Future’s So Bright! Best 20 Preschool Picks in Singapore 

Because your child’s future depends on it, choosing the best preschool in Singapore requires careful consideration and deliberation.

Thankfully, there are plenty of great options for your little one’s first educational experience. To review only the top ones for you, we made sure to follow a stringent set of criteria.

How We Picked

Class size and teacher-student ratio – We considered the class size and teacher-student ratio, as smaller class sizes and a lower student-to-teacher ratio allow for more personalised attention and interaction.
Curriculum – We specifically looked for preschools that offer a well-rounded curriculum focusing on holistic development, including cognitive, social, emotional, and physical aspects.
Philosophy and values – To understand the preschool’s educational philosophy and values is to ensure that they align with your own beliefs and goals for your child’s early education.
Facilities and resources – We checked if the preschool has age-appropriate facilities like safe and stimulating play areas, learning materials, and resources that support a child’s growth and exploration.

Since its establishment in 1990, Greentree Montessori has been dedicated to creating an environment where every child’s unique journey is embraced and cherished. 

We like its succinct and simple yet powerful mission: to ensure that every child experiences the joy and wonder of their one and only childhood. After all, its founder believed that a school should celebrate children being themselves.

We talked to several parents of kids who go there. They told us that the renowned Montessori method is one of Greentree’s most enticing features. 

That, and its aim to empower children to become confident, independent thinkers and lifelong learners.

One of the things that make the Montessori method special is the mixed-age classes, where children have the opportunity to learn and grow together.

The downside is that there are only two locations in Singapore, so there are fewer chances of kids from other areas enrolling in a Greentree Montessori class.

Pros

  • Basic subsidies are available for both working and non-working mothers (Singaporean Citizens only)
  • Montessori and mixed-age approach for children 18 months to 6 years old 
  • Kids go through uninterrupted 3-hour work cycles

Cons

  • Only has two locations
  • Requires a registration fee of S$200 per child

Customer Reviews

They also teach Phonics and basic math foundation concept, sensory materials, trinomial cubes etc. The environment is great for kids too! Lots of trees and plants.” – ‘CC CC’

With two decades of expertise, Star Learners seems to have that magic touch when it comes to nurturing little ones’ early years. And a lot has to do with its literature-based curriculum that uses children’s stories from all over the world.

This curriculum has taken our young nephew on incredible adventures, unlocking a world of knowledge across various learning areas. From problem-solving to creative thinking, his Star Learners education has always been a fun one for him.

Another noteworthy thing about Star Learners is that it’s one of the biggest partners under the ECDA POP (Partner Operator) scheme. This means it’s committed to being accessible and affordable while delivering top-notch education.

However, if you have special-needs learners or those with developmental delays, Star Learners will need to assess their suitability for classes first. 

Pros

  • Thoughtfully-curated international children’s literature in its curriculum
  • Subsidies available for working and non-working mothers
  • Play-with-purpose approach to learning

Cons

  • lClosed on weekends
  • Special-needs learners to be admitted on a case-by-case basis

With relationships at the heart of its unique curriculum, it’s hardly surprising that the kids who attend My First Skool immediately feel like they’re part of the family. At least, that’s what our colleague’s daughter told her.

At My First Skool, it’s not just about the basics like math and literacy (although those are covered too). It also aims to shape socially-adept, resilient, and innovative young minds with practical skills that come in handy as they transition to primary school.

What we found particularly fascinating are its inquiry-based projects for 4 to 6-year-olds. These dive into intriguing everyday topics, helping children understand the world and their role in the community.

But please note that if your child is vegetarian, you’ll need to consult with the principal of your My First Skool branch of choice during registration. The preschool itself doesn’t provide vegetarian meals, though it does serve healthy food.

Pros

  • Subsidies and financial support offered to parents
  • Full-day daycare services available
  • Over a hundred island-wide locations

Cons

  • Doesn’t provide vegetarian meals
  • Some centres don’t have vacant slots

Customer Reviews

The teachers are kind and thoughtful

The teachers are kind, thoughtful and will always update you on important events. Teacher Di from nursery has been really great to our daughter from day 1.” – Rashmi Sethi

Little Skool House is renowned as one of the leading child care centers in Singapore, offering a distinctive approach to early childhood education. With an emphasis on bilingualism, award-winning teachers, and diverse enrichment programs, Little Skool House aims to provide children with unique experiences that shape their future success and foster a love for learning from the outset.

