Our approach
We believe that every sandcastle built, every story shared and every friendship formed, is a step towards confidence, curiosity, social and emotional growth.
Confidence through child-centred learning
We encourage every child to follow their interests, ask questions and discover the world at their own pace.
Curiosity as a compass
We stimulate play-based discovery and hands-on experiences that lay the foundation for a lifelong love of learning.

We help children understand their emotions, to express and navigate them with confidence - building self-awareness and empathy along the way.

What parents say about us

An exceptional nursery with a great reputation. The support and care my child receives at Jebel Ali Village Nursery makes me extremely pleased. The teachers and staff and management are very diligent, nurturing and professional. This year my daughter is turning 4 years old; she has been in Motor City branch since she was 6 months old. Overall, I am very happy with her development and thankful for the assistance and encouragement they are giving to my child. Highly recommended!

My son has now graduated from FS1 at the Polo club branch after 2 years of attending this amazing nursery, and how I wish it had FS2 for him to keep going there. We have loved everything about it, from the easy access in the morning and saying Hi to all the horses, to its beautiful intimate, outdoor and nurturing environment. The class sizes are perfect, and the staff is just so attentive, caring and really love what they do. They really helped my little one grow with confidence and learn through play. Well done Ms Sue and team, we will miss you.

THE BEST NURSERY IN DUBAI! My daughter loves coming here (Al Furjan), it’s really like a home from home and the staff are so lovely! Mrs. Nada at the front is a wonderful lady and I am so happy that I chose this nursery for my first child. 5 stars!

What makes you stand out is your kind flexibility, which I can only imagine is difficult to cope with sometimes but makes a huge difference. Not only for the convenience of the parents, but makes your nursery very elastic and open minded rather than a dry institution ran by strict rules!

Both Miss Petra and Miss Sunshine have greatly contributed to her development starting from understanding seasons, colours, shapes, numbers etc, but also dealing with emotions, understanding others and critically potty training. We look forward to enrolling both our daughters in the upcoming term and continue to enjoy their journey at Jebel Ali Nursery, in preparation for the big school.

My daughter began her nursery journey with a very anxious mother! From the moment we stepped inside Jebel Ali Village Nursery in JBR I felt completely at ease. I knew my girl would be in good hands.

An extraordinary, magical place, where the commitment that every single person puts in can be seen in the results, seeing the children happy and above all learning so much is wonderful. All the parents I meet every morning are always smiling, in two years we have had the pleasure of meeting 6 teachers and all 6 are fantastic professionals and really kind people. Nothing to say, even though it is very inconvenient for me and very far from my daily commitments, we will always bring our children here with them.

I would just like to take this opportunity to tell you what a wonderful nursery jebel Ali village nursery is, they are so warm and welcoming everyone from the admin staff to the teachers, they not only create and warm and safe environment for your most precious but also but create such an environment that it’s impossible for your most precious little ones not to thrive.

Dear Michelle and all staff of JAVN, Thanks to you, we had an amazing 1st year in Dubai. I remember the first couple of days when Isabella didn’t want to go to the Nursery (as it was her 1st time to go to a nursery or away from Mama). And after these couple of days she told me she wants to go to the Nursery every day also on the weekends. This is all because of you guys and the amazing job you all do. BIG THANK YOU to all of you!

My son was in JAVN in Motorcity for 2 years and he absolutely loved it! I was very happy with the school and all the staff were extremely friendly! Everything was well organised, the teachers class set ups and learning activities were great! Definitely going to miss this school as my son moved to a higher grade.

We LOVE this place. the only nursery my kid didn’t feel anxious during nursery tours. The staff is warm and welcoming, the receptionist is super friendly with kids. We love the cozy setting and the nature based play learning, and most importantly the horses that my kids pet before the class starts.
