Thank you very much. I was searching for a list of nurseries, including some names that my wife had found, and this list has them all.
Really cut my search short.
The only way to improve this page might be to have a short description and review of each, but I know I am asking for a lot.
Thanks once again.

hi thanks for putting up this site, really helpful. i am looking for a playschool for my 19-month old son either in sharjah or dubai, but most of those i’ve contacted wouldn’t allow parents/nannies to accompany their kids in school… since i am not working i want to be able to accompany my kid to school. would u know of any playschool that allows this? i am actually NOT looking for the “daycare” type, just a venue to enhance my son’s social skills. thanks
ps. do you have the contact number of gymboree? thanks.

hi can u give me some names of nursery near burjuman my son is 17 months old i want the best 4 him please.
Hi..There is a new nursery opened in Al Mankhool called Toddlers International..Its very nice and they are having an International curriculum and it is very big with all facilities. Worth seeing the place. No is 04- 3983111
hi,
I have been to toddlers international school and seen the working of the school for 2days as i wanted to put my 2 year old daughter there,but was disappointed.Thought the place is huge but the teachers cannot handle the children well,the nursery class was in complete chaos.so mothers….think twice before you a take a decision…
And just to add to this that my son is very happy and so am I with Toddlers International Nursery. I view my child on CCtV as well and see the class flowing very well.His class teacher is very good.My child has settled in very well. I really dont think that anyone can come to a conclusion of it by visiting it for 2 days for 2 to 5 min and maybe it could be the time of the day that the children have come into their classes after an outdoor play or maybe just finished snacks. One needs to experience it and my child has learnt quite a few rhymes and colours in a very short time. Infact they are opening up a third nursery class too.My child loves going to school. Mums please make your own decisions with where you feel comfortable.
Hi Linda,
My Daughter is13 months old and I am planning to send her to nursery from next month.
I saw ur review on toddlers International. Are they still good one? or do u know any other near Burjuman. I checked British Orchard and frankly i found it to be expensive…
Please let me know
Hi..My 2.5 year old son is at Toddlers International Nursery an I am very happy with the nursery program. I dont know how anyone has gone inside the class for so long to make this judgement as I know they dont allow anyone to come inside the classrooms while school time except to peep in for a minute. I am happy with the teachers there. My child is loving his school and really looks forward to going to school. I thank the school and its management for a lovely environment for my child.

Hi
Does anyone know a nursery or a daycare centre in or anywhere around Dubai Int’l City?
Please help!
Hiii All,
I am in a problem which I consider enormous. I have a kid who is 3 years and its time for him to go to a nursery but having a very very bitter situation in a nursery earlier I am very scared of nurseries or may be my own kid. The first time i had put him in a nursery he was 1 and a half years, though too very young but it was more of his personality then his age that he caused a great deal of embarrasement for me. As he use to cry continuously for 4-5 hours, pull his hair, keep standing and refuse to interact with anyone. And some unreasonable parents wanted him to be out of the nursery. I did take him out but coz of some other reasons and after that i have never tried him in one. To be very honest I am not worried about my embarrasment but him taken as a bad boy. Besides all my efforts and tries he has become all the more difficult as he challenges authority and does not take anyone who comes in his way, always ready to fight and hit. This extremly loving at heart kid will create problems for himself which makes me sweat. Above all he would be having language barrier also which i m trying to help him with and am teaching him to undestand and speak in English. I am in dire need to know about some nursery who deals with the kids with not the typical pressurising manner but very psychologically. I just cant imagine him to be actually taken out of a nursery or him getting suppresed in order to fix his habits. PLZ HELP.
Dear Saleha,
Please never ever put your kid to the nursery called “British Orchard Nursery”. They only have lots and lots of rules which pressurize the small kids who are so sensitive. We too experienced and now we decided to take our child out of the nursery. We have proof too.
Hello Mums,
Just a quick few comments in defense of ‘The British Orchard Nursery’ and my view of pre-schools in Dubai…
I am a full time mum from who moved to dubai with 3 pre-schoolers from England, I am not a teacher but have a ‘Early years’ Degree from UK, so when looking for a school for my 3 children was of upmost priority for me and my husband. Before i arrived to dubai i contacted many nursery schools and was in contact via e-mail, British orchard was one of the best as offering clear and concise information and they sounded one of the most educated and child friendly nurseries I had contacted. When i arrived i viewed almost 20 nursery schools!!!!! to cut a long story short i chose British orchard nursery. It is amazing, my children learned so much, all have been accepted into DESS my first choice school. The teaching staff are all fully qualified, the facilities are excellent, the extra effort and time the teachers take (Miss. Minty) in particular is 100% better than i have seen within the UK, or here. The deputy Miss. Julie and principal Miss. Debbie are so approachable and eager to offer advice and support at all costs.
As for pushing the children?? My children are all first language English, so would relay almost a full day of what they had done on their way home.. is just unfair to say. The school definitely ‘teaches’ the children, but my 3 would drag me their on a morning!
We love the British Orchard and can’t think of a better nursery to recommend.
Thanks Steph

Hi , im looking for a nursery for my 1yr 7 month old in international city.
I would like to build a social circle for my chile so taht she can play with other kids during the evenings in international city.
please let me know if anyone is intrested.
This is in response to Saleha’s email.
You should consult a child specialist, who can help alleviate your concerns. Most kids do hate the thought of going away from the loving and caring set up of their home. It’s normal.
You should also try to find an institution that focuses more on child’s development through play and fun ways rather than a heavy emphasis on books and homeworks.
I may suggest Kangaroo Kids, located in two places in Dubai. My kids loved the Kangaroo Kids in India and it seems the Dubai branch also follows the same method of learning.
http://www.kangarookids.ae
Hope this helps.
Thanx a lot shahid. I definitely will go and get to know their methods and focus for child development. I really really appreciate your help.
Lots of prayers.

