Insurance & Payment

Coverage & Financial Support

Insurance Reimbursement

Coverage for developmental therapy and early learning programmes varies by policy and insurer across the UAE. While direct billing is uncommon, many parents have successfully claimed reimbursement for our services. We provide all necessary documentation — stamped claim forms, receipts, and clinical reports — to make the process straightforward.

Guarantee of Payment (GOP)

Certain insurance providers process therapeutic and educational services through a Guarantee of Payment arrangement. When your policy supports this route, our administrative team manages the complete documentation workflow — from stamped forms and payment receipts to clinical investigation reports — ensuring a smooth approval experience.

Sanad Card Support

The Sanad Card, issued by Dubai's Community Development Authority (CDA), offers benefits for individuals with disabilities. BridgesCare provides aligned services — including tailored rehabilitation, personalised learning plans, early intervention, family guidance, and continuous progress monitoring — to support Sanad Card holders.

Tip: Check with your insurance provider or broker to confirm whether early childhood education, speech therapy, or developmental support services are included in your policy. Our admin team is available to guide you through the process.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What age group does the Bridge Learning Programme serve?

Our core programmes are designed for children between the ages of three and five. However, we also offer after-school enrichment and summer intensive streams for school-age children who benefit from additional therapeutic and academic support.

How is the Bridge Learning Programme different from a regular nursery?

Unlike a standard nursery, our programme integrates therapeutic expertise — speech therapy, occupational therapy, and behavioural support — directly into the learning environment. Every child receives a holistic development plan overseen by a multidisciplinary team of licensed professionals.

Does my child need a diagnosis to enrol?

No. The programme welcomes all children, including those with developmental differences, speech or language delays, sensory processing needs, or those who simply benefit from a more structured, nurturing early learning environment.

What does a typical day look like in the programme?

A typical session blends structured learning activities — circle time, phonics, numeracy — with free play, sensory exploration, social interaction, and targeted therapeutic exercises. The schedule is designed to balance focus and rest for optimal engagement.

How do you track my child's progress?

We use ongoing observation, developmental checklists, and portfolio-based assessment to monitor every child's growth. Parents receive regular progress reports and are invited to review sessions to stay informed and involved in their child's journey.

Can the programme be combined with individual therapy sessions?

Absolutely. Many families choose to pair the group learning programme with one-on-one speech therapy, occupational therapy, or ABA sessions for a comprehensive support plan. Our team coordinates across all services to ensure consistency.
