The Happy Hearts Nursery was established in 1979 with the aim of accepting the child as he is as an individual within the group and working on his mental, physical, educational and social development in a correct, sound and developed manner through a balanced and integrated environment.

The Happy Hearts Nursery receives children from the age of 40 days to three and a half years throughout the year. Children from the age of 4 years to six years are also received during school holidays and vacations.

The educational program qualifies three-year-old children to pass the entrance exams to kindergarten classes in schools through scientific activities in Arabic first and then in a foreign language, French or English, according to the child's age, abilities and the parents' desire.

The nursery organizes a number of activities during the year in which other institutions and care homes participate, including: Iftar for orphaned children in the holy month of Ramadan.

The nursery also receives school and university students throughout the year for training in its departments, and the association is keen to have nursery teachers participate in training courses in order to develop their abilities.

The nursery manager and its teachers also contribute by working with some elderly women in Dar Al Karama to fill their free time through manual activities that are beneficial to them psychologically, physically and morally. A medical team of specialists examines the children weekly and records notes on their health files.

The Child and Mother welfare Association, which carries the slogan “From Childhood to Old Age”, opened Dar Al Karama on Saturday, July 5, 1985, in implementation of the association’s goals of caring for the elderly and looking after them to preserve their dignity in a family atmosphere that suits them and to provide all their needs. The Child and Mother welfare Association strives with all its might to provide a decent life, health care, a family atmosphere and healthy food for the residents of Dar Al Karama.

A specialist doctor cares for the health of the elderly and visits them twice a week and sometimes several times if necessary. The home is also supervised by two managers with a medication management specialist, with the help of a number of nurses who take shifts day and night. The association always tries to entertain the elderly, especially on holidays and Mother’s and Grandmother’s Day occasions, and is keen on morning exercise. We also cooperate with the nursery officials to fill the void with coloring, drawing and handicrafts.

The floors have been rehabilitated to ensure complete comfort for the elderly, including heating and air conditioning. A new floor has also recently been renovated and equipped to receive new residents. Dar Al Karama is also visited by many university and school students to conduct research on the elderly and at the same time to entertain them as part of their educational programs.

The health sector enjoys an integrated system with modern medical skills and equipment in the following facilities and departments: the hospital, the first aid center (emergency), the primary health care center (clinic), oral and dental medicine, the laboratory department, the radiology and ultrasound department and the pharmacy.

All these departments are supervised by skilled doctors from several specialties in addition to a number of workers in the nursing, technical and administrative body. The association is keen on the development of the human apparatus in the health sector, through attending seminars, lectures and continuous training.

The association has been and still is a pioneer in vaccination campaigns since its establishment and keeps pace with the Ministry of Health with all campaigns to vaccinate children against: measles, German measles and murmps virus, polio, pertussis, diphtheria, tetanus, meningitis, jaundice and pneumonia. The number of beneficiaries reached 2,172 children. To encourage early detection of cervical and breast cancer, campaigns are organized annually, either free of charge with a donation from generous benefactors or at very minimal charges.

The hospital is a continuous workshop for development of necessary equipment that serves the interests of patients from needy groups, in addition to patients who visit the health sector due to the quality of its medical services and advanced machines. Development and equipment are carried out with the support of generous benefactors and local and international institutions. These donations enabled the association to renovate the second floor of the hospital and update the machines in the emergency delivery room and the dental clinic. It was also able to develop mechanization in all departments of the health sector.

The services of the Child and Mother welfare Association Hospital include general surgeries, urology, gynecology and obstetrics (natural and caesarean births), endoscopic surgeries and dental surgery for children, in addition to hospital treatments and palliative care for children and newborns.

The first aid department (emergency) at the hospital provides medical services. 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The number of beneficiaries reached 1,603 patients in 2019, in addition to 6,092 beneficiaries from the primary health care center (clinic).