They boast a proven bilingual curriculum that ensures children become highly proficient in English and Mandarin. Through rigorous teacher training and immersion in each language separately, children develop strong language skills and readiness for primary school, setting them up for success in Singapore’s education system.

The center takes pride in its award-winning teachers, recognized for their excellence in teaching since 2012. With accolades such as the MOE Outstanding Mother Tongue Language Award and ECDA Outstanding Preschool Teacher Award, parents can trust in the expertise and dedication of the teaching staff.

What’s great about them is that they have established partnerships with prestigious corporations and institutions in Singapore, including ministries, tertiary institutions, healthcare institutions, and banks. This partnership demonstrates the center’s reputation as a trusted provider of childcare services and its commitment to supporting working parents.

The center offers diverse enrichment programs that excite and engage children, introducing them to various activities ranging from arts and sports to STEM. These programs enrich the learning process and equip children with the skills they need to thrive in a rapidly changing world.

Little Skool House may have limited availability for enrollment, particularly during peak seasons or for specific age groups. Securing a spot for your child could be challenging, requiring early registration and potentially long waiting lists.

  • Proven Bilingual Curriculum
  • Award-Winning Teachers
  • Preschool Partner of Choice

Admittedly, what first got our attention at Little Paddington Preschool were the thoughtfully-designed outdoor spaces that are spacious, green, and filled with adventure. 

There are gardening patches and pirate ships to water play areas, sand pits, cycling tracks, and even a petting zoo! We reckon any child will have endless fun while learning and exploring here.

Its curriculum also strikes a balance between child-directed and teacher-guided activities, encouraging children to be curious, creative, and actively involved in their learning journey. 

We like that Little Paddington goes beyond the confines of the classroom to provide hands-on experiences that bring learning to life. After all, a nurturing and exciting environment is where children can develop their full potential. 

However, we do wish that the school offers a straightforward pricing matrix for parents canvassing for their kids’ future preschools.

Pros

  • Offers specialist atelier programmes
  • Beautifully designed outdoor spaces
  • Educators go through intensive annual training

Cons

  • Infant care available at select campuses only
  • No readily available information on school fees

Customer Reviews

My kids are happy to go to school

“My kids are happy to go to school, always coming home with stories and new learnings to tell. I chose LPP for its big outdoor space (the little petting zoo was a bonus for my animals-loving kids) and its structural curriculum.

The Teachers are wonderful and did their best to keep the children engaged even during the circuit breaker’s HBL.” – Janice and Avery’s mom

The lessons are fun and engaging

“We are happy with our school of choice for Biraas – Little Paddington Preschool. They have great facilities including school pets! Their lessons are fun and engaging. The teachers are friendly and warm. Special thanks to PG Teachers who helped him settle well and enjoy school.” – Amanjeev

Since 2006, Mulberry Learning has been rocking the preschool scene, scooping up awards left and right. It’s even earned the ‘Established Brands’ honour at the Singapore Prestige Brand Awards several times.

Our friend’s son goes there, and she told us all about the curriculum and Reggio Emilia-inspired spaces. Aside from that, the bilingual mastery and her child’s ability to recite more Chinese poems than she can count have left her flabbergasted.

But Mulberry Learning’s secret weapon is called the Institute for Habits of Mind™ certification, which helps little ones stay focused like ninjas. So if your child is easily distracted, there’s a solution for you.

The facilities are quite impressive, as well. We’re talking indoor sand playgrounds, mini race tracks, and even a water play area in certain branches!

Of course, these and other Mulberry features don’t come cheap. Expect a bit of a steep price to pay for a child who’ll be moulded into critical thinking and creative problem-solving (so best save up for it!).

