Where little ones play, ask and grow in two languages

  • Arabic & English every day
  • A big garden

What makes Fanoos feel like home

Days full of play and laughter, and details that put your mind at rest.

Two languages, naturally

Each class has an Arabic-speaking and an English-speaking teacher, so children hear both all day long.

Small groups

No more than eight toddlers or twelve pre-KG children in a class, with two teachers in each.

A garden to run in

A sand pit, water play, a vegetable patch and shaded swings for every season.

Meals cooked here

Breakfast, lunch and snacks cooked fresh in our kitchen, with the weekly menu sent home in advance.

A nurse on site

A qualified nurse is in the building every day, from drop-off to pick-up.

Photos through the day

Parents get photos, meals and nap times through our app, every day.

We confirm your visit on WhatsApp — and your little one is very welcome to come along.

Parents ask

What ages do you take?

We welcome children from six months to four years in the nursery, and from four to eight years in the Lantern Club after school and on Saturdays.

Does my child need to speak English already?

No. Children pick up both languages through songs, play and routine, and teachers always comfort and explain in the language a child knows best.

What are your hours?

The nursery is open Sunday to Thursday, 7:30 am to 4 pm, with late pick-up until 5 pm. The Lantern Club runs until 5 pm on weekdays and from 10 am to 2 pm on Saturdays.

Are meals included?

Yes — breakfast, lunch and two snacks are included in the monthly fee. We cook nut-free and adapt meals for allergies and family preferences.

How do you keep children safe?

Everyone signs in through a single gate, children are handed over only to adults on your list, and a nurse is on site all day. Rooms and the garden are checked every morning before children arrive.

Come and see the garden for yourselves

Bring your little one for a free trial morning — the best way to know if Fanoos feels right.
