Hello everyone,
   I'm new to this forum. I have a 2 year and 9 month old daughter and need to know of good places where I can leave her while I go to my job in the morning.

Would preschools accept her at this age? She turns 3 on October 15th.
Please let me know of any daycare centers or preschools that I could contact for more information. Thank you!

Armand

Hello
I got two schools but they are not exactly near rashid mall, but they are not far from there.

one is back side of saad specialist hospital and other is near tamimi super market, akrabia, 16 number road.
The one near to saad hospital is run by arab ladies and the other other is run by Pakistani and Indian ladies.
However, for day care they have Filipino attendants. 

Let me know if you want the addresses.

dr.sarosh

Hi, I also live near Saudi hollandi bank. I've tried many daycares but usually the good sitters leave or the place doesn't feed or clean the child properly. I have a room with play mats and MANY toys for my 16 mo girl but I wanted her to interact with other kids as well.if u haven't found a good daycare yet, we could,hire a nanny together and split the cost. If u have found a good place, do let me know too!!
