A message from our founder
As the Founder and Principal of Little Oxford Nursery and Day Care, I wish to extend a warm welcome to all our families.
Little Oxford Nursery and Day Care was started in 2007 as a result of a need for an English language nursery in the RAK community. It has continued to grow into a dynamic and vibrant preschool entity with a focus on strong communication and partnerships with all community members. Throughout the years we have continued to grow in numbers and expand in property.
As parents, you are making a valuable investment in your child's life by enrolling him/her in preschool. Little Oxford Nursery and Day Care will help double your investment by not only inculcating in your child the love of learning but also by instilling in him/her the sense of being a responsible and a productive member of the society.
Thank you for allowing us to be an integral part of your child's growth and development.
Wishes & regards,
Zia Ara
