Nature-focused EYFS nursery in Khalifa City A blending Montessori and Reggio ideas
Treehouse Nursery is a villa nursery on Al Jawdah Street in Khalifa City A, Abu Dhabi, for children aged one to four. Its curriculum is built on the British EYFS principles and blends play-based learning with elements of Montessori and Reggio Emilia, letting children lead their own development. Nature and sustainability run through the programme: children garden in a herb garden, grow seedlings for an aquaponics tower, go on nature hunts and do Reggio-style projects with natural materials. Stories are shared daily in English and Arabic, and Arabic is woven into play. Facilities include a shaded sand play area with a playhouse and spring riders, sensory play set-ups, and an indoor gym with a climbing wall. Music, movement, yoga and Arabic enrichment rotate by term. Parents can tour on weekdays between 8am and 2pm.
Packed Lunch
Two meal times (morning snack and lunch); parents provide a healthy packed lunch. Water is the only drink encouraged (except baby bottles).

Our experience with Treehouse Nursery has been nothing short of exceptional. Over the past year, we have watched our child grow in confidence, independence, social skills, and curiosity.
We have been part of Treehouse Nursery since 2023... The outside play area has plenty of shade and activities, and our little one had gym, Arabic and music classes every week.
All three of my children have attended Treehouse over the years, and I have never once regretted my decision. For me, Treehouse is simply the best nursery in Abu Dhabi.
As both an educator and a mother, I searched through many nurseries before choosing Treehouse Nursery - 17, to be exact... choosing this nursery was one of the best decisions we made.
