    We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Redwood COE. From the moment we joined, we felt welcomed, supported, and truly part of a caring community. The facilities are outstanding, offering children an enriching and inspiring environment. The beautiful botanical garden, splash pad, music room, atelier, gym, and many other thoughtfully designed spaces create wonderful opportunities for learning, creativity, and fun every day! What truly sets Redwood COE apart, however, is its exceptional staff. Every member of the team is highly qualified, professional, kind, and genuinely dedicated to the well-being of the children. They go above and beyond to help children settle in quickly, feel comfortable, and thrive. Their warmth, responsiveness, and commitment make families feel valued and supported at all times. Especially, Miss Raisa has created a very nourishing and educating environment for our son helping him flourish and gain knowledge and confidence!! During the particularly challenging period of the disruption, Redwood COE provided incredible support, flexibility, and alternative learning options. Their care, understanding, and proactive approach gave us a strong sense of security and reassurance when we needed it most. We are deeply grateful for everything they have done for our child and our family. Redwood COE is much more than a nursery or educational center—it is a community that truly cares. We highly recommend it to any family looking for an exceptional, nurturing, and inspiring environment for their children.

    Our kids were enrolled in Redwood center of excellence since the opening few years ago and we couldn’t be more lucky with a nursery/school. The staff, the amazing facilities with the indoor garden and the outdoor playground, splash pad. We wish more school were as nice as redwood. But above everything we are grateful for the kindness, the flexibility and the geniune love towards the kids Special thank you to the amazing teachers Miss Jo Ann, Miss Ethel, Miss Madona, Miss Gretchen, Miss Kida, Miss Abby. And the amazing staff from the reception to Miss Kelly, Miss Tonia from the library, Miss Dalia, the art teacher, the Islamic teacher, music and coaches and the managing team. Nour and Lana will never forget their first school.

    As a new and working mom, I was careful about choosing the right nursery for my 6-month-old boy. I did my research, visited many nurseries in Dubai, and kept an eye out for a place that would feel like a true partnership in my child’s care. From day one, during my site visit with Mrs. Pearl and Ms. Jessa at Redwood Al Barsha, I knew it was the right fit. As my little one began attending, I noticed a wonderful transformation. He seemed happier, and he was learning new skills every day. Mrs. Sara, his teacher, listened to all my concerns and followed a clear routine for him—his feedings, naps, and daily activities. Watching him crawl and explore more each day filled me with reassurance,really a Big thanks to Mrs.Sara🩵. I felt less guilt about returning to work because there is such supportive communication and attentive care. The management team genuinely listens to parents, and everyone I’ve met has been incredibly helpful. A special shout-out to Mrs. Nourhan in the accounts department for her outstanding support and reliability. Now that he’s nine months old, I’m confident that we made the right choice. I’m excited about the upcoming summer camp, and I’m grateful for the daily updates through the Educor Parent app, which include photos and detailed notes about his mood, meals, drinks, and even diaper changes. It’s comforting to see the little moments that show how much he’s growing. Thank you to the wonderful nannies and the entire Redwood team for the warmth, smiles, and consistent care. We’re very happy 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰with our decision.

    We have had a wonderful experience with Redwood Center of Excellence. All three of our children attended from a very young age, and it has played an important role in their early development. A special thank you to Miss Perl in the nursery, who is truly exceptional. Her care, dedication, and genuine affection for the children make a real difference and give parents complete peace of mind. We would also like to recognize Miss Milena for her fantastic French classes. She makes learning fun, engaging, and effective, helping children build confidence while developing a love for languages. We are very grateful to the entire Redwood team for creating such a nurturing and supportive environment. Highly recommended for any family looking for outstanding early years education in Dubai.

    My son attended nursery in Redwood COE and he absolutely loved it. The activities are very engaging, teachers are very loving and caring - my son always looks forward going to nursery! As a parent I also like that children are exposed to French and Arabic at a young age. The facilities are very age appropriate and maintained well - with big space, children are able to freely enjoy themselves Many thanks to Ms Mylene, Ms Hasmin and Ms Margie for giving him such a good time.
