Agape Little Uni at Midview City

[Jenny Lam]

Both your kids in the centre? Any feedback? I went to peek last Saturday. Saw their staff washing the children’s cots but no children there. Any HFMD in that centre now?

[may mummy]

Which class will ur child enrolled ? Yes my youngest erolled for only 2 weeks n got HFMD. Last year the supervisor will inform parents by SMS if the centre got any cases so the HFMD rate abt 1 or 2 BUT this year they nv ( until very last stage ten they start inform )so both my kids got it n the rate is about 13 cases ( during the period my child got it ) if I nv remember wrongly.

I have yet enrolled my child. I thinking of putting my child at child care begining next year. So I am still looking around. My friends’ centres only put notice at the entrance of the centres to notify parents about HFMD. HFMD can spread very fast cos got incubation period. Cannot blame the centres only. Some of my friends centres got to close for 10 days. One of them said their centres got 20 cases. Those that got to close have their children at PG and they said their centres’ HFMD started from PG or infants. I heard if got 16 cases or more they have to close for 10 days. You mean Sunny Bunny used to inform parents about HFMD by sms? Do they put notice at the centre for parents to see? My friends’ centres don’t send anything by sms. The incharge of Sunny Bunny told me they have never been closed for HFMD. Most centre I asked wipe their mattresses only. I forgot to ask about the cleaning of cots when I visited Sunny Bunny. I saw them washing cots so I just wonder is it bcos of HFMD or it’s their regular practice to wash the cots? I did ask the cleaners, they said they wipe everyday and wash and the cots every 4 weeks and not bcos they have HFMD now. Don’t know true or not?

So far centre never closed before. They have a cleaner which I agreed she is very good and hardworking. During that period the cleaner nt around tat mayb the case.( back to hometown) . I am very happy with the services they provide to SMS parent . Honest speaking putting notice no parent will go check as in morning we nd rush to work and nite everybody is rushing back. So far I can see improvement in my kids so to me I think it is a good school. My kids enjoying going to school. Most important the supervisor will look into parent feedback & concern . unlike other child care Juz listen ten never do anythings.

Hi,


Any further feedback on Agape @ Midview City? I am thinking of switching my boy from another centre to the PG next month. Would appreciate if parents of current kids in PG can share your experiences with the teachers. Didn’t get to see the English teacher in action and only saw the Chinese teacher having music and movement classes with them when I visited.

As this is a transfer for my boy, I’d really hope I’ve made the right choice and won’t be transferring again anytime soon. Areas I am particular about include both teachers’ care and patience towards the children, speaks good English/Chinese, are open in their communications with parents, and also try to stick to the curriculum as much as possible so that activities are varied for the kids.

I did check out CherieHearts Nurtureloft but felt that the open concept may be a little distracting. I also wasn’t able to get a good feel of the curriculum as the principal didn’t explain much detail. Any info parents here can share? Thanks sooo much!

I don't know about mid view city but my boy is enrolled in another centre. When I gave feedback the school, the principal and directors were not receptive. Infact we were told to go find another school. A school that is not receptive and not open to feedback how good can they be.

The school in kallang is quite old and dirty, and the one at Cecil n cck has high turnover of teachers.

Dearparents i m looking for an alternative to nearby midview…

My girl is in agape i thought paying more would be good but i m so wrong…she fell sick twice running high fever…i m up this time cos she is running 39 degrees since in school but no one tell me. Like one mum mention they dun even do regular check on kids.

What is worse is that they tried to deduct extra money from our cda account and pretended they did not…we are dumb to out my girl there after 3 day trail seeing they use toliet paper to clean my girl mouth…but we can still read basic accountd numbers.

I hope my post can save other child from suffering the same fate…fever is no joke. My girl is hanging by the line.

The incharge Linda in Agape little uni in mid view city is very irresponsible and always Mia. Called up the school to enquire about infant care last Thursday and was told got 3 vacancies and will call me to arrange a viewing on Fri. She called me and we arranged on Friday at 2pm and she asked me to look for her. I reached at 2pm and the staff told me she went out for lunch . Will be back at 3pm. So I went back at 3pm and she still not around. Another teacher brought me around the infant care. 


I went back to consider and decided to enrol my bb to the agape and cancel another school. On Monday , I called to talk to her but again she was not around. I left my contact and name but this time never call back. I called again today she was hold on the line for quite a while then the teacher got back to me and said again she not around . Plus TOLD ME NO MORE VACANCY IN THE INFANT CARE. SHE SAID LINDA HAS OVERLOOKED . I told the staff I have confirmed two times with her and one time with the infant care in charge and was told there are slots. I rejected another side and now u told me no slots and just a sorry… we have overlooked. Plus the teacher just told me I just get the info from the top… nothing to do with me. 

I felt that the school management has very bad attitude and very irresponsible .

I am glad I didn’t enrol my boy inside. I can imagine anything happen… the in charge will MIA or maybe she don’t even know anything inside the school.

You have made the RIGHT Choice! The teachers there basically DO NOT communicate. Massages passed down was never received by the teacher-in-charge...is terrible! I used to have 2 kids there and I transferred the elder one to another childcare. Due to no vacancy to the childcare, I could not transfer my younger one as well. Only in end of November, i managed to get out from that terrible place, agape @ Midview City. I thought everything was over, but I was wrong. Having out from that centre for 1 month, guess what, Agape has not transfer my kid's name out from the centre, hence the new childcare could not register my kid and do all the necessary administration work. Immediately went over to the look for the principal but she was not around (it was a Saturday). Spoke to the teacher that was around and get her to call the principal and was told that she is not in-charge of this, she will call Linda. I told her to get Linda to call me personally and immediately (though is a xmas eve, I dun give a damn). In the end, it was the teacher whom I spoke to earlier that called me to apology, saying that Linda has overlook it and she will do it immediately to remove my kid's name from the center.
On the last day of childcare, I was told that the refund of my deposit will take 1 month and the center will give me a call once is ready. More than a month has passed, still no news. So i called in to check awhile ago. this Miss Chua or Mrs Chua asked for my kid's name and then said the cheque is ready can come collect. I got pissed off again this time. I told her, is already ready and no one even bother to call me to collect, this is terrible. She tried to fence herself by saying oh, is just ready and we are about to call parents to come collect.
Anyway, my point here is not the deposit. The point is, this is not a place for kids to go. Parents do think twice before you put your kids there. Look at how they handle issues and matters. Is really shaking head. There are other better centers out there, try harder and you will find.
Note: I did not mention anything about curriculum (also shake head).