Hello
What is the right age at which kids are enrolled into playschool? My daughter is 16 months old. When should I go searching for one?
Are there any suggestions for schools around Bur Dubai
Regards
Hema
Linda,
Why do you keep saying British Orchard Nursery is bad!! Are you biased towards this school? And why do you keep promoting The new school opposite Sana signal?? When it has still not started! That’s all that you’ve done in your links! And You have replied to all posts on July 3rd, like a mass reply, MARKETING this new school which has not even started!!
All our friends/family children have gone to the British Orchard for the past years, and I believe the quality of child care they offer is astounding! They have all the facilities of pool, racing track, cookery room, library, small worlds area, ball pool/ soft play , to name a few.. and have also started a children’s fitness centre..
The place is absolutely beautiful, and clean .. They have CCTV , and all parents can watch them, so they have nothing to hide!!
I request you not to mislead moms!
Did your child go there? If so when, and on what basis are you basing your allegations on! Am sure the school can clarify it..
Rgds,
Wendy
DEAR WENDY,
I FEEL YOU ARE REALLYUPSET AND GETTING WORKED UP WITH ANYTHING GOT TO DO WITH BRITISH ORCHARD. CAUSE I ALSO NOTICE YOU TALKING A LOT ABOUT IT AND RECOMMENDING IT HIGHLY SO IF I HAVE TO RECCOMEND A NEW SCHOOL, IT SHOULD REALLY NOT BOTHER YOU. THIS IS A SITE FOR ALL TO GIVE THEIR OPINIONS AND NOBODY IS TO GET OFFENDED UNLESS THEY HAVE A HIDDEN INTEREST BEHIND IT. I HAVE BEED TO ARTKID AND PLEASE ASK HEENA TOO FOR WHAT SHE HAS FACED. I DONT HAVE ANYTHING WITH ANY SCHOOL BUT THE PRICING IS VERY GOOD WITH WHAT THE NEW SCHOOL PLEASE DONT GET OFFENDED. THESE ARE JUST OPINIONS AND FINALLY ONE HAS TO GO TO THE SCHOOL TO CHECK OUT FOR THEMSELVES.WE ARE NOT ARGUING OR FIGHTING ABOUT ANYTHING. THESE ARE VIEWS AND ALL ARE FREE TO GIVE THEM AS I SEE YOU TOO DOING IT IN A BIG WAY BUT IT IS NOT RIGHT TO ACCUSE ANYONE.
Also to add to the clarification, I was new to this site when I posted on 3rd July. I did not know that when I posted a comment it was shared by all. I thought that it would only reflect to the person you reply to so I replied to a couple of mumz and this was the reason my post kept coming up without me realising that. Wendy this is a very good sit for everybody to give their view points and nobody gets upset with anyone. Please dont make this site ugly for anyone and without knowing much to accuse anyone. Its a very wrong attitude and we all wish to bring out the best for everyones kids and not to get into an ugly and dirty thing of doing this.
Hi Hema
The parent would generally be the best person to judge the right age of the child. Is ur baby able to walk, say a few words properly?
I personally feel, the child needs to turn 2 – before putting them into playschool – they are able to walk and communicate a lil more better – and u also feel relaxed – whereby u can actually ask ur kid – how his day has been. U get my drift??
But nurseries do take in kids from 1yr and above…
There are several nurseries in Karama/ Bur Dubai/ Mankhool area – u cud take ur pick from there – nurseries and thier location are also listed on this website.
hope this helps
best of luck
Hi Hema and Darshi..
I honestly feel, no child is too young to grasp, and earlier the better..as the brain development is maximum in the first 5 years of a child…. The toddler/ nursery classes are very structured in good schools, and absolutely enhance the abilities of the tiny ones..
You can chk out the other schools too in Karama/ Bur Dubai, however I would strongly recommend the British Orchard Nursery..( ph 04 3983536) It has 2 branches( BurDubai and Jumeira)
Great website …www.britishorchardnursery.com.. chk out the facilities..
Cheers..

Hi all
Just want to know if the Happy Home nursery in Karama is good.. I want to admit my 2 years old son..
Please give reviews ..
thanks
anitha
Hi anitha,
Happy home nursery is an average one, i had put my daughter there when she was 2year n 6months. They have good play area n good teachers n they also have feild trips.The only concern was they dont allow u to go in n see ur child is doing not even on their birthdays! u just have to give them all stuff,cake n camera n still u cant be sure how it is going to be celebratd.They actually ruined my daughters birthday.U can check de la salle montessori Int nursery. its a good one u have their number is availabel on this site.All the best for ur nursery shopping.
take care
Hi Anitha
Plz for watever reason – Do Not put ur child in Happy Home – unless u r helpless and have no other option.
The principal there is very rude – words are less to describe her – you should ask around – u will know
I had put my son there for a trial period of 2 weeks – I honestly decided he was better off at home rather then at that place.
Bad Points –
1. My son wasnt toilet trained at that time – so he wud always have a soiled diaper
2. U cant enter the class room – at times they bring the wrong child to the door thinking he/ she belongs to u
3. the kids dont have chairs to sit
I can continue…..I will stop here
take care
Dear Vandana,
Where exactly is this nursery? As I would like to help them by going there and personally meeting them as this will help them and we must help them all.

“Hope Montessori Nursery & Day Care”
Please does anyone knows about this nursery….can anybody highlight its general review….
Kindly Help…
Dear Saleha,
I can understand what you are going thru. Nursery is not always necessary. Its his first school , what matters. So just try to calm him down. Dont pressurize on him. He is too small to understand that. Home is the first school. so you have to start from the home. first teach him to smile. dont let him cry or get angry, calm him down with a sweet smile, hug and kisses. He want to be secure first. tell him your school stories and how you used to enjoy those days. Talk to him. Dont give him anything while crying, tell him to ask you with a smile and use words “please” to ask anything. Just calm down his angers and avoid too much chocolates.
Hope i helped you.
Dear Saleha,
I dont recommend you on going to a child’s specialist.
Every child behaves the same and its up to u to take control of it by giving security to him. Dont give up so easily. He must feel accepted in his home by the way he is and changing him towards a better attitude by working and changing on our attitude. Give your child more time, affection , get close to him, ask him whats preventing him to go to nursery and take a solution for it. by providing him more love.
It is important not to tag him as a “Different Child”.
Dear Mumz
My daughter is 14 months old and actually loves kids and being around with kids. She is also very easy to handle – not the cranky types. I wanted her to start having some fun and be with kids her own age (more or less) and was hoping to start her somewhere close to the Deira / Riqqa Road / Muraqqabat area for around 2 hrs each day.
Can someone PLEASE help me and give me some informtion/feedback on this request.
I have looked up Tiny Tots and am also considering looking up the Primary Nursery. I quite liked Tiny Tots – any feedback / comments on this. The trouble with these options are the logistics to get to the place and back. Any alternative suggestions are so welcome.
Thanks…hoping for a reply soon
Could anybody give me a review with regard to Kids Talent Nursery please as i need to put my son 3.3 years – just to get the hang of school environmnet as he would be starting full fledged school from Sept. 09.

Hai everyone.
My daughter is 2 1/2 years old and we are staying between Almulla Plaza and century mall.
Kindly advise me a good playschool near by my area
thanks
Hi,
Have gone through all the comments. Creativemumz is doing a wonderful job.
My daughter is 14 months old and loves socializing. I would like her to interact with other children of her age. We stay near Al Nahda Park. Please advise on the nurseries in this area- Dubai Qusais is not a problem either. Can you please post a review on Little Princess nursery or Al Salam nursery and their contact details as well?
Hi Keerti,
I am also living in Al Nahda area near the park. And my daughter is 15 months old. I am also on the look out for a good nursery for her , as I feel she needs to start interacting with kids. Right now she does not have that opportunity.
Let me know, maybe we can set a play time for the two.

