Redwood Nursery follows an authentic Montessori method alongside the UK's EYFS framework, giving children in Mohamed Bin Zayed City a blend of child-led exploration and structured early-years learning outcomes. Classrooms are furnished with natural materials and open-ended resources that encourage children to choose their own activities, work at their own pace and develop independence from an early age. Rather than direct instruction, teachers act as guides, observing each child's interests and readiness to introduce new concepts in literacy, numeracy, practical life skills and sensorial exploration. This child-led approach is designed to nurture self-motivated learners who develop academic skills alongside social and emotional confidence. As children progress through Redwood's stages of development, from babies through to Foundation age, the curriculum builds gradually towards early reading, writing, counting and problem-solving, laying strong foundations for the transition into primary school.
Age range: 3 months to 4 years (N0 to SN)
Redwood Nursery in Mohamed Bin Zayed City accepts children from a few months old through to Foundation age, with classes organised by stage of development. Babies aged around 3 to 12 months are cared for in a calm, sensory-rich environment that supports early motor and language development, while toddlers aged 1 to 2 years explore a safe, scaled-down setting designed to build confidence and independence. Preschool-aged children between 2 and 3 years begin their first steps into early literacy and numeracy through concrete, hands-on materials, while children in the Foundation stage, aged 3 to 4 years, focus on reading, writing, emotional intelligence and school-readiness skills as they prepare for the next stage of their education.
The Redwood Nursery in Mohamed Bin Zayed City is designed as an authentic Montessori environment, furnished with natural materials that encourage creative, hands-on play and learning. Classrooms are set up so that everything is within a child's reach and scale, supporting safe, independent exploration from the earliest age groups upwards. Across the Redwood network, outdoor play areas, sensory gardens and dedicated activity spaces are used to give children daily opportunities for physical play, gardening and imaginative exploration alongside indoor Montessori-based learning corners. The setting is intended to feel welcoming to both children and parents, with daily photo and progress updates sent directly to families so they can stay closely connected to their child's day-to-day experiences at nursery.













Redwood places a strong emphasis on nutrition and daily wellbeing, with specially designed meal plans that encourage children to eat together, try new foods and develop healthy eating habits from an early age. Food is treated as part of the wider learning experience, with curiosity about nutrition encouraged alongside academic exploration. Parents receive daily updates including photos and reports on their child's activities and development, helping to build trust and a strong partnership between families and nursery staff. Redwood also encourages parents to become involved in nursery life, sharing observations and reviewing their child's portfolio as part of the settling-in and ongoing learning process. An afterschool care option is available for families who need care until 6pm, allowing children to continue benefiting from a stimulating environment throughout the working day.
