Hi,

Anyone have reviews on Kinderland at Kovan? I am thinking of switching my son from his current childcare to Kinderland.
Please do share if you have any reviews. Thanks in advance... :thankyou:

Hi,

My boy was fr kinderland kovan.
We used to adnored d staff there. Bt ever since d change of management,
lots of dedicated teachers had left.. I hv ever since pull out my gal fr toddlers class after a mere 3 days. @ 18mths she was being put onto d \"monkey climb\" n manoveur on her own! Had a near miss bt sure sent her fears dwn her spine n scream her head off! Contacted HFMD. Long story... Had reported to MCYS abt my concern wif their hygience n sharing a class of toddles n B4/after sch care...etc etc...best if all gvn above reason they still hv d cheek to chg me $260 for oni 3hrs for these 3days..

Things may chg after a yr.. Bt i hv simply lost faith in kinderland kovan,for such a premier price I rather venture a more dedicated environment where i can pl my trust in n better prep my Dd & DS for P1

Just my two cents..

Thanks for your feedback longmao.irene,

I just sat thru a trial class with my son this morning in the N2 classes. I find the English and Chinese teachers quite patient with kids although a few of them were getting restless after siting and listening to the teacher too long.
During tea break, I can see that there were a few toddlers playing at the playground. And there were an auntie(I think not a teacher, maybe a helper) there helping out. Hopefully, they have taken into the consideration of the feedback you have given.

Which year did you put your kids in kinderland? I am actually looking out for my newborn son which will joined his big brother in the same childcare.

Anyone put ur kid at kinderland serangoon? I am deciding between kinderland serangoon or a church based school which charge 50% less for a term!

I have two kids at Kinderland Serangoon since Nursery. My DD is currently P1 and DS still in K1, you can PM me if you need any information on the school.

Any parents put your kids in kinderland Novena? How the curriculum? Is this a franchise since it is called Kinderland Educare Services Pte Ltd?

Hi,


Does anyone have any feedback about this new centre at MOE?

TIA.

Can anyone give any recommendation for Kinderland @ Sengkang for infant care. I recently visited the place. It looks clean and hygienic but I find that the teachers are not very warm and overwhelmed with work load. Does anyone else feel the same. Even the Principal sounded very bossy. TIA

Trust your gut instinct. Look around for one that has full glass transparent window for people to look in. This type of centre has transparency.

Thanks sembgal, this place has glass door but the teacher dont sound enthusiastic. They are ever so tired and worn down. Is this the case with other child care teachers as well even though they follow MCYS teacher: student ratio. I dont know if it is just my instinct or will I find this everywhere else and hence have settle in for Kinderland.

These little gestures will be reflected in the way the teachers interact with your child. If any mothers were to place themselves in the positions of infantcare or Childcare teachers, would you like it if you have to change diapers, feed milk, burp, etc, one baby after another and yet get complaints by parents when parents come to pick up the babies?

Hi,

Anyone have send their child to Kinderland at Ministry of Manpower?
Please kindly give me your feedback.

Yes, maybe need to build up good relations woth the teachers and sup first beforvg any bad feedback, just have to bearwuth some stuff if you still can tahan. My gal was in a trial with another cc near sk and i think i made a mistakw of telling the sup abt some childcaring lapsrs that i saw when i was with my child for the first few days in the class,cos in less than a week afterr that,my child got a tertible bump on yhe head and nobody told me…i only knew it when my kid told me at the gate when i feych my kid home that day… poor kid, had been crying throout the day during the entire two week trial period there!all teachers claimed innocence and ignorant of how she got the injury…so horroid!meaning my child had been left on her own and ignored most of the time there, its no wonder she cant assimilate into the envuronment even after almost 10 days with them! My kid lost sooo mych weigt in that period and i only regreted not pulling out sooner…sometimes i cannot help but feel my feedback could have indirectly aggravated the situation…sigh, now i am back to waiting foe a suitable cc to put my kid in…sianz!