Hi,
Would anyone have an idea on the New Dubai Nursery-Mankhool and De la SalleMontessori-Bur Dubai ?
Thanks, Minnie
Hi Minnie
De La Salle Montessori is good…but the only thing is – you will end up in losing huge amount of money if you dont plan well – I will explain –
1. The Nursery year is Sept – June/July. Hence they charge an annual fee of AED 2500/- per annum. So, if you happen to put ur child in say April; u will pay the annual fee; and again in september, u will be asked to pay the sum 2500/- !!! Because the annual year would begin.
2. Again, since the year is from Sept – June; if u happen to enroll ur child in the middle of a semester (example February) – you will again pay late entry fees. So they will charge you a percentage of the full year; whihc will be more than a semester fee (approx AED 5k)
I have literally been there several times – do your calculations – and ask a lot of questions. Ask them wat if i start my kid from December…see wat they say.
The nursery is expensive…but if u start ur kid from Sept…then its fine, otherwise..believe me u will end up paying AED 12,000 for a semester.
Do your calculations …and judge for yourself.
Have you heard of Little Star Nursery – in Jafflia – near the Immigration Office – thats a nice place – no hidden costs.
Best of Luck
Dear Abie
Kids Talent Center/Nursery (in Karama) is good – I have also enrolled my child there for a month…and since you are putting your child only for a short period – its convenient and worth it.
Vandana ,
Thank you so much infact I have landed up doing just that paid like 3300/- a month(incl. transport) for 2 months now at De La Salle the reason being I really liked everything else compared the nurseries I saw in that area….but then the amount was getting on to me compared to the activities and thaught is it really worth so thaught of taking second opinion.
Little Star has a good principal but other than that it looks very sad I felt . Although, I am sure the teachers are good but the overall look of place and teachers kept me from going there, so i chose De La Salle knwoing I am paying a lot but now I am thinkiing again as Summer term starts so want to try a good nursery with nominal fees till August and then maybe De La Salle again or a school from Sept. as my son is 3 now.
New Dubai Nursery ….I liked the infrastructure, some teachers I saw are smiling, classes look bright but the the headmistress oh god ! no comments.
Planning to check out Apple International and also Kids Talent as you’ve mentioned.
Thanks once again your feedback really helped.
Hi Minnie
Any update on Apple Int and kids talent..Pl share

Sakshi
Dear Minnie,
I know of one assistant from there who had met me to babysit my child..She seemed good but that was about her. Dont know much of the school as I have never been there..
Hey Minnie
Most welcome…hehe I have really researched all nurseries upside down…
Kids Talent – I dont think u will find it suitable – it is not an open area – it is a closed apartment converted into nursery/ day care. For a temp period – it is ok. If u want ur child to have an outside play area – thn u will have to find another nursery. (Altho the nursery has lotsa kids enrolling)
British Orchard Nursery – jus behind de la salle – have u tried that…its excellent..but same rules apply with regards to fees, term dates etc. U end up paying abt 2k per month for a 3day a week class.
Little Star – I know – the first and second look puts u off…but well I heard good reviews from several mothers in my building….the staff there were really pleasant…
cheers!
Vandana
U have made our lives easier….its like we have got the butter without efforts….
Thanks so much

No 050-4268983.
Please dont ever put ur child in Orchard.British
Linda,
Why do you keep saying British Orchard Nursery is bad!! Are you biased towards this school? And why do you keep promoting The new school opposite Sana signal?? When it has still not started! That’s all that you’ve done in your links! And You have replied to all posts on July 3rd, like a mass reply, MARKETING this new school which has not even started!!
All our friends/family children have gone to the British Orchard for the past years, and I believe the quality of child care they offer is astounding! They have all the facilities of pool, racing track, cookery room, library, small worlds area, ball pool/ soft play , to name a few.. and have also started a children’s fitness centre..
The place is absolutely beautiful, and clean .. They have CCTV , and all parents can watch them, so they have nothing to hide!!
I request you not to mislead moms!
Did your child go there? If so when, and on what basis are you basing your allegations on! Am sure the school can clarify it..
Rgds,
Wendy

Dear Chulani,
We recommend you not register your child at British Orchard Nursery which is with full of rules that a child cannot bear.
Hi

That not ever happen, my 2 son go there at first only speak arabic now in english.
They love to playing there, everyday they the 1 who pull me from the bed to go!

They are the number 1. or else why i wud put my kids

Hi..I have also faced a lot ofproblem and so have my friends, The teachers r not looking after the kids as they r suppose to. The toilets are very dirty and the kidsr reallypressurised a lot..We all have removed our kids from British Orchard nursery
Linda,
I have had kid in British Orchard Nursery for more than 2yrs and they have the best teachers the place is nice and kids learn so much and are happy. Before this school start my older kid went to a jumeirah nursery that was more money more driving and my kid didnt even learn colors by the end. British Orchard has good reputation good happy kids and Im happy with it and my kid now can speak the best english, she is even now telling me the way to say things and so i deisagree with your comments and feel it is sad that you want to say bad things for this school. is the lady wendy right that you are from that new school because i think a school who has to damage the competiton with saying bad things is got nothing good to show themselves. i also see you dont say good for Art kid and that is a differant type of school for different parents, not my chioice but why do you say bad for any school except one that didnt open or have any hiostory to show?
This is just a opinion that all are giving for all mumz and its just not me there are a few more parents talking badly about a few schools including these names but again there is a mixed opinion about all. I have not experienced anything with this new school but would advise all to just have a look at it as the staff are very polite to talk to and I have nothing to do with that nursery. The facitlities and quality they are offering for the price is good. I have nothing against any nursery but its just to recommend something. I have personally gone to Artkid and have seen the way the kids have beed left unattended and crying. IThere are so many mumz sayin it on the site as well but why is it upsetting you when I am saying about British Orchard. I am very regular on this site and would like to suggest whats is best for all. Should I say that you and Wendy are also a part of British Orchardanf this is why you both are fuming and being so supportive about it. I smell some rats somewhere..This is just a site to give you opinion and discuss not to argue and accuse or blame ayone.

Dear Kimaya,
I have also suggested a few good schools like Kangaroo kids and Yellow bricks nursery. The best nursery in town is Childrens Oasis. They are good ones and there are many people here with us commenting on all different schools some good and some bad opinions but well these are just opinions but all mumz have to finally go and see what is best for their child. I am only promoting that new school cause I have gone and seen it with my own eyes and seen the pricing is very good for what they have to offer. I am active on this site and will reccomend what ever is best for all mumz. Please ask Heena as she has the same opinion for Artkid. and also 2 more mumz who have given their opinions for British Orchard. Why dont you also ask them about it as they have expereinced it. And you seem to be a silent and smart marketing person and promoter for British Orchard. Its really sad anyone to accuse someone else as we all are here to suggestand all are free to give their opinions to all. Then its each ones call to go and see the nurseries and decide..
Kimaya,
I am only suggesting to few parents who would like to know to view the new school as they have lots to offer for the price cause lots of parents areasking for good school with a good price so this was my only reason. Please note that these are only recomendations and suggestions not something anyone is sure of. One can be sure only once the school starts but they are now having an early bird offer for first 50 kids this is the only reason. Please stop accusing as this is a very good site for discussions and suggestions and dont take things so negatively as noone here has any motive as you can see that all are giving their opinions and suggestions some can be good and some can be bad.
Hi Linda

