I've just check out YMCA and YWCA in Bishan. Both do not have school bus.

hi insider,

Can you also PM me about the kindergarten in Bishan that you mentioned?
My girl will be attending N1 next year, and till now, I have not registered her in any yet.

Not sure if the one you mentioned will have N1 and N2 levels, but it’ll be good for me to KIV.

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

I would like to seek comments/recommendations for a good CCC for my 4.5yr old boy. Currently he attends a 3hrly Nursery class at a Church Kindy via schoool bus and travelling time per day is abt1hr 30mins. I am a working mother so weekends are spent on enrichments and activities, would say very little time for family bonding as I have another15mths old at home.

I would like to find a good CCC with enrichment incorporated so that our weekends are free up for other familiy activitives and myself to do housework(gave up the idea of maid).

I am staying in Toa Payoh Lor8 and as most of the times hubby and myself need to work late and my mum cannot help to fetch as health condition no good and with 2 kids outside cannot handle, so would preferably if the CCC has transport services. Does anyone has a good recommendation?

I know of the following around TPY

1) KInderland @ Safra (no schoolbus) / Music enrichment incorporated
2) NTUC (no schoolbus)
3) The little SchoolHouse (no schoolbus) / Enrichment lessons are on Sat and additional costs.


Does anyone has a good CCC recommendation or any comments on the schools above? Appreciate yr help in advance!

hi dear,

i think i'm very late in replying... there is a CCC in Block 141 Toa Payoh Lor 2... i think it's called Jessin... u might want to try it out....

cheers

hi,

my 2 yr-old girl is attending learning kidz at amk hub, 2 hrs per day, 2x a week. she's been there for only 2 weeks. but i'm finding it difficult to bring her to school and wait for 2 hrs until her class is done.

since we live in toa payoh lorong 6, i am looking for a preschool 2-3 hrs a day, or half day child care so i can do some housework while she's in school. i prefer a school near our place. i have checked my first skool but im on waitlist. jessin, wesley and q-dees only accept 3yo and above.

anyone have sent their kid to zong xiang or deerland, young talents preschool?

Hi


I am going to shift to Bishan in august and looking for a good pre school for my 30 months old boy.

Inquired Unitied Montessori but no vaccancy.

Please give me some suggestion.

[georgewong22]

United Montessori is probably the best childcare in my opinion around that area. When I enrolled my daughter the last time, they were full too. They are allowed to accept if they write in to MOE for special approval. I had to beg the properitors, Dennis and his wife (forgot her name).


I personally didn’t like YMCA, YWCA, Twinkle and the rest comparatively. The other I had shortlisted is Bishan East’s 3-in-1. Try to check out PCF at Block 197 too.

Good luck.

Hi

How about Sunny Bunny Montessori at Sin Ming Avenue? Any feedback on it?
I am also looking around Upp Thomson area down to Bishan for a good child care for my 30mo. Will appreciate any recommendation too

Hi, noticed there isn't a thread on playgroups or I might have missed it.
Thinking of placing my girl to playgroup when she reached 18mths. Can anyone recommend any playgroup? The content, duration and cost?
