About Us
Lauren’s Playschool on Bishopscourt Road is a warm, home-based playschool in Claremont, Cape Town, offering a gentle and nurturing space for young children to grow, explore, and develop with confidence. Thoughtfully run from Lauren’s home, the environment is calm, personal, and intentionally designed with little ones in mind — creating a true “home away from home.”
At the heart of the playschool is Lauren Spagnoletti, a qualified playschool teacher with over 16 years of experience running her own school. She has also facilitated the emotional intelligence programme Heart Matters at schools such as SACS and Rondebosch, bringing a strong focus on emotional development, connection, and self-awareness into her daily teaching.
Lauren has a deep love for the 2–4 year age group, recognising this as a key stage where children begin to develop their own unique personalities. Her approach is rooted in play-based learning, allowing children to learn through exploration, creativity, and meaningful interaction — while being supported to grow at their own pace.
The outdoor space is a special highlight. The garden includes a trampoline, swings, sandpit, and playhouse, creating a rich environment for imaginative and active play. On sunny days, the area is beautifully shaded by trees, and a soft play setup is added to encourage safe movement and fun.
With very small group sizes, each child receives individual attention and care. Every little one is treated with love, respect, and kindness, and is supported in a safe and secure environment where they feel seen, valued, and free to grow in their own special way.