Hi, Anyone heard of Blossom and Kensington Nursery any feedback? Also do you’ll know of any good summer camps for 3 yrs old?
The list seems very good, one suggestion would be to list them into areas or add the areas they are situated in, to their names as newcomers are not familiar with it.
I am looking for a good nursery near Arabian Ranches.
My son is turning 3 in June. Also perhaps a good summer school program?
Thanks
Hi Momz ( Jessica, Vandana , vimala, Minnie, Santie…
I strongly recommend the British Orchard Nursery, for its world class nursery experience, and summer camp facilities for children.
U could check out the BurDubai( Mankool) and Jumeira Beach Road( Um suqueim 1) Branches…, or visti their nursery site http://www.britishorchardnursery.com, for a detailed insight..
They have CCTV and are definately child friendly , with great facilities and offer utmost care, and are Surely not rigid with unwarranted rules hampering children..
I also have just found out that they are having a great Gym/ Fitness club offering gymnastics/ fun exercizes and dance etc..for children through out summer…
Hello Momz,
Artkidz nursery in mankool area, does any moms have reviews of it, im planning to enroll my daughter into it…

Regards
zini
Dear Sandra,
Pls do not go for Art kid nursery in Mankhool..It is just not good for kids Believe me I joined this nursery along with my son. I mean i took a job there and left my son in the nursery in the same place thinking i wuld be close to my son, never mind compromising my career. I saw them treating kids very badly. One staff managed to hit the child. That child cried badly.Manager Ms Nilofer is worst of her kind, non co-operative and very rude.I am shocked how the nursery is running under her supervision.Pls donot risk ur child there. I took the wise decision and did not turn back.
DEAR HEENA,
I FELT THE SAME AND POSTED THE SAME. BUT I GUESS WENDY AND KIMAYA HAVE NOT LIKED THISCOMMENTS. PLEASE CLARIFY

Dear Wendy, I dont need to mislead anyone as I have been told by a few mums about British Orchard. I have personally been to this new school and seen the school and met all the staff. They are superb. I dont care about which one is better but just bringing giving my opinions as all are free to give theri views and why are you getting so upset and being so supportive about British Orchard..Cause looks like you are marketing them and promoting them more than I am doing for the new nursery. I would advise you to please go and have a look at the new nursery and then compare it to any of the schools in the near by area. Then you will know why am I talking about it so highly..
I can highy suggest Kangaroo kids and is a very good nursery. They have 2 branches one in Burj Dubai and Umm Suqueim..24,000 sq ft outdoor play area and I have gone and seen it personally. Very good and highly recoomended..
TO ALL MUM

WARNING:
I hope everyone knows about Scam Mails from Nigeria/ Africa. Seems like we have one posted right here – by a Samuel Kofi.
Yes Vandana.. Samuel Kofi’s mail seems to be a scam..
yellow breake road nursery in Garhoud is really great…..
Linda,
Why do you keep saying British Orchard Nursery is bad!! Are you biased towards this school? And why do you keep promoting The new school opposite Sana signal?? When it has still not started! That’s all that you’ve done in your links! And You have replied to all posts on July 3rd, like a mass reply, MARKETING this new school in Mankool which has not even started!! You are even criricizing ART KID!! how come your child went to both the schools?! that you have so much negative feed back about 2 Mankool schools. Are you doing negative publicity?!
All our friends/family children have gone to the British Orchard for the past years, and I believe the quality of child care they offer is astounding! They have all the facilities of pool, racing track, cookery room, library, small worlds area, ball pool/ soft play , to name a few.. and have also started a children’s fitness centre..
The place is absolutely beautiful, and clean .. They have CCTV , and all parents can watch them, so they have nothing to hide!!
I request you not to mislead moms!
Did your child go there? If so when, and on what basis are you basing your allegations on! Am sure the school can clarify it..
Rgds,
Wendy
Dear Moms,
I completely agree with Wendy about British Orchard Nursery, a great place for a ealry child to start off, but all that is good has a price, so this nursery is the “Best” if you are ready to spend good enough.
Art Kid & Little star both by fees wise are same, activities wise i had seen more in little star & all staff thr pay full attention to every child.
Now rest decision lies to you, i would say dont decide by reviews made here as each one is sharing information based only on their personal review & considering their own child & fees budget.
I hope you all agree….
Many Thanks,
Cheryl
Pls read my reply given to sandra before taking any decision.
I totally agree with Cheryl. That this is all just information shared by all and each one has different to say. Finally all parents must visit the school and see for themselves for which one will be the best for their child.To speak highly about a particular school does not mean that I am promoting it. Itsjust what I felt, I shared it which must not be taken negatively and must just be taken as a recomendation not a final decision.
Hi, after reading through nearly all of these posts it is pretty obvious that Linda is the (really bad) marketing manager for Toddlers International in Mankhool. Considering the school isn’t open yet she has a really informed opinion and I think it is disgusting how she is bad mouthing the competition. I have received many recommendations for the British Orchard Nursery and I have already registered both of my children for September.
I also went to Artkids and it was nice enough but not exactly what I was looking for.
Just because of ‘Linda’, I would never ever think of sending my children to Toddlers International.
Hi Zoe..I am not marketing theschool as I have nothing to do with that school. I know of of the teachers there called Carolina. She is really good and I myself am an educationalist. I have just understood the method that they will follow and found that very good. And to add to that I have no personal interest with that school, its just that I went and saw the school and is really big and nice. One must appreciate that and being an educationalist myself, I will love to promote any and every school that is a good one..
Hi all…
Could anybody help me out to find a play school near international city for my child who is jus 3 yrs old…We r looking for a nursery which can provide transportation to th child….kindly inform me…

