The Doha Mums Nursery Guide is the result of more than 100 hours of research, visits, interviews, compilation and editing. Much more than a simple list of nurseries and their contact details, the Doha Nursery Guide allows you to become truly acquainted with the nurseries - which is especially valuable for the expat mum who is not yet here in Doha or who is embarking upon their first-time search for The Perfect Nursery for her baby or toddler.
We suggest that you begin with our Quick List, which highlights many frequently-requested nursery features & offerings. The Quick List is intended as a guide only - each of the nurseries fits into several categories, so be sure to visit the individual nursery pages for a full description of each one. You will find the full list of nurseries, along with brief descriptions, just below the Quick List.
The Doha Nursery Guide is still a work in progress - we're already working with several nurseries who were not able to be part of the inaugural launch - so please check back soon for information on additional nurseries. If there is a particular nursery that you would like to see listed on the guide please let us know, and if you would like for your nursery to be listed then please contact Doha Mums.
