About this nursery
Giggles Nursery in Doha, Qatar, provides a nurturing, safe, and stimulating environment for young children to play, learn, and grow. Welcoming children from 2 months to 4 years old, the nursery adheres to the highest standards of care and education, following the UK Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) curriculum. This comprehensive approach supports children's development across seven key areas, including communication and language, physical development, personal, social, and emotional growth, literacy, mathematics, understanding the world, and expressive arts and design. The nursery offers a structured program with distinct classes tailored to different age groups: "Baby Star" for infants aged 2 to 12 months, "Tiny Cubs" for 1 to 2-year-olds, "Tweenies" for 2 to 3-year-olds focusing on independence and foundational skills, and "Biggies" for 3 to 4-year-olds preparing for 'Big School'. Giggles Nursery believes in learning through play, incorporating a special combination of "Mother Goose" and "High Scope" School Readiness Programs. Activities are varied, theme-based, and thoughtfully planned to develop both gross and fine motor skills, including water play, and balanced indoor and outdoor play areas. Specialist teachers also provide physical education, language classes, and Quran lessons. Safety and well-being are paramount at Giggles Nursery. Facilities are regularly monitored, and the premises are equipped with a camera system covering all areas. A full-time guard is present at the gate, and regular fire drills are conducted. The nursery maintains a strict sick-policy with a full-time qualified nurse who checks children upon arrival and throughout the day. A nutritionist is also on-site, with monthly doctor's visits to ensure comprehensive health support. Parents are kept informed of their child's progress and daily activities through the iCare app, facilitating ongoing communication with staff. Giggles Nursery aims to be a welcoming "second home" where children feel happy, confident, and well-cared for.

My daughter attended this nursery for nearly two and a half years, and it truly became a second home for her. She learned so much during her time there, thanks to the wonderful teachers: Ms. Steph, Ms. Princess, Ms. Sonia, Ms. Jane, Ms. Nina, Ms. Aisha, Ms. Martha, and Ms. Jessica; each of whom showed so much care, patience, and dedication. The admin team, especially Ms. Lucy, was incredibly supportive and always prompt in following up on any concerns. Throughout my daughter’s entire time at the nursery, she never had a single accident, which speaks volumes about the level of care and supervision. There are always plenty of staff members on duty. The activities are creative, theme-based, and thoughtfully planned to develop both gross and fine motor skills. There is a great balance of water play, outdoor and indoor play areas, all according to weather conditions. While the nursery is on the pricier side, it is absolutely worth it for the peace of mind; you truly know your child is safe, happy, and well cared for. The only downside for me was the newer payment policy requiring a full month’s fee even if a child attends only one week, which felt a bit extreme. Overall, it’s an excellent nursery, and I’m very grateful for the care and love my daughter received there.

My daughter has been in the nursery for about a year, and it has been an excellent experience in terms of care and education. I have seen a remarkable change in my daughter's personality for the better. The staff is outstanding, compassionate, and treats each child as if they were their own. I would especially like to thank my daughter's teacher, Aisha. My daughter still talks about her, and she has played a significant role in shaping her character. I highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a nurturing environment for their child. The dedication and passion of the staff make a world of difference, and I am grateful for the positive impact they have had on my daughter's development.

We are so incredibly happy with the care our baby receives at Giggles! As new parents, it’s such a relief to know that our little one is in such safe, loving hands every day. Our baby recently started solids, and the team has been amazing at supporting that transition. They make sure mealtimes are calm and positive, and always let us know what and how much our baby has eaten. It’s so reassuring to see how well they handle feeding routines with such care and patience. Ms Alice and Ms Rachel pays so much attention to each and every baby there - it feels like a second home. A special mention to the wonderful nurse - Ms Jyothi is always kind, approachable, and goes above and beyond. She makes sure our baby gets any necessary medication right on schedule, and she always keeps us informed. It gives us so much peace of mind knowing there’s someone so attentive looking after our child’s health. Ms Lucy - Nursery manager responds to our query and never hesitates to check on my son whenever we ask for. It matters a lot to be at peace when you are away from the baby. The entire staff is warm and professional, and the environment is clean, cheerful, and full of engaging activities. We’ve already noticed how much our baby is developing, both socially and physically. We couldn’t ask for a better place. Highly recommended!
