    I had my children in this nursery for the past few years, the nursery is way better than before, a great variety of educational activities that my kid enjoys, out door playing and staff is very friendly and amazing namely the manager Ms Christel and Ms Ebtisam, I can them all but they are all good, they teach them Arabic and Quran in addition to English which is a bonus, most importantly my kid wants to go every day which is the best sign.

    Sorry not signing up again, not recommended at all. I never got a profile or achievements end of term file for my son work. All photographs were shared in the app for example i would notice one drawing for the same 15 kids which make me wonder its a fake activity?. They were contacting the nanny instead of the real mam sometimes which is me for any update which not professional. Bus wasn’t available last month in the term due to the end of contract with the bus company. If bus had accident or not available due to maintenance they don’t notify the family before. Camera access where given late, and connection quality was poor unknown your kid from far which is useless. There is some bullying happening between kids which assistance cant control if the class have so much students. I thought its one of the best Nursery as recommended by family but later apparently i understood its only the worst branch of all dana nursery. Also there wasn’t any Arabic teacher for Quran classes or Arabic class.

    Clean, nice nursery with big play area, my son is comfortable with staff which indicates they are friendly with him. The biggest advantage of the nursery, 3 days a week there is speech therapy sessions from Euphoria Medical Center in the nursery. They do nice activities such career day, teacher day, national day, color day… etc. also they take kids to trips to fish market … etc.
