Escuela Ulu

Ulu is a private early childhood school in central Madrid, near Retiro Park, focused on helping children grow, learn and discover the world through play and caring relationships with educators. Its name means “to grow” in Hawaiian, reflecting the school’s approach to children’s development. Regulated by the Community of Madrid, Ulu offers 300 square metres of facilities, continuous air renewal and opening hours from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. to support families’ schedules.

The school provides educational programmes and special projects for young children, along with a digital agenda that lets families stay in touch with teachers and receive updates and photos from the school day. Its services include psychopedagogical guidance, parent talks and workshops, and extracurricular activities such as art, cooking, yoga, theatre, music, dance, storytelling and sport. Ulu also runs summer workshops in July and August and activities on school-closure days. Families can additionally arrange birthday celebrations, with options including inflatables, magicians and entertainers. A professional in-home babysitting service is described as being in development.