DEEPTHI
DEAR ALL,
HI, CAN ANYONE LET ME KNOW IS THERE ANY GOOD NURSERY FOR MY 4 MONTHS CHILD NEAR AL WASEL ROAD AFTER BHELSA DRIVING SCHOOL JUMERIAH 2……….
I must agree with Zoe and Wendy about the extremely obvious marketing of Linda for Toddlers International Nursery. I live nearby the area and since the nursery only started painting their walls about 2 weeks ago, I’m positive that nobody knows so thouroughly about the facilities, attitude of teachers or is able to have any ‘trustworthy’ opinion about the nursery.
My child has been with the British Orchard Nursery for the past year in Nursery class and I am very happy with the school. The staff are friendly, they are very cautious in relation to child safety and care and I am always updated on the progress of my child and how he is doing during the day. I have also tried the new Gym club they have started and my son now comes home all excited and doing rolie polies around the house!
Besides this, the school provides you with a full progress report of your child at the end of the school year which is really helping me with applying for a primary school for him next year!
Dear Hala,
I am not doing any marketing for anyone. Like I had mentioned before, I have bben to that school for my childs admission and got every detailed information from them. I am a very fussy mother and extremely particular where I will put my child. Also having the education background I got to the bottom of what they will teach. I can vouch for a few nurseies like Kangaroo kids, childrens oasis, yellow bricks, emirates british. Not that I have anything to do with them but I will love to promote good schools no matter even if thats a new one, I am only talking highly about them cause of the effort they are putting n and all these schools deserve it..
Linda,
I have read your other comments as well and am sure that the people that are offended and upset in regards to your comments about British Orchard Nursery are reacting because either their child goes there or used to go there and they have had great experience – not because they are promoting the school. The nursery has already built up its reputation that is well known around Dubai. These people are here to share their experience, unlike you who, after all these comments, suddenly started promoting other nurseries too. You seem to just go around seriously badmouthing some nurseries and heavily promoting others.
One of my colleagues went to Toddlers International a few weeks ago and was not impressed. I personally do not know as I have no reason to look for a nursery for my son, but I do know that one who has not EXPERIENCED something cannot JUDGE it’s excellence. Nobody has yet experienced Toddlers International as it is not open yet, hence no comments can be given so far as they have not had the chance yet to prove themselves.
I am sure there are other great nurseries within Dubai but to each his own preference.
Dear Hala and other moms who are offended,
I would like to apologize if I have offended anyone. It is an opinion and really dont think anyone must take it so negatively. It is out of experience and things can happen for 1 in many. As noone is perfect. I too have a child and feel the same for you all do. Honestly, I dont know about the future of this new school but as I have put in all my posts that it seems to be nice for the facilities they are providing for the price. After a few months my family is moving from Bur Dubai and I am planning to put my child in Chidrens Oasis. Unfortunately, they are full. I have nothing for or against any nursery. If I dont like the new school, I would be writing in details about them too, let it be a positive or negative one. I am not favouring any school and for all parents, you all must know what is the best for your child as this site is just based on opinions. Each one to its own and you are the best judge for yourself.
Have just landed a job and am looking for sth where I can put both my children ( Matt who is 5 and is at home since school is closed for the hols and Daniel who will be 3 next month who hasn’t ventured out as yet
We live in the Qusais area – I am looking for a place where they can both be together from 8.30 to 6.00? Sun – Thurs. Development is key but caring staff more important for me.
Rachel
pls advise your feedback/comments on Emerald Nursery and Kangaroo Kidz nursery.
appreciate ur help.
Hi,
anybody knows Little Wonders nursery in Jumeriah?. Pls advise any feedback. tx
Hi All…
I agree I think that Linda obviously works for Toddlers International in Mankhool and is obviously doing a very bad promoting job for the school as in regards for competition. I went to visit Toddlers international to see about enrolling my child there and to be quite honest the school is an absolute shambles, it is very small, there was nothing but paint on the walls and to be honest it didnt have that warming feeling and they only have 10 children admitted, I would definently not be enrolling my child in that school. I then went on round the corner 5 minutes and found The British Orchard Nursery, now this school on the other hand was outstanding. Its everything a mother could want as in childcare for their children. It was a beautiful school very bright and warm and inviting. I took a tour around the school and i was amazed by the sizes on the classrooms and how clean the school was. I met with some teachers and they were very helpful and pleasent. They even have a brilliant summer club scheme that was going on when I visited and they have a Gym for the kids, i find this truely amazing. The first time I visited I enrolled my child straight away. I advise all moms out there if you are looking for the perfect school then THE BRITISH ORCHARD NURSERY is the one for you!!!!

Dear Lisa,
This is your personal opinion and I am not saying that you are promoting a particular school but rather appreciate that you are appreciating the school if you like it. I have admitted my child in Toddlers International and by no means it is small. It has a huge garden. I met the principal as well who is a very nice lady with a lot of experience. Like I have mentioned thethat I have an educational background and go to the depth and details of the research i do. If you are promoting a school that does not mean you have to be linked to it. I have been promoting it cause they deserve it for the work they are dong and I am sure they will keep up to the quality. These are just suggestions that dont need to be taken so strongly and negatively.
Dear Lisa,
I am not offending anyone but again this was your opinion. I have enrolled my child and I dont think that it is small as it hasa beautifuloutdoor area of almost 20,000 sq ft. To add to that if there are 10 children it is nothing wrong as it is a new one coming up and take it positively that maybe my child gets more attention. Yes, I do agree with you that I dont know about how it will be as we need to test it but the way the principal and staff were very nice and sounded very positive to me. I have enrolled my child and will surely share my experience with all. My posts kept showing a number of times is cause I was new and was not aware of it being seen to all I was ony replying to all who were asking me for a school with good pricing in that location. And being a mother I will always feel good wherever my child will be hapy and would promote any school if they are good.
hi, visited Little Wonders nursery and I didn’t like it. Definetely not going to enroll my kid there…….

Hi,
is anyone have idea about Smart Children’s Nursery?
one of my friends said it’s a good Nursery.I hope someone can give more information for it.
thank you
Hi Yolanda.
My child is attending that nursery. I am very unhappy and i am for sure not the only one.
Nannys dont get paid. Unprofessional informations. Fee structure getting changed all the time. Head mistress is very rude and discussing with a lot of parents. You get school letters written in hand full of mistakes.
She didnt pay summer teachers.
Last week i found 1 nanny looking after 9 children at the age of 2-3 and 4 nannys cleaning one toilet.
But for mentioning that I was told that they are grown ups (THEY ARE 2) and that i interfear with things i shouldnt be interfearing with.
Belive me when i say that your child will be better where there is structure and nannys that actually get their salary so they can buy food.
I hope you didnt place your child there. We are taking him out by dec when we leave but i wish i could do it now.
I am also in the process of selecting good nursery for my daughter (1.5y), it is veryyyy difficult…..
PLease let me know on Emerald City Nursery in jumeirah… any experience with this nursery?
Hi Moms of Mankhool Area
My final shortlist is for British Orchard and De La Salle ..Pl pl suggest few more in case any in this radius so that i dont miss out on something better …

Hi Sakshi
Thanks for ur comment
.
I think you have zeroed in on the 2 best nurseries around mankhool area. Look no further…u’ll probably end up getting even more confused. If u want to add another one to the list; then may I suggest – Little Star Nursery. (Not sure if it will be to ur liking).
So depending on ur budget, proximity, and look/feel of nursery…i guess the order wud be –
1. British Orchard
2. De La Salle
3. Little Star
All the best. tc
Thanks Vandy..