Pros

  • Best Holistic Learning Programme awardee for three years
  • Focuses on self-directed learning
  • Offers early literacy, bilingualism, and mathematics programmes

Cons

    • Slightly higher school fees
    • Shorter operating hours on Saturdays

Customer Reviews

Genuinely cares for their students

“Both my children attended Mulberry Childcare and I can say confidently that the teachers at Tanjong Pagar Mulberry Learning Centre care genuinely for their students and deliver both childcare and teaching with much attention and affection. My older boy still talks fondly of his time there and his younger sister enjoys going to school. No regrets choosing Tanjong Pagar Mulberry Learning Centre for both my kids – it turned out to be the right choice.” – Jo Yeo

All the staff are friendly

“What a great Childcare centre, with passionate teachers, who build a strong foundation for the kids ahead. All the staff are friendly. It was like 2nd home for my 2 kids, for 9 years straight, every single morning I had no need to struggle to send them to school. They will happily run in to find their teachers. Even though the price is not that cheap, it really shows the quality of the education they are given. No regrets to spend that amount of money just for childcare. Can see from the pic, the very last day of school. The kids still want to go inside again.” – Dora Santi Jusuf

If you’re looking for a preschool that’s always on the cutting edge of early education, consider MindChamps. It’s designed a preschool programme that’s backed by research and development in education, psychology, neuroscience, and theatre. 

The staff is made to understand that as the demands of each generation change, so does the curriculum. Its teachers also undergo a full 200-hour training course to master proprietary learning techniques, ensuring they bring out the best in every student. 

MindChamps’ teacher-child ratio is well within the guidelines set by the Early Childhood Development Agency (ECDA) for licensed childcare centres, too. This means each child gets the attention, care, and support they deserve.

However, it’s worth noting that MindChamps’ fees are on the higher spectrum of national average rates. And the basic subsidy for childcare programmes is set at only S$300.

Pros

  • Offers enrichment modules
  • Great teacher-student ratio
  • Accepts local and international kids

Cons

  • Paragon, Sentosa, and Sengkang branches have slightly higher fees
  • Pricier rates compared to others

My son is now a very expressive kid

“My son just loves going to Mindchamps every day! At home, he will start talking about his day in school, about his friends, his teachers, about what he learnt and how he’s having fun at school. He’s now a very expressive kid and not shy to share his views, engaging in talks with adults. Having joined Mindchamps Marina Square since PG, he knows all the teachers and of cos, we do not see many turnovers for teachers. In summary, we are so glad to have our son at Mindchamps Marina Square.” – Ai Li Tay

Mindchamps has been instrumental in instilling valuable knowledge in my kids

“Mindchamps has been instrumental in nurturing and instilling valuable knowledge in my kids. I never have to worry when my kids are in school and I cannot thank the teachers enough for taking such good care of them. The fact that my boy who has left Mindchamps, still misses his preschool teachers says so much! Thank you to the awesome teachers!” – Sylvia Liu

Superland Pre-School utilises the Montessori method and a curriculum packed with practical life skills, sensorial experiences, language development, numeracy, and cultural activities. 

We know this because a couple of our kid cousins are enrolled at the Ganges branch. We’re telling you—those are some of the most self-assured kids we’ve come across!

Sounds good? Wait ‘til you hear about its bilingual immersion program with an added third language seamlessly woven in!

Hands-on parents would also love to know about how Superland believes in the power of family engagement and actively encourages parental involvement. Plus, the preschools boast brand-new and modern facilities for growth and development.

Do note that Superland is a Montessori-integrated school and not a full-on Montessori centre. But it’s every bit a preschool where kids are encouraged to be artistic, athletic, and musical and enjoy a range of other exciting activities.

Pros

  • Offers a wide range of enrichment classes
  • Encourages parental and family engagement

Individuality takes the spotlight and learning becomes an exciting adventure at Pat’s Schoolhouse (which is set to be rebranded as The Schoolhouse by Busy Bees soon). 

Its warm and family-centric environment celebrates each child’s unique spirit with a no-uniform policy (that our cosplaying neighbourhood kids seem to love). They enjoy play-based learning which ignites their curiosity and a lifelong love for exploration.

We’re pretty impressed with Pat’s Schoolhouse’s facilities. They’re designed to inspire experiential learning at every turn, with delightful sand play, refreshing water play, and sprawling outdoor or indoor spaces for endless discovery. 

But it especially shines with its arts and music program where self-expression takes centre stage. The curriculum goes beyond the basics, introducing subjects like STEM, speech, and drama, ensuring each child develops a well-rounded set of talents.

