A home away from home since 2006

Butterflies Nursery opened in Umm Al Quwain in 2006. Since then, families from across the emirate and many nationalities have trusted us with their little ones.

What we believe

Children learn best when they feel safe, loved and free to play. Everything we do starts there.

We give every child individual care in small classes, with caring teachers trained to work with young children. Learning happens through play, following the British EYFS, with English and Arabic every day.

Our children come from many backgrounds, and they learn about each other’s cultures while celebrating the traditions of the UAE together.
