Meet Sam
Hi, I’m Sameena a mama of two beautiful boys, and the heart behind Zumbini with Sam.
I’m British, with Indian roots, and bring over 22 years of international experience in early childhood education across the UK, and all over GCC. I hold a Master’s in Education, and my journey has taken me from nursery practitioner to manager, and later into teaching Year 1 but my passion has always remained the same: giving children the strongest possible start in life.Early childhood education has always been more than a profession for me it’s a calling.
Now based in Dubai, this is where I’ve built my family, my community, and a space where music, movement, sensory exploration, and connection come together with intention.
I truly believe children don’t need more noise — they need connection, rhythm, and safe spaces where they can explore and feel seen.
Zumbini with Sam is about musical discovery giving children the space to explore sound, rhythm, movement, and emotions
