare, therapeutic support, school-related guidance or help navigating multilingual environments.

​We work with both local and international families, providing support in English and Spanish across different cultural and educational contexts.

Professional nanny and childcare services​

Peekaboo provides flexible childcare solutions for families living in Barcelona and Madrid. Our nanny services range from occasional babysitting to regular weekly support and long-term placements.

​Families often request nanny support for after-school routines, school pick-ups, evening childcare, weekends or specific periods when additional help is needed.

Nannies are carefully selected based on experience, language compatibility and suitability for the family’s routine. Many of the families we work with are international or multilingual households seeking childcare in English, Spanish or other languages.

Child therapy and psychological support​

Peekaboo works with experienced child therapists and psychologists who provide professional support for children and adolescents aged 3–18. Therapy can support children experiencing emotional regulation difficulties, anxiety, social challenges, attention differences or developmental concerns.

Support is adapted to each child’s needs and family context, with therapy available in English and Spanish. Many families seek therapy support when children are navigating multilingual environments or transitions within different school systems.

Psychological assessments​ for children and adolescents

Psychological assessments help families better understand a child’s development, learning profile or emotional needs. Assessments are carried out by qualified psychologists and may support school planning, therapy decisions or referrals to other specialists.

Families often seek assessments when children experience learning challenges, attention differences or emotional concerns that require a clearer understanding.

​Assessments are available in English and Spanish with short waiting times and practical feedback for families.

Educational support and shadow teaching

Some children benefit from additional support within their educational environment. Peekaboo provides school support services, including shadow teaching for children who require structured guidance during the school day.

This support may help children with attention differences, emotional regulation, social challenges or transitions within international school environments. Shadow teachers work closely with families and schools to support the child’s participation and development in the classroom.

Support for international and multilingual families

Barcelona and Madrid are home to many international families navigating multilingual education systems, cultural transitions and changing family routines.

Peekaboo supports families relocating to Spain or adjusting to new school environments. Our services are designed to adapt to these contexts, offering childcare, therapy and educational support in English and Spanish.

This coordinated approach helps families find the right combination of support depending on their children’s needs.

How support is organised

Every family situation is different. Some families initially contact Peekaboo for nanny support and later explore therapy or educational support. Others begin with a psychological assessment or school support and later request childcare assistance.
​Our role is to help families find the most appropriate support depending on their needs, coordinating services where appropriate and ensuring clear communication throughout the process.

Personalised support for children and families

Whether families are looking for childcare, therapy, psychological assessments or educational support, Peekaboo provides professional, personalised services adapted to each child and family context.

Our goal is to provide reliable support that helps children feel understood and families feel confident navigating everyday routines, school environments and developmental challenges.
