We live in Tel Aviv and We Love It . . .But sometimes we want a place to go for a change of scenery. We want a place we can feel comfortable in our own skin, reminisce about New York and London and meet some friendly adult faces. We want a space that offers quality classes and allows our kids to run around and play with others, and . . . we want it in our neighborhood. CityKids is founded by an English speaking, Tel Aviv, Nanny who understands what it is like to have insufficient engaging places to take your kids in the White City.
CityKids is all-in-one education and play space for families with children newborn-13 years old. We have a library with over 1,500 of our children’s favorite English books and we offer a variety of classes from art to music, movement, infant massage, gym and language, all taught by highly qualified teachers. We strive each moment of every day to be the ultimate safe, clean and fun English speaking resource for Tel Aviv families to gather, learn, socialize and play.
