💙 Welcome to Playgroup Firenze

Founded in 2011, we are the first fully English preschool in Florence.
Playgroup is a joyful, international community where children grow, play, and learn in English every day — from their very first words to their first little stories.

🌸 Who we are

Our school welcomes children from 12 months to 5 years old.
At Playgroup Firenze, we speak only English with the children — every day, in every activity.
Through songs, stories, routines, and play, English becomes a natural part of their world from the very beginning.
We believe children learn language best when they live it — surrounded by warmth, care, and joy.

🌿 Our philosophy

We believe children learn best when they feel happy, safe, and loved.
Our approach blends British early years principles with Italian creativity and warmth.
We value exploration, kindness, and connection — children learn through play, through wonder, and through the relationships that surround them.
