English language clubs for young children

[Rick Rogers]

Hi Everyone,

I'm Rick, originally from the UK, who's arrived in Buenos Aires with my Italian wife and our 18 month old daughter, Sophia. I've spent the last 10 years in Italy teaching English, but for now I'm enjoying being a student and learning Spanish at the UBA in Recoleta.

I'm interested in knowing if anyone knows about any English language clubs for young children which are actually run by people who are native English speakers? I'd like my daughter to meet up with other kids who speak English and have English mother tongue parents.

It seems like all of the creches and kindergartens in BA advertise that they are bilingual but the staff are never mother tongue English speakers.

Anyone got any advice for me? I live in Recoleta.

If no such groups exist then I'd be keen at looking to organise informal get togethers for the kids to stay together in a real English speaking environment.

Thanks, Rick Rogers