Hi Friends,
Iam living in National Paints area and start working bur dubai . please help me about some good Nursery or good learning center for my 3 year baby that also have a day care in evening . My route in morning is by emirates road to airport tunnel alkhail road and then burdubai . … please help something good on the way.
Hi Kiran,
Unfortunately there are no much options in National Paints Area, as I live there too and have struggled a lot for places to put my kids too .
Try Kidsmate in Al Ghusais, which I feel is the closest to our area . They have playschool as well as daycare facility.
Their website is http://www.kidsmate.ae.
Good Luck
Rachel
Thanks Rachel…
Little Princesses and World Nursery are also in my list to check . Now I will check Kids Mate too . Little Princesses is good but a little expensive . let see . Thanks for guidance.
Hi Kiran,

Yolanda,
Thet have no website .. I visited them on thursday .. iam sorry i didnt like it … specially their staff … they seem so sharp and all are over age indian ladies. you know kids want soft good looking nice teachers . thats why philipinas are prefered . Secondly their fee is too much .. and they are not ready at all to compromise on that . you can visit them and further check it .
Hi Yolanda
I visited Smart children nursery today….honestly confused…The principal sounds very good and sweet..
place is friendly but a little small in area….Suggest u also check out so that we both can get some clarity…
Infact i checked out on British Orchard too….
Sakshi
Hi
Its really dissapointing to see no reply ..Guys i am confused and tensed but no sharing happening…
Vandana,where r u ,i need yr suggestions……
However let me do my bit of sharing.
I visited British orchard/De la sella/Dubai nursery/Smart children.
1) British orchard-High on budget and dont know if a multi national environment prevails
2) De la sella- Neat but truely phillipenos.the accent is also like that.
3) Dubai nursery -Truely indian and strict structure.
4) smart children -good but cramped …small time affair.
there is none which satisfies all criterias…
pl suggest friends…..
Hey Sakshi
Look further and ul get confused!! The unfortunate thing here in Dubai is getting slotted …so u will always find groups and ethnicity in one area. Its a decision you need to make. Find the nursery that is spacious, friendly, caring.; hygienic. U will have to forget ethnicity here. And then decide on your budget. I too was confused…I literally ran around to the same nurseries several times..re checking it out.
Zero in on at least 2/3 best ones…and then make ur choice.
In mankhool/ bur dubai area..I think the best 3 wud be British O(britsih staff only) ; De La Salle(Filipino staff); and Little Star (Indian staff). I have heard good reviews of all 3 nurseries…and its just ur personal choice/ convenience/ budget.
I have never really checked out Dubai Nursery/ Smart Children…so cant comment on them.
But one thing I can tell u for sure…after hours of thinking….its just a nursery after all…dont fret so much….u want a safe clean hygienic place with a decent accent….thats more impt…forget the fancy stuff….ul have to worry abt school next….and trust me…its the schooling/ college years that will mould the child….i mean..most of our generation never went to fancy nurseries…but we turned out just fine!!
…..imagine great well known people in history….no fancy nurseries and some were college drop outs…so relax!!
phew…this reads like an essay….
hope this helps all the mums!!!

vandy
Dear Vandana,
I totally agree with you that one must take their decision based on their budget and convenience. These are all posts that are based on opinions and each one might have different opinions for different nurseries. Finally the moms must go and visit the school and decide for themseves as to which one will be good for their child. TC.

I’m looking out for a good nursery school in Dubai, preferably in Bur Dubai. Would anyone kindly recommend a good nursery with excellent facilities and faculty. I would appreciate a good suggestion.

Hi Karen
I have just enrolled my child into Toddlers International Nursery. I fell in love with the location and the whole setup when I visited. It has a large play area. The faculty is world class and were very interactive and friendly with my kids as well. Each child is promised individual attention. Their security measures are up to the mark, the nursery also provides a live web enabled CCTV facility for parents/guardians to view their child at all times with secure login and password. I reviewed the curriculum and found it to be world class too.
It helps a lot knowing that my child is going to have plenty of fun learning in a safe and secure environment. I suggest you visit the nursery and take a call. For more info get on to their website at http://www.toddlersintlnursery.com.
Hey Surekh,
That’s interesting. I had just enrolled my child a couple of days ago into Toddlers as well. I really fell in love with the place and know that they are going to impart a lot of good things into my child’s life. We should keep in touch and meet up since our children are going to be in the same nursery.
Hey,
thanks for your suggestion, Surekha. I will surely go have a look.
Friends,
So many discussions and arguments on Toddlers International…..I sit an old one into this stream of education ?
Is it just the looks that matter or also the standing and age of the school.
I mean the experience in the specified field…!!!!!!!!
I think thats most important…
Looks can be deceptive ,be it any place and any school..
Just a friendly advice,pl look into the track record of the school…after all its our kids ,our darlings.
Do suggest

Very true vandana….
i will check our little star…..and close it….de le sella is a no no …principal was so so irresponsible…I took an appointment and reached well on time and she went out for lunch since her hubby had come and then no news…i waited for an hour….very dissapointing….
I like smart children though British orchard is the best but tooo expensive …she is just 2 yrs ans needs to play for few hours and back…..so guess next year may be would be fine….
anyways will surely keep u guys posted on final thing…

Hi Sakshi,
My daughter is 33 months old, I would like her to attend a play school for few months before she actually starts school in April 10′.
Since I am a working mother I wont be able to actually spend days looking for a nursery hence have been reading the posts here…
I am looking for a nursery in Bur Dubai since the baby sitter where I drop Kyra lives opposite Royal Ascot. Could you please provide me with details on ” Our Little Star” I am also keen on checking out New Dubai Nursery as have heard good reviews of the place.
Please provide me with any feedback you can.
Many thanks,
Teena.
Dear All,
I am going to study at HBMEU, which is at Dubai International Academic City. I am looking for nursery that is at walk able distance or within their location.
My daughter age will be 8 months in September 2009…
Thanks!
Zubaidah, RAK
Hi Zubaidah,
I have enrolled my child at Toddlers International. Its a new school but the staff are very polite and warm. I can only suggest you to visit them and have a look. There is another one which is a very good one is Childrens Oasis but his one is not in Mankhool area. This is only a suggestion the rest is your decision.

We are relocating to Dubai early September. Can anyone recommend a good primary school or nursery that offers KG2 other than the Children’s Garden School? Our son is 5 years old and we would like to enroll him in a small school setting so that the adjustment is not so overwhelming. We will be living in the Dubai Marina area, so any suggestions in that area would be appreciated. Thanks so much.

sorry for the duplicate comment
Hi, Linda, thanks for suggesting Toddlers but I did not find anyone knowing this nursery also they are charging too much for three times a week AED8000… Do you know any other that is affordable?
My baby will 8 months inshallah…
Are all nurseries the same rate? Please advice for good nursery near International Knowledge City and affordable. I guess I will end up getting Nanny AED 600-900 pm that is more affordable.
Please advise if there is any good and affordable or reply whether all prices are the same so I will stop looking for one.
Please advise with nursery name and their rates with possible number of days and hours taking care.
British Orchard CCTV seems interesting… WHat is their rate and how many hours/timings?
Thanks!
Dear Zubaiday,
I would then suggest that you hire a nanny who will charge you this amount per month as that will be the most reasonalbe way. Most of the nurseries will be around that much as younger babies fees are more expensive. British Orchard is more expensive than this one. But I would suggest you check the price of New Dubai nursery whch is in Bur Dubai, Satwa too.
Linda, if British Orchard is charging that much it is reasonable because of their hi-tech facilities and good facilities.
Waiting for feedback from others… Please advise on nurseries near Dubai International Academic City and please mention price range.
Thanks!
Dear Zubaidah,
British Orchard is charging much more and Toddlers has the same facilities like cctv, and all the other facilities. But please check New Dubai nursery, Also you can check Gems as they are the most reasonable.
Waiting for feedback from others… Please advise on nurseries near Dubai International Academic City and please mention price range.
Hi Zubaidah,
I understand that your child is nearly 8 months .Dubai Nursury does not take infants.
U can check on Smart Children …Its not huge but ok..when i went to check that place for my 2 yr old child they had shown the infant room also that presently had 8-10 babies and nannies were busy taking care …Not veryyyyy expensive and surely lesser than British Orchard….No CCTV concept but u can visit them no of times .The prinicipal who is the owner is an experienced lady .Its in Jafflia…..close to mankhool.The nos are 04 3980074.
I spoke to few parents who had come to pick their kids and the feedback was good..Its in the business since 9 years….
Hey i am just sharing my experience,no way connected to them ,I am new to Dubai and hence understand your concern and mental worry hence…..these details…
Take care
Sakshi, thanks a lot for sharing…

