Hi everyone, Love this forum so far.It has been very useful going through all the threads. Would someone be able to tell me the minimum age a child has to be to enter a nursery in AUH. My lil one is 22 months and will be 2 yrs old when we move ( hopefully later this year). Does the part time concept exist there , as in 3 days a week or 2 days a week? Also , is it illegal to wash one's car outside their home? I heard you could get fined if your car is dusty and one isnt allowed to wash ones car outside their home. My car here in the Uk gets washed twice a year..so er.. I am a tad worried. :)). some nurseries will take babies, most take when walking, each will have different criteria, you would need to check, but 2 years old is old enough. part time yes the younger ages will be upto 3 days a week, but once they are getting up to the age 3 or so then its 5 days. yes its illegal to wash outside your apartment/house if on the road, if its a private compound etc then you are fine, a lot of water is wasted here with people washing cars, so the do fine people for that, also yes they do fine you if your car is dirty, and its gets much dirter here because the cars get covered in sand etc, of course in the uk if you are driving over a farm track and it gets muddy then its the equivalent of here the sand. you just either do it yourself if you are on visible to the road and dont waste water, or you go to the car wash, its not that expensive and you get a very very good wash outside and they clean inside too.
