About Kid’s Island Nursery Dubai
Based in Jumeirah, Dubai, Kid’s Island Nursery offers a progressive, play-based British Curriculum that allows children to start their journey in education in a developmentally appropriate way. In turn, this creates a life-long love of learning in children and sets them up for a bright, successful future!
Our highly qualified teachers practice our own pedagogy, ‘The Inspire Philosophy’, which draws inspiration from Forest Schooling, Montessori, Reggio Emilia and Waldorf kindergarten approaches; enabling children to learn through their natural curiosity and inspire exploration and discovery.
Settled in the heart of Jumeirah, we have carefully curated our indoor and outdoor classrooms to feel warm and inviting. This gives those who enter our nursery walls the very same feeling of safety you get from walking into your own living room at home. Our nature-rich environments cater to children who are crawlers to 4 years old (Foundation Stage 1), providing them with learning opportunities that encourage a sense of wonder.
