Yes, it can also be difficult to get places at nurseries (though I believe that early primary school years are the hardest places to find at the moment)

Yes, some nurseries are very expensive, some are more reasonable

I know of a few nurseries that offer 3 days min, but Im sure that some may do 2 days.
Where will you be living?

These prices are APPROX...

I believe Jebel Ali Nursery at Polo Club (AR) is approx 5,000 dhs a term for 2 mornings, and 8,000 for 5 days (8am-12)

Kids Island in Umm Sequeim 6,900 a term (5 days), or 4,900 a term ( 2 days)

Super Kids- Mirdiff - 6,000 a term (full time)

Childrens Oasis 5,000 dhs PER MONTH ( for 5 days, 8 - 5pm)

Hope this helps a little
