Little Champions Nursery delivers the British EYFS (Early Years Foundation Stage) curriculum, structured around the Prime Areas of Learning: Communication and Language, Physical Development, and Personal, Social and Emotional Development. As children progress through the age groups, early literacy, numeracy and science exploration are introduced to build a foundation for primary school readiness. Teaching is led by native English-speaking educators who use storytelling, songs, sensory play and themed exploration stations to build vocabulary, listening skills and a love of books. The nursery's own 5-Day Story Box approach supports language development throughout the week. The overall philosophy draws on Hygge principles, creating a calm, joyful and child-centred atmosphere where children are encouraged to explore, move and learn at their own pace. Emphasis is placed on independence, self-help skills and emotional wellbeing alongside academic foundations, supported by a gentle settling-in process for new starters.
Age range: 45 days to 5 years
Little Champions Nursery organises children into four age-appropriate classes spanning 45 days to five years. The Baby Class welcomes babies from 45 days to 12 months with sensory play, tummy time and music and movement. The Toddlers programme, for children aged one to two years, builds on this through hands-on exploration, language development, social skills and creative art and craft activities. The Nursery Class caters to two to three year olds, focusing on early literacy, numeracy basics and science discovery through structured and imaginative play. The Foundation Stage, for three to five year olds, prepares children for primary school with a full British EYFS programme covering phonics and writing, maths mastery and school readiness skills. All programmes operate within full-day, half-day and extended care options, Monday to Friday, giving families flexibility around their schedules.
The nursery occupies a purpose-built villa on Street 81a in Jumeira 1, Dubai, featuring dedicated indoor play rooms with slides, climbing walls and a trampoline for active learning. Outdoor facilities include a sandbox area, a mini traffic circuit for road-safety learning, a playground with safe equipment, and garden space for daily outdoor play. Safety measures include 24/7 CCTV coverage and biometric access control, alongside trained staff supporting children throughout the day. The setting is designed to give parents confidence while children explore, discover and connect with nature in a secure environment. The nursery is open Monday to Friday from 8:00am to 6:00pm, accommodating families who need full-day or extended care in addition to standard nursery hours.





Little Champions Nursery places strong emphasis on emotional wellbeing and a gentle settling-in process, helping children build trusting relationships with staff and peers before easing into daily routines. Independence is encouraged from the Baby Class stage onward, with children supported to feed themselves, manage simple self-care tasks and, in time, work through toilet training. Freshly prepared, balanced meals are provided, catering to dietary requirements and allergies. Combined with 24/7 CCTV and biometric access security, the nursery aims to give parents confidence that their child is safe, well cared for and nourished throughout the day.
A typical day begins with circle time songs and a healthy snack, followed by themed exploration stations and messy play. After outdoor garden time, children enjoy a warm lunch, a rest or nap period, and an afternoon filled with story time, music and free play, all within the nursery's 8:00am to 6:00pm operating hours.
