Family & Kids Services

Raising a family in Costa Rica offers incredible opportunities for children to grow up connected to nature, exposed to multiple cultures, and fluent in multiple languages. The Family & Kids Services category helps parents find the support they need—from trusted childcare providers to enriching activities and educational resources.

Expat families will find tutors who can support homeschool curricula, help children transition to local schools, or provide language instruction in Spanish or English. Local families can connect with activity providers offering everything from surf lessons and art classes to music instruction and martial arts.

Our network includes experienced nannies and babysitters, licensed daycare providers, and skilled tutors who understand the unique needs of international and bilingual families. Many providers offer flexible scheduling to accommodate busy family lives in the Southern Zone.
