Hummingbird's first Abu Dhabi nursery, between Amaya Towers on Al Reem Island
Hummingbird Early Learning Centre has run nurseries in the UAE for around 18 years, with branches in DIFC and Dubai Airport Freezone (DAFZ) in Dubai and on Al Reem Island in Abu Dhabi. It follows the UK EYFS, enriched with a Reggio Emilia-inspired approach, and groups children into Baby Care (0–1), Toddlers (1–2), Early Learning (2–3) and School Preparation/Foundation Stage. Monthly topics guide learning through play, with extra-curricular music and movement, football, tennis and cooking. The group emphasises parent partnership through regular communication, participation events and gentle induction and transitions. Hummingbird describes an inclusive approach for children of determination: educators observe each child closely, adapt activities with multiple entry points, and train continuously in inclusive practice.

Adam has been attending Hummingbird Nursery on Reem Island since he was 2 years old… The teachers and staff are incredibly caring, warm and attentive… It's been wonderful watching Adam grow in confidence and independence.
Friendly staff and warm atmosphere, love to see children laughing there and coming happy!
Hummingbird has been the second home to my two boys since 2022… the teachers truly love their kids and are genuinely dedicated… excellent communication with parents.
Both of my kids have attended Hummingbird Nursery… When they started, neither of them spoke any English, but now they communicate comfortably.
