Parents Say

This preschool is absolutely wonderful. All the teachers are cheerful. Everything is well thought off. My daughter has never been happier, so much effort put into small details.

Exceptional nursery and in my opinion, pioneers in child care. This comes from a mother who visited over 30 nurseries around Qatar and could not find anything closely matching the level of care at Young Explorers. My son has been at the pearl nursery for a year and cried every single day. From day 1 at Young Explorers was a joy for him and for me. I can work assured that my child is in good hands with professional staff that genuinely care. The kids spend a lot of time outside learning through nature and through play. The kids curiosity is cultivated. No handouts, no siting for long periods and no unhappy children. Ms Patricia is amazing, she potty trained my son!! I still cannot believe it myself. I debated writing the review because I like the small classes but with such high quality care, the owners, managers and teachers must be recognized for their excellence.

We are so pleased about choosing this nursery for our son. I met Deborah first and then Susie who spent a lot of time explaining and answering questions that I had, on my unannounced visit on a Thursday afternoon after hours. They were so welcoming, professional and their clear vision was exactly what I wanted to hear regarding learning for the children in their care. My husband popped in to see what he thought, without me as I was sold on our son attending, he called me to tell me he had registered our son as he was that impressed. Our son has now attended for a month and absolutely loves it, he is confident and comfortable with all the staff that work there. It is clear that all the whole team make such an effort with all the children. Caélan's class teacher is so informative and her manner with him is excellent, she takes time every day to discuss the day and how he has been. All the staff make an effort to welcome and inform me of things that are going on, they really have made the

My daughter goes there and she loves it! The teachers and staff are extremely friendly and great with the kids. Debra and Susie were extremely welcoming on the day we went to check it out and were very supportive on my daughter's first day which helped me a great deal. My daughter's teacher, Miss Grace, makes it a point to personally update me on how my daughter did everyday which I totally appreciate. Susie also sent updates and pictures of my daughter the first couple of days she was there to let me know how she was doing. I'm generally a stressy mum but feel totally at ease leaving my daughter there. My daughter was very attached to me before we started her at nursery but she's taken really well to all the teachers. I like the fact that the classes are small, I think my daughter would have been overwhelmed if there were too many children. I also think that since the classes are smaller the nursery is very cosy and personal. I am very happy with our choice and I visited most of the o

A Nursery where the kids really do come first! A welcoming place with happy, enthusiastic, experienced staff. What more could you ask for. My Son loves it!!!

I searched all the nurseries in my local area for my very attached nearly 3year old (otherwise known as my shadow) and am so very happy we found and chose Young Explorers. From the minute entering the nursery, it is obvious the aesthics and natural light are so conducive to early childhood learning. There is a Reggio Emilia like piazza common area which evolves into new areas to explore and discover, as to enrich the children's interests. Young children can not resist the amazing environment. In my own experience, during the separation process, my child said a tearful "bye Mama" whilst holding a gigantic play magnet collecting gold coins for treasure, or "come back soon" as he searched the sandpit with the digger for bugs, or even just a wave as he slid into the dark area with a torch, thus making it fantastic for all of us. Susan is a knowledgeable and empathic manager and Ms Debra, the dedicated head teacher treats the children so wonderfully and respectfully that my child will remem

I had 2 kids in YE nursery for 2 years and we are really sad to leave. YE has been a place where my kids have been able to develop and grow on so many levels. A place where they were safe, where they could explore, where they could get messy and be creative and learn at the same time. The whole team is amazing, from management to TA's. In my opinion, it's the best nursery in Doha.

Spent the most amazing 18months at YE- our only regret is that we didn’t enroll our son earlier. From the moment we met Susie to come to view the school we felt we were home. Our little one ended up playing for a good couple hours on that ‘visit’ day- a good sign to us that he was comfortable. The teaching and experiences given by far surpassed our wildest expectations. So grateful for the love, support, and encouragement given by all the staff

We made our decision for Young Explorer Nursery after visiting 16 different places near to my house. Especially if it is your first child, the criteria list is long and you want to make sure you find the best of the best. Actually the real answer is in the faces of the children in that nursery, not in the playground quality or if they have a soft play area or not. The attitude of the team, the spacious bright area, the friendly atmosphere made us think that is a good place. The children do not eat, sleep and play in the same area, they are on a rotation and spends their time in different venues throughout the day. The nursery is clean, simply decorated and it is not over crowded. Susan the Manager and our teacher Miss Grace supported us on the settling period, gave us feedback, listened our never ending concerns, sent us photos, ensured us that our daughter is fine and enjoying. They are always approachable, I felt really ashamed of asking everyday how is my daughter doing but they rea

This is a wonderful nursery full of dedicated and loving staff. They have an open and welcoming environment that’s perfect for learning through play. Our daughter joined in September 2017. Ms Ivana, her class teacher is absolutely exceptional. Her love and true care for all the children in her class makes each one of them shine. She is always eager to share with us our child’s developments and help support us when our child is facing certain challenges. I can really feel her love for our daughter and her classmates. This quality in a teacher is truly priceless as it helps the children thrive. The teaching assistants Ms Joela and Ms Hannah also make the learning so joyful that our daughter runs into their arms every morning. I’m also grateful that the nursery is managed by a very experienced head teacher Ms Deborah and Ms Susan who practice an open door policy and help parents navigate the initial period of adjustment as well as any other issues relating to our child’s development.
