Setup a childcare business in Dubai

The childcare centre is a necessity around the world. With both mother and father at work in so many cases, child nurseries, childcare centres and nannies are stepping in to provide part-time or full-time services. As the UAE continues its drive to inspire more women into the workforce, the demand for daycare entry is making it easier to start a childcare business for people wishing to support working families. Daycare is a highly structured industry and requires the approvals of authorities on many levels. However, with the guidance and support of a business formation expert, starting your business can be quick, straightforward, and economical. How to start a child care business in Dubai in 5 steps Before launching a child care centre in Dubai, one of the most important factors to consider is that it includes a great responsibility for someone else's child. You will be accountable for your child's care, safety, meals, learning, and entertainment. All this requires a lot of time, dedication, patience, proactive measures and resources to succeed in the business. Here are some points to consider before setting up the child care centre in Dubai. They are: • Before setting up a business, determine if it will be a home-based child care facility or at a separate designated location • The age range of children • Proactive safety and security measures • Qualified and certified staff to take care of the children

Documents required to start a daycare centre in Dubai

Once you have considered all the points, you will need to get started with the licensing process. The following is a list of documents required to set up a childcare centre in Dubai:

• Thorough information about the entrepreneur and their educational degree certificate
• Copy of the entrepreneur's passport and Emirati partner's passport.
• A police clearance certificate of the partners
• The centre's location and design layout
• Approval from the municipality, KHDA and the Civil Defense and Public Health confirming that all safety measures are in place.

The Steps

1. Make a business plan:

Drafting a business plan is the first step in launching childcare business in Dubai. Your business plan must include a brief narrative of your business. Include a synopsis, business overview, and market research. It should also have a financial analysis with projections.

2. Choose a suitable location:

When starting a daycare business, location plays a very important role. Working mothers and fathers do not want a detour to drop their children off before work. The location's accessibility and connectivity are vital, and it must be in a prominent area with plentiful transportation options.

3. Obtain the necessary licenses and certifications:

To start a childcare business in Dubai, you need a business license to do so. The easiest way to get your license is to take the support of a company formation agency like Flying Colour. Our business setup experts can manage the entire application process on your behalf, including communication and obtaining approvals with all required authorities. Aside from the license, you will require certifications from Dubai Municipality, KHDA, the Directorate of Civil Defense, and the Public Health Department.

4. Necessary equipment:

Your childcare facility will need books, toys, food, and playground equipment, among other things. If your daycare centre lacks these items, there is a high possibility that parents will select a different, well-equipped centre for their children.

5. Hire qualified staff:

Daycare is a people business. Parents must like and trust your staff. So, take the time to complete comprehensive interviewing and background checks.
