Indoor Playground with Nanny
& Family Café in Lisbon
🏰 SandCastle is a cozy indoor space in central Lisbon for children aged 0–8 and their parents. We offer a creative playground, family café, and nanny supervision. Parents can stay, work, or relax on our garden terrace — or drop off kids 4+ for flexible care. No reservation needed, just pay by the hour for playtime. We also host birthdays, workshops
🛝 Space
Sandbox, slides & imagination zones for calm, creative play — with a sensory sandbox, role-play corners, and soft climbing zones to support motor skills and imagination. No trampolines, no noise — just thoughtful setups and eco-friendly toys. Kids play under gentle supervision and often leave with a craft they made themselves.
🥳 Celebrations
A stress-free birthday for both kids and parents.
It’s hard to find a place in Lisbon that works so well for little ones aged 2 to 5 — where the kids are truly entertained, and parents don’t have to stay on duty.
At SandCastle, children enjoy free play under gentle supervision, while adults relax in a private room or out on the garden terrace (BBQ-friendly)
☕️ Cafe
At SandCastle, we serve specialty coffee, curated herbal teas, and a short but high-quality menu of fresh desserts, crêpes, and light brunch options.
It’s a great place to meet friends, take a breather, or get some work done — all while the kids are happily entertained nearby.
🧘🏼♀️ Drop-Off
This is not a preschool or a nursery, but a flexible alternative. If your child is 4 or older, you can leave them with us for half a day or even the whole day.
The format is similar to our regular hourly visits, but with extra care: we look after your child and share photos with you meals can be arranged if needed a safe and cozy space for the entire day
💶 Price: €50 per day (a better deal if staying more than 4 hours)
🧑🏼💻 Coworking
A quiet space for parents who still work — even with little ones around.
Our coworking area has strong Wi-Fi, good coffee, and live cameras showing the playroom, so you can focus and stay close at the same time.
It’s a perfect setup for remote-working parents, families traveling through Lisbon, or those whose kids aren’t in school yet.
🎨 Workshops
Our creative workshops go beyond simple crafts.
Led by designers and artists, each session becomes a small story — with real materials, imagination, and hands-on discovery.
These workshops are offered on select days and can also be added to birthday celebrations on request.
