Dear Kiasu parents..


Appreciate any recommendation on childcare centres in Bt Panjang/ Upp Bt Timah/ Hillview/ Toh Yi (Jln Jurong Kechil) area.

In addition, will also appreciate any comments about Learning Ladder (woodlands) opposite Ten Mile Junction.

Thank you in advance!

I would recomend NEWLIFE CHILDCARE @ Jelapang Road. It was under Church care and the teachers all really good in handling kids, the place also very big for kids, so when the HFMD spread.. they won't affected wo much.
My 2 kids grown up from there since 18 mths (playgroup class). Too bad, now I shifted to Woodlands and have trouble with the student care...

[quote]Hi, so sad to hear abt such kids abuse cases..

did you relate the whole issue to MCYS? MCYS will look into renewing of childcare licence upon expiring.
Luckily, my kid's childcare principal & teachers are not like them...[/quote]The very first thing, we called up MYCS, but they said that they didn't have the right to take action as this student care was run under private. Just for experience, for those who wanted to look for student care or child care. It is better to look for government base that MYCS could take action if anything go wrong. This is just for safe guard. We didn't intend to pursue the matter since my boy was fine and no any injury. Good luck for everyone..

...I never see by myself, but when I went there ard 6.30 to fetch them, my boy was sleeping on the chair and when i woke him up, his voice was hoarse can feel that after crying for more than half an hour. and at the same time my girl (P2 student) who is there too told me the whole exact story..where the director and the wife only stand behind me never bother to apologize or explain why they did like that.

Dear mickeyminnie, as this is now an open police case, it will not help if you discuss it in an open forum. I recommend that you do so only after there is a proper resolution that permits you to talk about your side of the story. In the meantime, you can use private messages to discuss with members of the community if you need advice.

hi, chief. Since my boy have not any injury and although we lodge police report, I didn't intend to discuss here. My intention only to let other parents know that this place not well recomended. That's all. Btw, thank you for the reminder, I appreciated it.

I hope the center director will be severely punished for the act.

Even if the child is naughty, they should not punished kid like that.
This is really crazy.

yah, i agreed. my kid only active, not a hyperactive boy and the director's mother in law who claimed to be a doctor told me that the child like my boy should be sedated.. I felt shocked to hear that.. very disappointed with them.

...The centre director (owner) tied up my boy's hands, legs and mouth and push the head on the cushion on the floor because he being naughty only...

:shock: That's definitely very bad. Did you see it happen yourself, or to other kids? But let's wait till the outcome of the investigation before we form any conclusions about this.

Hi, all. I’m new here and happened to read about this topic. However, just to inform that a student care in woodlands, I won’t quote the name, but the exact location is in woodlands north plaza 2nd floor. It claimed that they were doing research in kids development education and doctorate holder. But, in fact they are not responsible while you child was put there. They could teach student and in the other hand carrying baby…

The centre director (owner) tied up my boy’s hands, legs and mouth and push the head on the cushion on the floor because he being naughty only. I have lodge police report and it has been under police investigation and it just happened last tuesday. The whole incident was witnessed by a bunch of students including my girl and a part time teacher… and moreover, they claimed to be professional…but they just feed answer to the kids who did the homework there and 1 mth plus there, my girl’s result has been dropped. It really not recomended.
