The problem

El Nido Edu Play is an indoor playscape and play-based learning centre at Brigade Orchards, Devanahalli, in North Bangalore, founded by Silvia Augustine Benito, a parenting coach with a background in psychology and early education. The space uses natural wooden structures and open-ended toys, draws on Waldorf and Montessori principles, and invites parents to play alongside their children. Its customers are parents of children aged from 18 months to eight years. Many will not have seen this kind of space before, so they need to understand the thinking behind it, see which programme suits their child's age and book a visit. The website had to explain the approach, set out the programmes and lead parents to booking or a conversation.

What we built

We built the site around a single long home page that walks parents through El Nido, with menu links to each part: Vision & Mission, Core values, What we do, the events calendar and About Silvia. It opens with the name, Spanish for “The Nest”, and the indoor playscape, then makes the case for play and sets out the vision, the mission and three core values: joy, belonging and connection.

What we do sets out the programmes by age: the Little Nestlings Playgroup for 1.5 to 3 year olds, workshops for children aged 3 and above, the playscape for 1.5 to 8 year olds, parenting support through online workshops and one-to-one coaching, and community gatherings for holidays. Book Play Pass and Join now buttons lead to the centre's online booking system, and private event hire is marked as coming soon. An events calendar, the founder's story and a gallery follow. The footer carries the Devanahalli address, phone, email and links to Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn, and an Enquiry Form page sits in the menu.
