Dear Parents,

Welcome to Creative Nest nursery, a purpose-built Early Years Foundation Stage Reggio Emilia inspired nursery committed to providing the best in early years education. We strive to be a home away from home for our students. A source of comfort, support and insight as they take their first brave steps toward a life-long journey of learning and self-fulfillment.

Children are unique beings, and their thirst to learn starts from a very early age. Every ball they kick, every step they conquer and every fist of earth they try to eat sparks a magical chain reaction within: one of physiological, neurological and emotional significance. Children, and adults for that matter, learn best by “doing”, by exploring and by touching the world around them. Understanding the way in which children acquire and process knowledge remains the key driver behind Creative Nest Nursery.

Our programme continually pushes the boundaries of classroom-based learning, turning every corner of our facility into a source of intrigue and wonder. We encourage our children to take in their environment, to be absorbed in even the smallest of details. Whether it’s the sensation of the muddy earth between their fingers as they plant their first tomato seeds, or the gooey, cold feeling of kneading dough in our Little Chef’s kitchen, everything they do can be a magical experience.

With the Early Years Foundation Stage Guiding Principles, the Reggio Emilia Approach as our source of inspiration and the basis to our enriched English and Arabic “Little Wings” programme, our growing team of enthusiastic and highly qualified teachers and assistants strive to create the best learning experience for our children. Because only with the right foundations can our children truly reach their full potential.

Welcome to Creative Nest NurseryA Passionate and

Highly Qualified TeamAs an Early Years Foundation Stage Reggio Emilia inspired nursery, we have access to the latest in early years teacher training and research, which means our teaching staff always remain at the fore of the field. Our nursery is home to more than 40 enthusiastic teaching staff from 10 countries.

Highly-qualified in all aspects of early years education and first-aid trained, our teachers combine skill with a contagious love for learning. We allow our teachers the flexibility to approach learning through a variety of innovative ways, depending on the children’s areas of interest and development. This means no two classrooms are ever quite the same… just the way it should be.

In the heart of Mizhar, just 10 minutes from Uptown Mirdif and 15 minutes from Festival City, Creative Nest Nursery is within easy reach from a number of Dubai locations. We also offer a transportation service at an affordable fee for parents who need an extra hand with the school run.

Convenient Location

We strive to ensure our fees are competitively priced and offer great value for our families. Our prices start from AED 7,000 per term for 2 days per week, to AED 10,950 per term for 5 days a week. We also have early bird, afternoon and evening clubs that cover much of the working day.

”The goal of early childhood education should be to activate the child’s own desire to learn.”Maria Montessori

Learning Through LifeAs educators, we are passionate about teaching and nurturing a life-long love of learning in our children, and understand intrinsically that children learn best when they “do”. So, we have enriched the Early Years Foundation Stage Curriculum with our very own English and Arabic “Little Wings” programme. This draws on the Reggio Emilia approach, teaching children life skills and a love for the environment and community around them.

”I had already enrolled my son in another nursery but from a chance encounter with Creative Nest during the first few weeks of opening my instinct told me there was something really very special about it. I took the chance and chose CNN for my child. I couldn’t be more happier. I was in search for a holistic environment where love, laughter, natural light and happiness were central to the nursery’s ethos and practices. Creative Nest offers this in a genuine way. Light floods through the nursery and their focus on a non toxic environment needs applauding. They do this with total integrity and always welcome parents engagement. Children are exposed to sophisticated learning facilities from playing in an organic garden to having fun in an amazing gym while always showered with love, laughter and respect. We couldn’t be more grateful that Creative Nest opened and is a viable option for two of my children. Well done to the nursery.”Zaki’s Mother

What our Parents Have to Say

”Honestly, Creative Nest Nursery is one of the best nurseries in this area, if not the best! Thank you so much for making Shaikha’s time with you not only educational but enjoyable, she loves going to the nursery and I have noticed a difference in her behavior and the way she interacts with other children! Thank you for creating the perfect environment for our little ones, starting with staff to the simplest interior details. I would love to thank you for teaching them Arabic and Quran, I can see that she really developed in Arabic”Shaikha’s Mother

”Outstanding place, pretty much the only educational establishment in UAE where I feel I receive value for money. Muhammad enjoying his time, staff excellent, after school activities are good.”Muhammad’s Father

Instilling the Best Values Perhaps the most important thing children stand to gain from early years education is good character and sound moral values. One of our foremost objectives is to raise empathetic, cultured and compassionate children, and we work closely with our families and the wider community to facilitate this. From promoting and rewarding good etiquette and behavior within the classroom to involving our children and their families in our Corporate Social Responsibility initiatives, children are encouraged to see, understand, respect and actively engage with the world around them.

As a community focused nursery, we also feel it is important to support Muslim families in the spiritual upbringing of their children. We do this by offering optional Islamic and Quranic instruction as part of their daily learning.

Collaboration and teamwork form an essential part of all our Corporate Social Responsibility initiatives. Our past contributions include visiting children with cancer at Dubai Hospital, the Ramadan Fridge, hygiene gift boxes for female labourers, and a charity car wash.

Purpose-built FacilitiesSpread over 5,000 square meters, our state-of-the-art facilities allow us to bring our special learning programme to life. Some of the activities our children love to roll up their sleeves and get into include:

• Making a splash in our amazing Aqua Park• Learning to cook in our toddler-sized Mini

Chefs’ Kitchen, equipped with real cooking equipment

• Growing organic vegetables on our onsite Green Fingers’ Vegetable Patch

• Role-playing and exploring their creative side at our Imagination Station

• Jumping, running and climbing in our exciting Kids’ Gymboree

• Delving into the world of stories in our library, stacked with a variety of English and Arabic literature

And for our slightly younger learners, there’s plenty to encourage their growing sense of freedom and independence. From developing positive sleeping habits in our Sleeping Nest, equipped with the award-winning Dream CoracleTM bed for babies, to stimulating all of the senses in our dedicated Sensory Room, there’s plenty for the littlest learners to explore and gain from our programme.
