Letter to parents

LETTER TO PARENTS

LayosCamp is a family business, and we give it all our time. It was born in 1985, out of childhood memories of American camps. We believe that is the ideal model for any child to have a happy first experience away from home. So we set out on a venture that today brings together children and young people from all over the world.

Life at camp is a golden opportunity for a child's all-round development, because they begin to fend for themselves in the elementary things: getting dressed, eating, getting up, keeping tidy and clean… They do it alongside children in the same position, and almost without effort they gain an independence and a self-discipline that would astonish many adults.

Add to those small things a first taste of a sport, time spent in nature, the adventure of doing new things, the ability to live simply, generosity and life together, and children come home "bigger" and more aware of what they are capable of. Today more than ever we believe in the good our work does, and we see it day after day in LayosCamp's former campers — which makes this a project worth working for and worth living for.

JA Jacobo A.LayosCamp Toledo · summer 2026
Thank you so much for looking after our son during his stay at Layos. Likewise, thank you to all the coordinators and the team who make Layos such a special place, one our son wants to return to every year and that his older brothers miss now that they've grown too old to go as campers.
GM Graciela M.LayosCamp Toledo · summer 2026
Even before we picked them up, we spoke to our son on the phone and he asked us whether he could come back next year. We can't wait for him to do so. At his age, the experiences he has leave more of a mark on him than before, and this has been one of the very positive ones. Thank you so much!
JA Jacobo A.LayosCamp Toledo Junior · summer 2026
It's a really well-organised camp, the kind where you truly feel you're leaving your children in good hands. As a mother, what matters most to me is feeling that everything is under control, that they're well looked after and, above all, that the children are safe. You can really see the work, attention and affection behind everything. Thank you so much, truly, to the whole team.
CP Celia P.LayosCamp Gredos · summer 2026
Thank you so much for giving our son such a wonderful summer holiday; these are memories that will never fade. He always comes home very happy, and he loves the end-of-camp Olympics. Thank you.
MV María V.LayosCamp Gredos · summer 2026
Our son went off to camp in tears because he found it so hard to be apart from me, so it was a huge relief to see him in the photos looking so happy, joining in all the activities and completely settled in. In the end he had a fantastic time and has come home delighted. Thank you so much for your patience, for your affection and for helping him enjoy the experience so much. ❤️
