Umoja Day Nursery

Umoja One Day Nursery is a public early childhood education center owned and managed by the Nairobi City County government, located adjacent to the Umoja Health Centre on Moi Drive. As of late 2025, it remains part of a broader county initiative to formalize and upgrade pre-primary facilities to ensure they meet modern standards for safety, sanitation, and inclusive learning. Historically, the school has balanced a significant student population—including multiple streams of baby and nursery classes—with challenges such as infrastructure maintenance and consistent water supply. The school provides a foundation for children aged three to six, utilizing a curriculum that focuses on holistic development through structured play, literacy, and social skills. Parents typically pay a subsidized fee (previously reported at approximately Ksh 5,100 per term), and the facility often benefits from county-led support programs, such as the provision of learning materials, mattresses, and participation in the “Dishi na County” school feeding initiative to support student health and attendance.
