What Tappy Toes parents say
When she started, we were afraid that she wouldn’t want to go since we weren’t there. But we were wrong. Every day, she wakes up early and eagerly pushes us to get her ready for school… We see her improvement every day.
Shara5-star Google reviewThe love, care, and support she received there helped her blossom into a confident, joyful child. She made wonderful friends, built strong bonds, and always felt safe and happy… It’s not just a nursery. It’s a home away from home.
Divya5-star Google reviewI have always felt very comfortable leaving her in their hands while I had to work. The staff is amazing. You can tell that they truly care about all of the children in their care… Tappy Toes has been a blessing to our family.

Answers for busy parents
At our Al Karama nursery we care for children aged 1 to 6 years, in classes grouped by age.
The British Curriculum with the EYFS framework, with elements of Montessori and Reggio Emilia woven in. Most nurseries follow one approach. We take the best of three.
One educator for every 5 toddlers (1 to 2 years) and every 8 children aged 2 to 3. In FS1 (3 to 4 years) and FS2 (4 to 5 years) we still keep one educator for every 8 children, even though regulations allow up to 1:12 and 1:15.
Yes, every day, through the Illumine app. Every child who is present gets their own updates, and on days your child is absent you still receive the class updates. No child is missed out.
