  We are incredibly grateful for the exceptional care and support we received from Odyssey Nursery Saadiyat during a very challenging time. What truly set them apart was their commitment to maintaining high-quality early years education, even when normal routines were disrupted. The nursery went above and beyond by arranging for Ms Kasuni to come to our home and continue educating our children in a familiar and supportive environment. This level of dedication made an enormous difference to both our children’s learning and their sense of stability. Ms Kasuni was outstanding throughout—professional, caring, and highly engaging. She created a structured yet enjoyable learning experience, ensuring that the children remained motivated and continued to make excellent progress. Just as importantly, she brought warmth and reassurance during an uncertain time, helping the children feel safe and supported. Thanks to her efforts and the nursery’s commitment, our children not only stayed on track academically but also continued to develop confidence, independence, and a love of learning. We couldn’t recommend Odyssey Nursery Saadiyat highly enough for their exceptional standards, flexibility, and genuine care for families

  My daughter absolutely loves going to Odyssey Nursery Saadiyat every day and is always excited to see her teachers, Miss Ada and Miss Aya. That enthusiasm alone says so much about the warm and nurturing environment the nursery has created. When I pick her up, I can clearly see how happy she is and there is always a glow on her face. Miss Ada, in particular, is incredibly kind and loving, and I can see that reflected in my daughter’s behavior and attitude as well. It is reassuring as a parent to know she is surrounded by such positive influences! The most important thing for me is that my daughter is genuinely happy to go to nursery each day. It truly feels like a safe and caring community. I am very grateful for the wonderful work the teachers and staff do 🥰

  We absolutely love Odyssey and are so grateful to be part of this wonderful community. Since joining, our daughter has truly thrived in every way. The teachers and faculty are incredibly warm, welcoming, and friendly, and it's clear how much they genuinely care about each child. The learning environment is engaging, nurturing, and thoughtfully designed to encourage curiosity and independence. We especially appreciate the hands-on learning experiences and the way the Reggio Emilia-inspired curriculum is brought to life through meaningful, child-led exploration and creativity. Communication with teachers has been excellent. We always feel informed, supported, and connected to our daughter's learning journey. The staff are approachable, responsive, and work closely with families to ensure every child feels valued and successful. Odyssey has provided such a positive foundation for our daughter, and we couldn't be happier with our experience. We highly recommend it to any family looking for a caring, enriching, and inspiring early childhood education environment.

  I would like to express my sincere appreciation to Odyssey Nursery for their continuous care and attention towards the children, especially during the recent period. It was very clear how committed they were to checking on the children and following up with them regularly. My daughter attended several online sessions, and it was a truly lovely experience for her. She was excited and happy in every session, which clearly reflects the effort made to make learning enjoyable and engaging for children.

  We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Odyssey Saadiyat. Our son Ilan absolutely loves going every day, he’s grown so much in confidence, curiosity, and joy since starting here. A huge thank you to Ms. Ada for her incredible patience, warmth, and creativity. She truly knows how to bring out the best in each child! Ms Aya (TA) is such a joy to be around too. And a huge thank you for Ms Emily as well for creating such a nurturing, organized, and welcoming environment for both children and parents. It’s such a wonderful feeling to know Ilan is surrounded by people who make him feel safe, happy, and inspired. We’re so grateful for everything you do!
