Do you mean in general or for particular branch?
If in general, you can use this for comparison.
Just Kids at Bt. Batok charges $577 per mth for full-day infant care after working mother subsidy of $600. For Del Care at Fuji Xerox Towers, they charge about $1000 after subsidy. It's not just the location (suburbs vs. CBD) but also the level of quality care involved. -

My daughter has been taken care by my parents until recently. My dad is having some health problem so I have to look for a full-day infant care center, preferrably in Toa Payoh area. Anyone having any recommendation? Please let me know…Thanks very much!!

Hi JaelynCoco,
You can check for a infantcare or childcare centre near your place at https://www.childcarelink.gov.sg/ccls/home/ChdCccSrch.jsp. They provide lots of useful info.
What we did was select a few of our preferred centres in our area, called them up then went down to orientate the places one by one. Try to go during the time when the babies/kids are around so you know how the teachers take care and handle them. Bring DD with you to see if she likes the place.
So far no regret in the centre we selected. DS has been there since he was 3 months old and he is 3 this year.
My neighbour changed 3 childcare centres for her daughter in 3 years.
Good luck! -

no prob.
i checked the rates too when i was pregnant last yr. however, due to my insecurity with infant care, wanting to breastfeed, inflexible working hrs and limited options where i live, dh and i decided tt i wld be a sahm until dd2 can go to a nearby ccc.
by the way, just kids at bt. batok accepts babies from 2 mths onwards and facilities-wise, i was impressed. i went during naptime so i didn't get the \"full experience\". i didn't visit del care since the fees were way above what i was willing to pay, even if they were as good as advertised. -

really? what happened? pm me?my son went to the same infantcare sch house as well. We have observed a drop in the infant sector teacher's professionalism and standard.
My feel is from happy to quite ok to now quite disappointed.

Does anyone has any feedback on My first Skool Infant care particularly the one at Simei Blk 135. I kinda shopping around for a while and so far this centre attracts me but I dunno anything about the teachers or caregiver history and programs. Can anyone share with me if they have any experiences with My First Skool?
