Director and founder, LayosCamp
Letter to parentsLayosCamp 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.
What families say
Real words from the mothers and fathers who trust us with their children.
"Tess and Jaimolas came back exhausted but HAPPY. Getting that year after year is priceless. See you next year!"
"Clara came home happy, after a wonderful experience. Your professionalism kept us reassured the whole time."
"It was the first time he had been away and he came back happy and full of enthusiasm about the experience, the friends and the counsellors. The little one is already saying he is signing up next year!"
Thank you so much for looking after our daughter so warmly. She came home delighted.
Our son came back from LayosCamp over the moon. Thank you so much to his counsellors for looking after him. We'll be doing it again next year.
Our daughter came home in love with her counsellor, with lots of new friends and eager to come back next year.
As always, our daughter was happy and wants to come back next year. Thank you for everything!
Thank you so much for this experience our son is taking home! He had a great time and can't wait to come back next year.
Our son came home delighted! He was very happy this summer in Toledo. Thank you!
Our daughter was happy at camp! A thousand thanks to her counsellors for looking after her and keeping her entertained — she had a great time.
Thank you so much, because for our daughter this was an incredible camp. As a mother I really value the details she told me about her counsellor: how she insisted on table manners and good behaviour... It has been an incredible experience that has helped her feel far more confident in herself.
Thank you so much for everything! It was our daughter's first time at a camp and she loved every minute of it.
Our daughter was happy; her counsellor and the whole group looked after her at all times. Honestly, doing a camp with you is a safe bet: you are kindness, efficiency, organisation and cheerfulness.
A million thanks for looking after our son. He comes home full of enthusiasm — and so do we!
Thank you for everything. Our son was really happy and had an incredible time.
Our daughter, as always, was delighted. She had a great time and, after all these years, has made great friends.
Thank you for looking after our son, knowing that at first he struggled to settle in. Truly, thank you. Because of the way he is he didn't want to go, and now he wants to come back next year — and one day, even be a counsellor.
Our daughter came home happier than she left, so I think the experience was a complete success. Thank you!
A thousand thanks for making these days one long celebration, and for getting a smile out of our daughter at every moment. Keep it up!
I couldn't be more grateful to have you. It was our daughter's first camp and we couldn't be happier with how it all went. She felt supported and empowered; you helped her overcome her fear of riding a bike and of joining in adventure activities. She had a wonderful time.
Thank you so much for looking after our daughter. She had a great time. A big hug.
Thank you so much to the counsellors; our daughter comes home HAPPY. The children were left wanting more. See you next year. Thank you to the whole team, from the heart!
