Why Choose This Nursery
Overview
Cambridgeshire Nursery is a British curriculum nursery in Mankhool, Dubai, welcoming children from around one year old through to four years of age.

Staff work to understand the world from a child's perspective, capturing individual interests and using them to support confidence, self-esteem and a natural love of learning. Parents are encouraged to be part of this journey, sharing in their child's play and learning experiences as the nursery builds positive relationships with each family.

Curriculum & Approach
Cambridgeshire Nursery follows the British Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) curriculum, which is delivered across the nursery's programmes for children from one to four years old. The approach is inspired by Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences, encouraging staff to observe each child, discover their interests, assess their strengths and enhance their individual play and learning experiences. Children are supported across the seven areas of learning and development set out within the EYFS framework, in environments designed to encourage natural curiosity and active, playful engagement. Rather than a one-size-fits-all method, the nursery aims to recognise each child as an individual, respecting differing cultures, belief systems and values as part of everyday practice. This child-centred, play-based approach is intended to help children build the confidence to ask questions, challenge ideas and develop their own thinking, preparing them for the transition into formal schooling.
Ages & Programs
Age range: 1 year onwards to 4 years
Cambridgeshire Nursery structures its offering around clear age-based programmes. First Steps welcomes children from one year onwards, providing an introduction to nursery life in a nurturing setting. The Nursery programme caters for toddlers aged two to three years, with unit teams supporting children as they build confidence, take safe risks and learn through play, guided by a dedicated key worker who communicates daily with parents. The Foundation Stage programme is designed for children aged three to four years, building on earlier learning as children prepare for the move into formal schooling. Alongside these core age groups, the nursery also runs Holiday Camps and offers a Day Care service for families requiring extended hours of care.

Care & Wellbeing
Care at Cambridgeshire Nursery is built around consistent relationships between children, families and staff. Each child is assigned a key worker who communicates with parents on a daily basis, observing and enhancing the child's play and learning experiences while keeping families informed of everyday achievements and milestones. Staff place particular emphasis on comfort and reassurance for younger children, understanding that toddlers can be possessive and sensitive as they develop their sense of self. Guidance, patience and encouragement are used to help children take safe risks, build self-belief and settle confidently into nursery life.
