I have been taking my daughter to Dibber (sustainable city) since beginning of September and I couldn’t be happier! She cried at the beginning (1st 3 days) but her teacher, Ms. Anecelle, was so attentive to her and soon formed a great bond with her. The beginning was gradual and it was advised by the nursery, to make the transition as smooth as possible. I told her teacher that it was important for me was that my daughter feels safe when I take her there and I am happy to say that my daughter is the one who’s excited to go to the nursery every day. She asks about her teacher and her learning assistants in the classroom (who also have been angels since the very start). So a great thank you to Ms. Anecelle who is always smiling and always so warm with the children. She also plans amazing lessons and I have seen a great evolution in my daughter’s knowledge and skills since the start of the year. She is an amazing teacher and educator and even a better person! She also always chats with me at pick up to tell me about my daughter’s day which is reassuring in every way. As of my daughter’ss learning assistants Ms. Tanya, Ms. Taru and Ms. Izzy who she can’t stop talking about. They are loving and caring and they always hug my daughter when she needs it, and this has warmed my heart. And finally, a special thank you to Ms. Loujain, the branch manager, who knows each child by name and who is very welcoming and helpful when needed. So, I would completely recommend Dibber nursery a 100% over.

My daughter absolutely loves her time at Dibber Nursery in Sustainable City, especially in Jade Class with Mrs. Ritchell. The environment is warm, nurturing, and full of fun learning experiences. Mrs. Ritchell is such a kind, patient, and creative teacher — she truly cares for each child and makes them feel special. I’ve seen amazing progress in my daughter’s confidence and social skills. We’re so happy to be part of this wonderful nursery family!

I am very impressed and very happy with the nursery. My daughter is in Amber class currently and the teacher made sure she feld welcomed and safe. She understood the specifics approach my daughter needed and settling qent so smooth. My daughter now asks to go to nursery. Helper ladies are fantastic too. Any small issue or insecurity that I may have had, I spoke up and addressed it. It was immediately well received and investigated or corrected. Really happy with everything.

We couldn’t be happier with Dibber Nursery in Sustainable City, Dubai! The entire approach is beautifully centered around the children’s emotions and individual needs, creating such a nurturing and positive environment. A special mention must go to my daughter’s incredible teacher, Mrs. Nehla Moulana. She has been extraordinary, so gentle, patient, and truly in tune with each child. She supported my daughter with so much care during her adaptation period and made the transition into a group setting feel safe and joyful. What amazed us most is how effortlessly she guided our daughter through potty training all done gently and respectfully, without pressure. We are so grateful to have found a place like Dibber, and especially someone like Mrs. Nehla, who genuinely cares and connects with the children. Highly recommended!

Our daughter, Ella, attends Dibber The Sustainable City Nursery, and we could not be happier with our choice. From the very beginning, she has loved her teacher, the teacher assistants, and everything about the school. As parents, we are truly impressed by the level of professionalism, care, kindness, and friendliness shown by every member of staff. It is clear that the team not only nurtures the children’s development but also their emotional and social growth. The environment is warm, supportive, and incredibly well-structured, giving us total peace of mind. Ella receives the perfect balance of stimulation, early education, and social interaction in a safe and caring setting. We see her thriving already, and it’s wonderful to know she is in such a positive environment. We wholeheartedly recommend Dibber The Sustainable City Nursery to any parent seeking a place where their child will be cared for, inspired, and truly valued.