However, Pat’s school fees are on the pricier side of the spectrum (averaging S$2,108). There is a Parent Ambassador Programme that can give discounted fees in particular branches, but it’s not always a guaranteed option.

Pros

  • No-uniform policy
  • Parent Ambassador Programme for discounted fees
  • Music-integrated curriculum
  • Modern, fun facilities

Cons

  • Pricey school fees
  • Not all branches offer infant care programmes

An excellent and professional childcare centre

I am grateful to the teachers for making learning fun and enjoyable with their passion and patience. Ultimately, teachers are what make a school great.

My kids are very happy here

“I took my kids out from a very dirty preschool where they hired teachers with no qualifications. I am very glad we found Pat’s schoolhouse. the campus is very clean and the communication between teachers, school management and parents is very transparent. I can follow up with the development of my children easily. My kids are very happy here and the teachers here are so lovely, sweet and professional.

If you want a Ministry of Education-approved and affordable preschool, look no further than MOE Kindergarten. A couple of our buddies’ kids go to MOE schools for both fee and curriculum-related reasons.

MOE Kindergarten’s team of curriculum specialists work to develop and oversee a top-notch curriculum. It’s made up of two flagship programmes: the HI-Light Programme and the Starlight Literacy Programme. 

The HI-Light Programme is designed to support children in six learning areas. It covers the world of aesthetics and creative expression, the wonders of discovery, language and literacy, motor skills development, numeracy, and social and emotional development.

Meanwhile, its Starlight Literacy Programme paves the way for effective bilingualism by offering English along with Chinese, Tamil, and Malay. Both programmes allow a seamless transition to primary school.

But bear in mind that MOE Kindergarten may have limited slots due to high demand. This could result in a competitive enrollment process or potential difficulties securing a spot for your child.

Pros

  • Structured key learning areas
  • Affordable fees and available subsidies
  • Allows seamless transition to primary school

Cons

  • High demand could mean limited slots
  • Standardised approach to teaching and learning may not cater to specific learning needs

MapleBear places special emphasis on making language learning fun, interactive, and effective. We appreciate its unique approach to ensure that a child not only learns the language but also develops a deep understanding and appreciation for the culture.

We interviewed a parent of a MapleBear student who told us all about the daily updates she receives through the school’s proprietary app. Pretty impressive, we must say.

She also mentioned a strong sense of community within the school, as Maple Bear organises various events that bring parents, teachers, and students together. This is on top of a preschool curriculum crafted by Canadian teaching experts.

But because of its reputation for having a comprehensive curriculum and limited-sized classes, available spots may be limited—leading to frustrating waitlists.

I never had to worry once throughout the years about my son

“My son, Reyler, first joined the Toddler class of Maplebear Alexis in September 2017 and today marks the last day of his K2. Sending my son to Maplebear Alexis was truly one of the best decisions I’ve made. As I look back at all the photo updates of his daily activities as well as of special events throughout these 4 years, I could really see his joy and growth and that of his friends as well. Thank you to everyone at Maplebear Alexis for taking care of him and giving him an amazing childhood. I never had to worry once throughout these years and their hygiene level and communication with parents is impeccable. Really I cannot recommend them enough, keep up the good work and thank you for loving Reyler!” – Liu Qiumei

Raffles Kidz, an established name in Singapore’s preschool landscape since 2013, presents itself as more than just a childcare center—it’s a place where young minds thrive, grow, and develop in a nurturing and stimulating environment.

We like that they aim to create an environment where children can learn, play, and make new friends, fostering a positive and enjoyable atmosphere for early childhood education.

Aside from this, Raffles Kidz offers a range of childcare programs, including half-day, early dismissal, and full-day options. This flexibility ensures that parents can choose a program that aligns with their schedule and their child’s needs, making it a convenient choice for families.

Note though that there might be class size limitations for each level that they offer that parents should be aware of for their child.

Overall, Raffles Kidz emerges as a promising preschool option in Singapore, with a strong focus on structured learning, parental communication, and a variety of program options. The positive learning environment, coupled with recognition from industry leaders, underscores the preschool’s commitment to excellence.

Pros

  • Enriching Learning Experience
  • Structured and Interactive Curriculum
  • Variety of Program Options
  • Quality Infrastructure

Cons

  • Class sizes may be limited

Right off the bat, we liked how Brighton Montessori’s preschool programme maintains smaller class sizes to ensure that every child receives guidance and attention. This allows a supportive and engaging learning environment where children can thrive.  

Its enhanced curriculum includes pre-nursery, nursery, and kindergarten programs, and is designed to provide a well-rounded educational experience.

A chat with some of the staff revealed that the teachers focus on individuality and personalised learning for each kid. Brighton’s curriculum is enriched with a variety of programs that cater to the diverse interests and needs of each student.

It’s a good option for parents who wish for their kids to learn independently and at their own pace. But be prepared to make an S$800 application fee as part of the enrollment process.

Pros

  • Individualised learning pace
  • Good teacher-child ratio
  • Teaches practical life-skill lessons

Cons

  • Doesn’t offer infant care services
  • Not a lot of enrichment programmes available
  • Requires an S$800 application fee

Customer Reviews

Great early childcare education and attentive teachers

“In a span of 4 months plus, my son learns so much from this school! Great early childcare education and attentive Teachers! Great job!” – Celine Tan Sze Lin

Our girls have become independent and lifelong learners

“The preschool was the best choice for our children because of its educational philosophy. We appreciate the multi-age groupings to foster peer learning, the self-directed learning time and the focus on sensory-motor activities. Our girls’ experiences in Brighton Montessori have laid the foundation for them to be independent and eager lifelong learners! The teachers at Brighton make the school a welcoming, nurturing and fun environment–evident by the no-tears drop-offs!” – Margery and Daniel Lynn

Since its establishment in 2008, Blue House International has been inspired by the renowned Reggio Emilia approach, valuing education as an active and dynamic process. 

One of the first things we noticed during a visit is how dedicated educators see themselves as coaches and mentors. They guide children through thought-provoking questions and encourage them to discover their answers. 

The school’s approach is rooted in a strong foundation of traditional teaching techniques, providing children with a structured and well-rounded educational experience.

So if you’re the parent of a preschooler looking for the perfect balance between tradition and innovation in early childhood education, Blue House might just fill the bill.

We admittedly find the fees a bit on the steep side. But the facilities and values that the school offers might be able to justify them in the end. 

Pros

  • Inclusive learning environment
  • Clean, beautiful learning centres
  • Drop-in sessions available

Cons

  • Requires a non-refundable fee of S$1,402 per child
  • Pricey fees

Clean, big space and thoughtful themes

“Highly recommended for its clean, big space, thoughtful themes and activities amongst lovely lush greenery. Worth the travel from anywhere.” – Lydia Nah

Anyone who has the opportunity to send their child here is very lucky

“We love Bluehouse! Our daughter joined Bluehouse Nursery at the beginning of the year and loved it. We have just left Singapore (in the last week)and are currently looking for a nursery that is both Emilia Reggio-inspired and comes close to our experience at Bluehouse and is really struggling – we have been so spoilt. Anyone who has the opportunity to send their child here is very lucky!.” – Hanna Luton

If it’s international preschools you’re looking for, we highly suggest adding One World International School to your shortlist. It offers an early childhood programme that is guided by the English National Curriculum.

But it’s not a serious hitting-the-books type of curriculum, as it also emphasises a play-based and inquiry-led approach to learning.

At OWIS, great emphasis is placed on creating a safe and inviting learning environment for all students. The school features bright and airy classrooms that provide a conducive space for exploration and discovery. 

Additionally, outdoor areas are thoughtfully designed to offer sensory learning opportunities, allowing children to engage with nature and stimulate their curiosity while ensuring their safety and well-being.

There are only two physical campuses in Singapore, though, which is a letdown.

Pros

  • Bright and airy classrooms 
  • Low student-teacher ratio
  • Play-based and inquiry-led curriculum

Cons

  • Requires a one-time non-refundable application fee of S$1,168 exclusive of local GST
  • Only two physical campuses in Singapore

Customer Reviews

My daughter was happy all year and improved academically

“We moved to Singapore in 2022 and it is a great experience so far. The teachers are the best part of the school; they truly care about the children. My daughter was happy all year and improved academically. This year my 3-year-old joined too and so far, she’s super happy too, she is learning and singing new songs. I highly recommend the school. They are very organized and well-staffed too.” – Neha Kohli Chandel

I can confidently say that it is one of the best schools in the country

“With my two children passing out of OWIS, I can confidently say that it is one of the best schools in the country. The curriculum has helped my son secure admission to a prestigious university in the US. Each member of the faculty has shown exceptional concern for the students. I would highly recommend the school.” – Evelyn Zousi

Since its establishment in 1999, Rain Trees International Kindergarten & Preschool has been creating a joyful and stimulating learning environment for young learners. 

With a foundation in the UK National Curriculum, the school offers a play-based approach that encourages hands-on exploration.

During our visit, we witnessed how the dedicated staff members ensured that each child feels secure and content in a warm and nurturing setting, fostering their overall well-being.

The school also offers a play-based approach that encourages hands-on exploration. It gives off a nice overall cosy and intimate feel without taking away from a solid curriculum.

Alongside the UK National Curriculum, the school incorporates bilingual education to help children develop proficiency in multiple languages. This allows children to engage with and learn from different cultures and, it fosters global awareness.

Honestly, the only thing we find lacking here is a straightforward fee matrix, as parents and guardians need to request more information about rates.

Pros

  • International preschool curriculum in an intimate setup
  • Encourages personal, social, and emotional development
  • Uses a play-based approach

Cons

  • Only one location in Singapore
  • Doesn’t operate on weekends

Customer Reviews

It has a small intimate feel as though your child is an important part of the school

“As soon as you join Rain Trees you feel part of the Rain Trees family. It has a small intimate feel and you feel as though your child is a very important part of the school and not just another pupil. My Daughter is currently in Dragonflies with Ms Terisa and seems to be well ahead of her peers attending other nurseries, this seems to have been achieved in a very fun and nurturing environment where they learn through play-based activities. We have decided to keep our Daughter at the school for the final year, rather than moving her to a large international school for the nursery year as we have heard fantastic feedback about the Busy Bee year, teacher and class size.“ – Sarah and Alex Vaulkhard

The staff is absolutely fantastic

“Rain Trees International is a truly wonderful school! The education environment is kind and caring, nurturing the full potential of each child. The staff is absolutely fantastic, from the friendliest admin staff I’ve ever encountered to the passionate and enthusiastic teachers. Both my sons are at Rain Trees. My eldest son has been to several schools, as we have moved around a bit, and this is by far his favourite school. My younger son has just started and the transition has been a breeze. He already loves school! I highly recommend this school for those seeking excellent education in a nurturing and caring environment.” – Julie Smith

Kindle Garden takes pride in being Singapore’s first inclusive preschool, where every child is valued and embraced for who they are. 

Its holistic approach ensures that both typically-developing children and children with additional needs receive a non-discriminatory curriculum. We like this very much.

Based on some of our colleagues’ testimonies, it looks as if the school has successfully brought forth a nurturing and supportive environment for kids of all development types.

Another great thing about Kindle Garden is how it actively involves the students’ parents. They’re allowed to participate in school activities, field trips, and learning journeys to be an integral part of their child’s growth and development.

The only downside we see thus far is that the school doesn’t operate beyond the weekdays. And there’s only one Kindle Garden location, which might pose a problem for those living farther away.

Pros

  • Holistic approach for typically developing and additional-needs kids
  • Encourages active parental participation
  • Offers bilingual instructions

Cons

Merlion Kids is a highly regarded child care centre in Singapore, especially for parents seeking to raise their children in a bilingual environment. 

The preschool follows a comprehensive curriculum that combines the Neuroscience Developmental Curriculum Framework, Singapore Kindergarten Curriculum Framework, and an exploratory and experiential approach. 

It also promotes emotional regulation and social skills, fosters curiosity and reasoning abilities, and encourages critical thinking and motivation. We’re pretty impressed with its exploratory approach to learning.

However, it falls short when it comes to accommodating numerous kids, as there’s only one Merlion Kids campus in Singapore (ironic, we know!).

  • Structured holistic learning

Brainy Child Montessori is a preschool designed to foster cognitive and social development across all levels of learning. It uses the Montessori method of teaching and learning and strives to provide a superior educational experience for its students.

One of our friends describes how the centre offers a quality education that goes beyond academics, emphasising character building and instilling strong values at the same time.

One of Brainy Child’s unique offerings is the Mum and Tot Programme. If you want to be there during your child’s first early education foray, you’ll be able to start school together in class!

But since there’s only one location in Singapore, and if you’re nowhere near Orchard Plaza, you might need to look elsewhere for a mother-child preschool class.

  • Offers a Mum and Tot Programme 
  • Specialised preschooler programmes
  • Open daily

Cons

  • Only one location in Singapore

The teachers nurture the kids’ abilities

“My son has been in Brainy Child for over 2 years. We attended weekend classes and moved on to daily classes. He loves the school and its teachers. The teachers are patient and kind. They nurture the kids’ abilities and accommodate their personalities. They take an effort to pick up on children’s preferences. I am grateful for the school being there during these important years of his life. The beginning years of child development are crucial in Montessori and I am glad I found this school! Thanks, Brainy Child for everything. We will miss you all!” – Sudipta Saha

I was constantly amazed by the creative and thoughtful lesson plans

“I am so grateful for the positive experience Mili has had at Brainy Child Montessori. The teachers are truly exceptional and have created a warm, welcoming, and engaging learning environment. Mili has thrived under their care and has developed both socially and academically. I was constantly amazed by the creative and thoughtful lesson plans and activities that the teachers came up with to keep the children engaged and excited about learning. The staff are all kind, patient, and genuinely love working with young children. I highly recommend Brainy Child Montessori preschool to any parent seeking a high-quality Montessori education for their child.” – Akhila Joseph

The Odyssey’s core curriculum focuses on project work, literacy, math skills, and Chinese Language Immersion programmes. But if your kid is creative, fret not.

The school also understands the importance of art, music, and sports in a child’s holistic development. That’s why its creative curriculum places a strong emphasis on these areas, too.

It’s designed to engage children in hands-on activities and interactive learning experiences to promote active exploration and discovery.

Though the school fees are way out of our league (and presumably our future kids’), we couldn’t resist visiting one of the Odyssey campuses. Boy, these students are lucky to have a museum, kitchen, art studio, and other interactive facilities!

The creativity and holistic learning are only confined to weekdays, though, as The Odyssey doesn’t operate on Saturdays. We also have to note that the fees are on the higher end of the spectrum (as would be expected of a global preschool).

Pros

  • Topnotch interactive facilities
  • Multi-awarded preschool
  • Offers a creative, math, and literacy-based curriculum

Cons

  • Expensive school fees
  • Doesn’t operate on weekends

I’ve seen my son’s growth and ability to socialise

“My son is attending Odyssey at Still Road since March 2022. I have seen his growth and ability to socialise with his friends and teachers. We are very pleased with the staff especially the teachers who are teaching and who had taught him since he started schooling. Especially thankful to the teacher in charge, Ms Kaitlyn Tan, who has closely followed his growth and always updated us on his well-being.” – Joel Leong

The outdoor space provides an alternative learning experience

“Love the ambience there. The outdoor space provides an alternative learning experience. My kids adapt well there. They learnt about independence. My son does not eat vegetables, but only at school, he would finish, and not being a picky eater. Teachers were attentive, and communicate well with the parents. And do things in sync with what’s happening at home. Great teacher and student ratio.” – Joanna Ibrahim

The curriculum at Kiddiewinkie Schoolhouse is creativity-inspired, incorporating innovative and experiential learning approaches. It’s the main reason why a married artist couple we know enrolled their young one there.

The school also embraces diversity and celebrates cultural richness through cultural celebrations and character development programmes. That—on top of a bilingual curriculum.

But what we especially like about Kiddiewinkie is how it strikes a balance between play and school readiness, ensuring that children have fun while acquiring essential skills. 

Our parent friends appreciate that the school fosters a sense of belonging while instilling positive values in their child. And the additional facilities at some of the campuses are impressive—baking rooms, sand lots, outdoor playgrounds, etc.

So far, the only thing that bothers us is that school fees could vary depending on the Kiddiewinkie location.
