Emirates British Nursery is one of the top nursery chains in Dubai that caters to the educational and developmental needs of children aged 3 months to 4 years. A single nursery in Mirdif in 2000 now has four campuses across Dubai. Based on the British Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), all campuses of Emirates British Nursery, including The Villa campus, have an outstanding range of facilities to support academic and non-academic activities fully. EBN's academic calendar starts in September and ends in June.
