Prob 1k after subsidy!


My nephew went to Carpe Diem at Bukit Timah and from 300+ they increase annually till its $550 now (2 years time only).

I went to many centres and the fees are really not cheap. However, Mulberry LC at Jurong East promise to lock the rates in at $750 (aft subsidy) from point of registration till K2, unless we pull out. Super attracted by this offer!

may i know what will you do if this kinda situation happens to you…
My #1 has been in his CC since he was 18months and i have been ferrying him thru and fro from sch via cab because i have to bring my #2 along… everyday thru and fro $12. but because of the price increase of the cab fare, lets make it $15 per trip x 20days = $300.

recently the school send us a letter to inform all parents that there will be an increase of school fees… from initially of $680 to $730.

Initially i wanted to enroll my #2 to the same school, but now with the school fee increment. I dont know if i wanna change to another school "if i can find one…" keep them both at home "i have to give up my part time job".

Hi Enbin, the new childcare centre is a Cherie Hearts, somewhere in between Ang Mo Kio and Bishan/Thomson. Not sure if their 20% promotion is still available now, but you can check out their website http://www.cherieheartsnurtureloft.com.sg/about.html

Ahh.. I went there before. Its at the industrial area near to Sin ming LTA. Its about the same at First Centre in Serangoon/Yio Chu Kang area.

Actually I hope the grants keep pace with the eventual increase in CC fees.. Govt should help the parents more if they want fertility rates to rebound.


Currently, my son's CC is a new set-up and we are lucky to lock in a 20% discount for 12 full months, which certainly makes it easier on our pockets. No idea how fees will look like in a year's time given the inflation in Singapore - rents, food etc.
able to share which cc is tat or which area?

The centre’s increased fees over the years apply to newly joined kids only, who are paying $100 more than mine.

I think is all CC gonna increase the fees. As I am looking for a CC for my girl next year N2, I went to MCYS website to look at their prices, but when I call those CC, all CC tell me next year they gonna increase the price, some increase $50, some even up to $100. :slapshead:

Dunno izzit a trend, one increase, all increase... :grphug:


I did ask the reason for the increase, and they mention that coz everything also increase, including their rental, esp those hot spot area, like near mrt, even a CC at hdb branch office, hdb also increase their rental.. so they put the cost to us... :stupid:

Gov grant, :roll: I guess unless alot of parents write in to MCYS to complain den only will work ba... :rotflmao:
