Help! What do you do for afterschool in Dubai?
Hi Ladies,
I need advice. I am a full time working mom and my son (who is currently 3 1/2) is in nursery school full time in Deira. The problem is, most nurseries in Dubai only take kids until 4 years old, so come September 2012, I don't know what to do!!
I am holding a place for him right now in KG1 at American International School, but the KG program ends at 12:30 pm and he can hang out at school only until 2:00 PM. I finish work at 5:00 PM, so I need to find a solution from 2:00 until about 5:30/6 pm!
A nanny is not an option for me, because a) its way too costly to sponsor a nanny full time and plus we don't know how long we will even be living in Dubai and b) people keep scaring me about getting a part-time nanny at home because its not legal and c) even if I could find a part time nanny, they don't have cars so I still have the problem of getting my son from school to home at 2:00 pm - if I put him on the bus, I add another 6,000 AED !
So please if you have ideas, please please let me know?? Does anyone know any reasonable nursery schools that take kids who are 4 years old through 5 years old? I found a few nurseries in Dubai but the prices are like 30,000 AED - 40,000 AED a year?!?! Man, I miss the USA where school is free!!
Any advice much appreciated!!!
