Sunny Meadows follows the Montessori method alongside the UK EYFS framework, giving children in Khalifa City a structured yet child-led introduction to early learning. The Montessori approach encourages children to learn through play and hands-on discovery at their own pace, using classic Montessori materials within mixed-age classrooms that reflect a natural, family-like social setting. The nursery's philosophy centres on recognising each child as an individual with their own gifts and pace of development. Rather than measuring progress through comparison, staff focus on personalised care, helping each child build independence, confidence and a lifelong love of learning. The stated mission is to develop independent thinking, nurture children's natural desire to learn, and build habits of persistence and initiative. All teaching staff and assistants have undertaken professional Montessori training, supporting consistent delivery of the method across the nursery's classrooms.
Age range: 2 months to 4 years
Sunny Meadows organises its provision across the N0 to SN age groups, welcoming children from 2 months to 4 years of age. Classrooms bring together children of mixed ages and nationalities, in keeping with the Montessori tradition, allowing younger children to learn from older peers and older children to develop leadership and nurturing skills. The nursery operates all year round, offering continuity of care for working families in Khalifa City. Classes are conducted in both English and Arabic, supporting children's early language development in a bilingual environment.
Sunny Meadows Montessori Nursery is situated in Khalifa City A, opposite Raha International School, one of the area's longstanding schools. The nursery describes its setting as a home-like environment, designed to feel safe, happy and nurturing for young children away from home for the first time. Classrooms are equipped with traditional Montessori materials, supporting hands-on, self-directed learning within mixed-age groups. The nursery emphasises safety and security as a core part of its everyday operation, alongside a focus on quality educators who guide children through play-based learning.




Sunny Meadows places a strong emphasis on health, safety and individualised care for every child. Families are asked to provide medical and immunisation records on admission, which are updated regularly, monthly for babies aged 4 weeks to 1 year and termly for children aged 2 to 4 years, to help staff maintain accurate, up-to-date health information. The nursery has a clear illness policy asking parents to keep unwell children at home, and arranges periodic clinical check-ups conducted by a GP through its healthcare service provider, with parents notified in advance. Consent processes are in place for administering over-the-counter medication such as paracetamol, and for emergency medical treatment, ensuring staff can act promptly and appropriately if a child becomes unwell or is injured while in their care. Personalised settling-in support is central to the nursery's approach, with staff building an individual profile for each child covering routines, preferences, allergies and any additional needs, so that care can be tailored from the very first day.