Hi,

Pls comment on below 3 nurseries as I dont want to send my son to any wrong places, and believe that Education provided at the initial stages of a childs growth is the BASIC to a childs future development
1) Happy Home Nursery, Karama
2) Kids Talent Centre, Karama
3) New Dubai Nursery, Al Mankhool Road
This is a nice site. Thanks for the updates.

Hi Deepa,
My child has been to The British Orchard Nursery, located in Mankool( opp Karama), and the facilities are world class. They provide excellent child care, and are very reputed, and well established with branches in Bur Dubai and Jumeira.
A parent told me that they are Dubai’s only nursery to have a children’s gym and fitness centre.(GYMJUNIORZ..
I believe they are having great summer discounts going on for admissions, and are offering a free class of “GymJuniorz” to all visitors..( Trust me it’s worth a try..)
Call them on 3983536 or visit their website…
Smart Children’s Nursery I believe is also offering quality education..
All the best Nursery hunting( I am happy my phase is over
How about Gulf Montessori Nursery in garhoud?Is it good?
Hello Mummy’s,

Hi All,
I am looking for a Nursery school for my 33 months old daughter. I like New Dubai Nursery, Satwa but they don’t provide transportation to International City. Only if they have more kids from this place, they will provide. Kindly advice other good nurseries with transportation facility to I/C.I think mankool, karama, bur dubai area is near only they should provide transportation. I also checked Toddlers,It looks good, but only problem is they are new, they are just opening this session. And I personally feel the experience makes difference. So personally I am not in favour of Toddlers how good it may look.
Thanks,
Seema
Hi Seema
I had just finalised on the nursery for my 26 months old daughter and happened to meet a friend and a friends friend who is a teacher in Toddlers ….and finally went to visit them yesterday with the same preconceived notion that they r new but then my mind changed when i sat with the principal for exactly 1.5 hours ….and visited their place too and now have a different picture in mind…
They r surely new but teachers r experienced( i met a few) and r old in this field.secondly since they r new they would make more efforts to excel so that they establish themselves well…thirdly i directly asked them abt this hesitation and the answer was that they r tieing up with few big schools in dubai …Fourthly infrastructure ( the very minute basics) are well touched upon and taken care…and lastly cctv facility is there to monitor….
What say…? hope it makes u rethink…i am also still weighing the options.do share yr views

hi nikki,
u can check out Repton schools in nad al sheba..I have not been there but heard its nice..
Thanks Linda – my son attends their nursery already. It’s an amazing school but only has one nursery year 3/4. I am now looking at nursery schools for my toddler in the Um Sequim 3 area as that quite easy to get to from where we are.
I understand that the Knightsbridge nursery is very good but I dont know if it’s closed down and reopened as Blossom Nursery or there are 2 nurseries. Do you know of any other nurseries around there that are meant to be very good.
I have heard mixed reviews about London & Paris and Emirites British Nursery so not so sure.
Thanks!!!
Hi Nikki,
Emirates british is a good nursery..The only thing I can tell u is that every different person you will talk to, will give u a different opinion. U should do what u r comfortable with and which nursery u like..The most important is faith, hygiene, security and also the learning..So u should see it for yourself and decide..But emirates british is suppose to be a good one..U can also check out Safa Nursery..
Dear Nikki,
You can check out Kangaroo Kids or even the British Orchard Nursery( Um Suqueim Branch). My child goes to their Bur Dubai Branch. They offer excellent childcare, and have state of the art facilities. You can call them on 043953570. I believe they have summer promotions for their Gym club, and early bird discounts going on as well..
Cheers…
Hi Wendy ,
I am eager to speak to a parent whose child is in British Orchard.
Would u be comfortable in sharing your nos ….if its ok with you.

Dear Sakshi,
This is exactly what I wrote earlier that I too had spent a lot of time with the principal of Toddlers International and met one of their teachers and they all seemed excellent and I asked them lots of questions and they knew what they were going to do. They seemed excellent to me and also for the rest of the things. I somehow liked their place too, ample of parking and big open space..get good vibes..I too think since they are new and of what I saw of them they are putting in lots of effort too..

Hi mums and teachers.
I am desperately looking for a kindergarten or my son. I beleive KG2 or foundation 2 is his level. He is turning 5 in november. I live in umm suqeim jumeira. most of the surrounding schools are full. Well , all of them claim to have a waiting list. The prices are also around 30k minimum for his age which is absolutely RIDICULOUS. Anywho id love some recommendations for schools that have a seat for him around my area. He is extremely intelligent and finished last year at british orchard.
Hi ,
I’m in Ghusais area and looking for some good nursery for my 3 year old daughter, can anybody please help me out.
Hi,
I am looking for a nursery in Deira that will take care of my 1 year old daughter from 8:00 am to 5:00 PM. I am a working mom in Jebel Ali and it is difficult for me to send my daughter to nursery school far away from home which is in Deira. Please do call me at 050-1481834 or 050-9437689 if you can help me out.
Thank you.
Hi Mums
I live in Deira – Al muteena (opposite Reef Mall). And i have an almost 2 yrs old.
Are there any good nurseries in this area. I need to get back to work by end of the year so need some place where he can play and be taken care of. My workplace is close to where i live (Creek).
After reading the above post i have zeroed on
DEIRA:
Happy kids
Primary
Tiny Tots
Would love to have info / opinions/ experiences etc.. on the above nurseries. And are there any i am missing out in this area which are good.
BUR DUBAI:
British Orchard – But this seems nice but really expensive !!
Does it make sense to spend so much for a nursery? Does a good quality nursery education help a child to get into a good school?? Because me & my husband feel school is more important than nursery. But then times have changed and so has our place (we grew up in india way back in 80’s when things were different while this is Dubai & 2000’s)
Wow – that was a long mail i hope somebody reads it and has the patience to reply.

