Sinead has been a through and through professional at every step of the process of navigating the school registration process for our kids, from our first contact from the US through the first weeks of school in Madrid. She also linked us up with a lawyer to navigate the visa process and made suggestions for a local football club for our kids. Thanks, Sinead!

What a big relief, Thanks to Sinead!
Ours was late admission process and Sinead stood by us through the whole process and ensured we get into one of our preferred schools and completed the required formalities and also followed up with the next steps to be done by us at the school.
Sinead gave us clear guidance which helped us make our decisions easy, considering the language barrier.
We highly recommend Sinead for her complete dedication and determination who ensures we get the best service until the end. Thank you once again Sinead.

I can assure you that Sinead is the right person for you.
Since day one, she paid attention to our needs, tried to understand the constraints, and finally presented the right alternatives. She was very kind, patient, meticulous and engaging throughout the entire journey.
Thanks to her we placed our son in SEK El Castillo as a boarding student in IB diploma program.

Sinead is wonderful at what she does. She helped us research schools that were right for our children and walked us through the registration process. We would not have been able to access the right public schools without her.

From the first meeting, Sinead quickly got a grasp of what we were looking for. Being late applicants with no clue about the public/ concertado enrollement, Sinead was a bless. She took into account all our requirements and provided us with options to choose from. Not only that, she also provided reviews with recommendations and accompanied us for the registration day to help with the paper work and make sure all is in order!! We are so grateful! We highly recommend her services to anyone willing to safely enroll his children in schools here in Madrid. Thanks again Sinead ☺️

Sinead was really helpful with finding us a school and kindergarten for our kids. She immediately understood what we are looking for and in the end we enrolled our kids to a school she recommended us and that we didn't find ourselves. At the moment we are very happy.
She is very responsive and easy to talk to

Extremely helpful and professional. Sinead helped us to find a good school for our 2 kids in record time for us to be able to move from Sydney to Madrid with no worries.
We highly recommend her services to anyone.

We highly recommend Sinead for her exceptional work as a Madrid School Search Expert. She helped our daughter find a high school in Madrid as we relocated from London. Her professionalism, attentiveness, and strong network with local schools made the transition smooth and stress-free. Sinead’s friendly demeanour made the process enjoyable and we are grateful for her assistance. We wholeheartedly recommend her services to anyone in need of a Madrid School Search Expert.

We contacted Sinead because we were looking for a school that would meet our children's needs. We were relieved to find an expert in Madrid-area private schools, especially one as knowledgeable, empathetic and professional as Sinead. Our boys are now all set to attend a wonderful school in an ideal location for our family, and we couldn't be happier with the way things have turned out. Thank you for your advice, Sinead!

We worked with Sinead to find the right school for our kids in Madrid. We did this from the US and it is easy to find lots of information on schools (particularly if you speak Spanish), but we needed someone who had visited the schools and knew other families that attended the schools to get the right perspective on which school would be good for our kids. She was great in helping us eliminate and add schools for consideration, then set up the interviews with the schools and get through to acceptance. We have a great school selected and we are looking forward to attending in September.
