Dhahran - Post Report Question and Answers

Are preschools available? Day care? Are these expensive? What has been your experience with them, if any? Do the schools provide before- and/or after-school care?

People here seem to either utilize daycare if available at their compound, stay-at-home moms (since it is difficult for expat women to work), or nannies (a lot of Filipino nannies). - Apr 2016


My child goes to the nursery at the school next door. The nursery is open from 7:30am until 3:30pm. It's perfect for someone working part-time but can be problematic for families in which both husband and wife work full time. I LOVE the nursery!!! My daughter has learned so much. It's super inexpensive too. It averages about US$15 per day. Usually my monthly charge is around US$300. - Jun 2015


Care for small children is usually provided by nannies; young children (preschool age) do have the option to go to school at the international school for a few hours each day. - Jan 2014