Hello!
A quick email to say that The Children’s Garden (multilingual pre-school for 2 – 5 yr olds) has just opened its new branch in Jumeira, near Dubai Ladies Club. English and French are the two languages of instruction, with equal emphasis being given to each, and Arabic is also delivered as an additional language. The website is http://www.tcgjumeira.ae, in case you’re interested.
I work there, and have been working in Early Childhood Education for numerous years, and my experience combined with my wider research and reading means that I firmly believe that the nursery / pre-school years are the MOST important of anybody’s life, because these are our most formative years – so it’s important to get it right!
As with anything, if you lay good, strong foundations, it’s easier to build a success – and the same goes for education.
Good luck to all you parents out there facing education decisions! My advice to you is to do your market research: VISIT all the pre-schools you’ve heard good things about and really ask the admissions staff about the school philosophy and what their expectations are of the children who attend. If it reflects your own values and aspirations, that has to be a good sign…
Good luck!
Hi all,
I have been to New Dubai Nursery , near Satwa. We really liked the place and is now planning to take admission.
But before we completely make a decision, need comment from all Mums who have experience sending their kido to New Dubai Nursery.
Also pls comment on Little star Nursery.
Appreciate a fast reply as we need to make a decision soon.

Dear all,
Am looking for a playschool in Ghusais for my 20month boy.
My problem is that I need a school with transport facility which limits my options. Love and Care Nursery seems to provide one and was wondering if anyone has any feedback to give regarding this nursery.
Anxious mum
Bhavna
Another update, am going to check out World nursery as well..so if anyone has any feedback regarding either of the two do let me know
Thanks
Bhavna
Love and care nursery is a sister concern of little princess nusery (near al twar center, qusais).
World nusery also seems ok. thats opposite al bustan center.
Another one is Kidsmate ELC, near NMC, Qusais. My little one is in there.
Thanks a ton for ur response
)Bhavna
are u happy with kidsmate?how old is ur child?do pass on the number plssssssssssssss
do they have transport facility?
too many questions
KIDSMATE ELC IS CRAPPY. MY LITTLE ONE WAS ALWAYS ILL IN THAT NURSERY AND THE OWNER IS EXTREMELY RUDE.
My baby is one&half year old.She is very anxious to know,to learn and to communicate with others.So we thought a play school will be the right place for her .Being a qualified graduate ,also a person who can take care of the children with concern,understanding their psychology ,I wish to work in the same school.
I would be happy if it is in and around Dubai International City.

Pls chek their website http://www.kidsmate.ae. you may contact Alice 0508806456. Just go and see the place and take a decision once you are fully convinced.
They do provide transportation.

hi,
i am in DUBAI MOTOR CITY and looking for a nursery for my 2 year old daughter..can anyone help me out???????
Hi,
Any nursery close to Dubai Silicon Oasis where i can admit my 2 year old son…
Please help!
I live in Jumeirah Lake Towers. My daughter is 1 year old and I am thinking of starting work again. I browsed through some of the popular nurseries and was shocked by the prices!!!Does it really cost 30.000 per year to take care of a few 1,2 year olds for a few hours a day???
I was wondering if someone knows any nurseries with British speaking teachers in the area of JLT or Dubai Marina?
Or alternatively are there any play groups, or would there be any interested mothers to start a play group?
er, yes, it would appear it does cost that much! I too am astounded, but there you go.
I’m in the Marina and there are quite a few M&B groups with various activities, but none (so far) where you do not have to be present. Do a search for Facebook groups to hunt them down… and maybe we’ll see you around one day!
Hello to all,

hi,
i have been reading great reviews of Toddlers International Nursery situated in Mankhool from Linda. is there anyone else who’s placed thier kid at Toddlers. need to make sure my kid gets the best considering the ridiculous fees the schools charge.
any valuable feedback would be greatly appreciated.
I saw a lot of discussion here with regards to British Orchard and Toddlers International Nursery. My daughter is 2.5 and very, very happy with Toddlers International. We were a little bit hesitant to enroll her there as this is a new nursery so we shortlisted few other nurseries – British Orchard, Small World, Emerald City but finally made very good decision and enrolled her in Toddlers International. The nursery is great, teachers and principal are very dedicated, they give us regular feedback on our kid’s progress. If you go there you will feel warmth and love and see a lot of smiles on the faces of the children, very friendly staff and all in all very healthy atmosphere. My daughter has learned a lot of new things – rhymes, colors, numbers, letters and her English even blossomed after only 3 months there. Program is great, facilities are great, they have beautiful huge open space area for kids. In British Orchard we didn’t like dusty, small outside play. area for kids with no fresh air and natural grass. I give Toddlers International Nursery my highest recommendation.
Thx for the amazing feedback Hena.
Hi Hena,
It’s great that your child has adapted well…as is the case with most nurseries.. However I thought I would just like to clarify on the outside area of The British Orchard, as my little one loves it there.. they have an approx 12000 sq feet of outdoor area( which is big for a Dubai nursery standard), with 2 large swimming pools, sand pit, track area, etc, including 2 huge halls of indoor play areas, and a separate large specialized gym and fitness centre, so in my opinion with the hot climate of Dubai for most of the months, to have a good sized indoor area is imperative.
They are also well established with branches in Jumeira too( which makes future transfers for unforeseen shifting easy) and the British Curriculum they teach is well recognized, and I have been extremely happy with my child’s progress and regular feedback and reports are given to me… They charge their fees for the quality service they provide ,the great facilities they have and are therefore BurDubai’s biggest nursery with so many happy parents, students and exstudents…
Just wanted to share a happy mother’s experience with all just like you…
Cheers to the happy moms all around.. and happy hunting to the others..

hi….i live in nahda 2 ghusais and im looking for a play school for my son who is 21months now.
In AL nahda 2, there is a good playschool called Kidsmate early learning center.
KIDSMATE is not so good. My little one was always ill in that nursery and plus the owner of the nursery is very rude. Not recommended.
hi aaliyah,
Oh is it? My son is very happy there and doesnt get ill at all. it depends on the kids as well.
And I am surprised to hear that they were rude to you.
anybody aware about Dubai Infants school in Bur Dubai,very near to St.Mary’s Church.
I am planning to send my 2 year old son there and would like to know if anybody has experience sending their children there?
Hey Rupali,
I have been interested in the idea of starting my own nursery school for sometime. I would love to have something with the Krishnamurthy philosophy, i.e allow the curiosity and interest of the child lead him into his own learning. My sister studied in such a school in India and not to say it turned its passouts into successful, confident and content entrepreuners of the society… they are still bounded by the years of togetherness and fun learning they’d had. I would love to have my children be in such a place but here in dubai.
I would be great to have a partner to work along with in such an enterprise.
So call me or write to me at harjas36@hotmail.com if you are still interested.
Minnie

Dear Minnie,
Great to know that we share common interests!
There is a lot of groundwork that needs to be done in order to start a nursery/day care centre.I will contact you soon and we shall discuss on a workable plan to action on this soon as currently i am travelling.
Till then if time permits do some research on legislations and licensing requirements etc.
Also i would love to know more about Krishnamurthy philosophy and how we can include it in our teachings for children.Please stay in touch via mail as of now.
Have a great day ahead.
