I’m so grateful to have chosen Step by Step for my son. The teachers, staff, and admin team are truly exceptional — warm, patient, and incredibly dedicated. The way they handle the children shows genuine care, and it’s amazing to see how much my son has grown. He loves going to school every day and is always excited to learn something new.

One of the things I appreciate the most is how actively they keep parents involved. From thoughtful events to engaging activities, they’ve created such a strong and welcoming community for both the students and the parents. It really feels like a family.

Thank you to the entire team for building such a positive, nurturing, and inspiring environment. Highly recommended!

This is our 2nd term at SBS nursey, and I couldn’t be happier with the care and attention my 1.5 year old daughter receives. ☺️
Her teacher, Ms Shimaa, is truly exceptional! She is such a kind and loving person who genuinely cares for my daughter Kenz. My daughter has adapted so well under her care.
My huge thank you to Ms. Shimaa and the entire team for their hard work and dedication.

I cannot recommend step by step nursery enough! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm smiles and a welcoming atmosphere. The staff is incredibly caring and attentive, providing a nurturing environment for the children.

The facilities are clean, safe, and well-organized, with a variety of engaging activities that keep the little ones stimulated and happy. My child has shown so much growth and development since starting here, and I love the regular updates and communication from the teachers.

Additionally, the curriculum is well-rounded, incorporating play-based learning with opportunities for creativity and social interaction. I genuinely feel that my child is in the best hands at SBS!

لقد التحق ابني بحضانة ستيب باي ستيب في مردف منذ الأشهر الثلاثة الماضية. وعلى عكس تجربته مع الحضانة السابقة، فهو يتطلع إلى الذهاب إلى هذه الحضانة كل يوم.
معلمته السيدة سافانا رائعة ومهتمة وتهتم بشدة بتطور ابني وتقوم بتحديثنا بانتظام عن نفس الأمر.
ت. تضمن السيدة حسيتة أن يكون ابني سعيدًا ويتم الاعتناء به جيدًا أثناء تواجده بعيدًا عن المنزل.
لقد كانت السيدة إيمي والسيدة مايا دائمًا دافئة ومريحة للغاية.
نحن سعداء للغاية بقرارنا حيث يمكننا أن نرى تقدمًا ملحوظًا في مهارات التواصل والمهارات الاجتماعية لدى ابني.
شكراً لفريق حضانة خطوة بخطوة مردف!

My second year of employment at a step-by-step nursery will come to a close in a few months. Working here has been an absolute delight. Unlike any other workplace I've ever worked for, our method of instruction and student learning is completely novel. Through internal and external training, the workforce has gotten sufficient assistance and advice. The administration investigates potential areas for employee growth and development and organises training to ensure that our classes are both challenging and engaging. I am grateful for the way you have made this journey meaningful, and I am excited to see what the future holds.

As a nursery teacher, I feel incredibly fortunate to work in such a nurturing and dynamic environment. The emphasis on continuous professional development is outstanding; the training we receive is not only thorough but also practical, allowing us to implement new strategies directly in the classroom. It's truly rewarding to see our little ones thrive in such a positive space, and I am proud to be part of a team that prioritizes their growth and well-being.

Working at Step by step nursery as a teacher has been a truly rewarding experience. The warm and positive atmosphere was what initially drew me to this place, and it has only exceeded my expectations. The management is incredibly supportive and genuinely invested in our professional growth. They provide regular training sessions—almost weekly—so we are well-prepared and confident when we step into the classroom with our students. This continuous learning helps us apply new techniques and approaches, enhancing our teaching effectiveness. I can’t imagine myself working anywhere else; this nursery feels like my second home.
