We actually switched over from another school. The teachers at BT are very caring, attentive and incredibly sweet. We are always kept updated on our daughter's well being. Thanks to the teachers for doing what they do so brilliantly, it allows my husband and I to focus at work without any worry as we know that our baby is in good hands.

I will definitely recommend Brilliant Tots IFC to any parent looking for quality care for their babies. Teachers are very reliable and pay great attention to my baby's needs (eg washing with water for diaper rash, teaching him to drink water, learning to nap longer) Low teacher to child ratio. Consistent quality across all staff members. Every teacher + teacher assistant I met here are very approachable and accommodating.

Communication with parents is regularly done via the app. Teachers take initiative to share pics of activities more frequently than I expect. I'm also impressed by the variety of activities for infants designed by the teachers (eg baby basket ball, pulling ribbons, painting, picking balls) They never seem to run out of ideas! My baby looks forward to being dropped off at IFC every single day!

The facilities are very comprehensive , clean and safe for babies. Each infant gets a drawer of their own to keep things like diaper, creams, wipes ,etc. Other stuff like clothes, towels, bibs, socks have to be brought and replenished daily when you bring your baby.

Each infant gets a drawer of their own to keep things like diaper, creams, wipes ,etc. Other stuff like clothes, towels, bibs, socks have to be brought and replenished daily when you bring your baby. Things are well-organised and I get daily updates on feeding/napping/diaper through a notebook so it's fuss free. Whenever my son gets a diaper rash, teachers will clean him with water instead of wet wipes to help with his pain. Really super thankful to them for taking care of him so well.

My little girl attended infant care at Brilliant Tots Kensington Square. It was the most convenient for us as we were staying nearby. The staff were absolutely amazing. There were high turnover when my child was there, but it was managed well. There were no lapses in quality. The teachers were very caring and always up to date with my child's situation and needs. The low child- teacher ratio was a blessing. There is also very seamless parent-teacher interaction. I absolutely miss this centre - the family move to the east side and baby change centres for playground, otherwise we would've continued all the way.

My kids really enjoy their time at the school and sometimes pickups are also hard because they want to spend more time there! This demonstrates the great impact and devotion of their principal and teachers have on them. I would like to personally acknowledge Miss Jing Wen. who has been here since... My kids really enjoy their time at the school and sometimes pickups are also hard because they want to spend more time there! This demonstrates the great impact and devotion of their principal and teachers have on them. I would like to personally acknowledge Miss Jing Wen. who has been here since the start of the year to manage the school. She is a great listener and a good partner to work with to ensuring the best outcomes for the kids be it socially or academically. I would recommend the school to anyone who will appreciate a school that has a low student teacher ratio, and with the kids' best interests at heart.

Although there has been some staff movement here and there, I will still (highly) recommend this school to the others. Quiet location that is conveniently located near Serangoon / Tai Seng / Bartley area.
Other than the already low teacher / child ratio. We like that the school has a smaller pool of students than other schools. Hence, the teachers are able to focus more on the learning and growing of individual child. Also, fewer viruses spread around with fewer students. The teachers will communicate and post child updates / learning photos through the app. They have a friendly and dynamic Vice-Principal on the ground too!
My LO enjoys attending school every day. Do check the school out if you are considering IFC / Preschool for your LO.

Overall very good. My child attended infant care here. She really enjoyed herself, made some infant friends and loves her teachers. Overall very good. My child attended infant care here. She really enjoyed herself, made some infant friends and loves her teachers.

We asked a lot of questions (so sorry about it as we are first time parents), and she attended to our questions attentively. I like how the centre conduct outdoor and the children can go for walks frequently. My girl is very happy in school from the videos that were uploaded on FB. Thank you.

Disappointed with the admin processes. They have not refunded our deposit as yet even though our daughter has withdrawn from the school. The centre's principal is often uncontactible and is hard to communicate our issues with her. Moreover, there was no update everyday about the my daughter's progress and development etc without me asking. I had to ask everyday to ensure that my daughter was developing well. In general was rather disappointed for having signed my daughter up in this centre though they had seemed very professional at the very beginning.

History & Background

We named ourselves Brilliant Tots because our mission is exactly that—to produce Brilliant Tots.

We strive to provide three things for your child: a happy childhood, a nurturing classroom, and a safe and loving environment.

Education Philosophy

Our Programmes are structured on the MOE curriculum, with extra-curricular skills-based learning.

We apply the following two approaches in our pedagogy for children to learn and explore a subject comfortably and efficiently.

These approaches are designed to minimise stress while enhancing learning and development.

This pedagogy is key to our mission of providing a happy childhood, a nurturing classroom, and a safe and loving environment for children.

Special Enrichment Programmes

PHONICS
Toddlers / Pre-Nursery /
Nursery / K1 & K2
Phonics is the foundation of early reading and spelling skills.

Your child will develop phonic awareness, recognise vowel and consonant blends, and learn to read words phonetically (rather than by rote).

HAN YU PIN YIN
Nursery /
K1 & K2
Introduction to Han Yu Pin Yin provides your child a head start and ease him or her into Chinese curriculum in primary school.

Your child will learn to recognise consonant, vowel and vowel tones and to put them together to form Han Yu Pin Yin words.

PRE-WRITING
Toddlers / Pre-Nursery /
Nursery / K1 & K2
Young children build up hand strength and fine motor skills before they learn to write, copy or colour.

Pre-writing exercises are designed to enable young children to correctly grasp the pencil, practise hand-eye coordination, and refine hand movement to mark simple line strokes that form letters, numbers and early drawings.

BUILDING
VOCABULARY
Toddlers / Pre-Nursery /
Nursery / K1 & K2
Words are the building blocks of language and a good vocabulary bank is crucial in literacy.

The class is a language-rich environment where new words and expressions are emphasised, and introduced to your child both directly by instruction and indirectly as they are integrated into daily experiences and class activities.

CREATIVE
WRITING
Nursery /
K1 & K2
Compositional and writing skills encourage creative imagination and expression.

Your child will build a foundation for grammar and vocabulary to communicate his or her own thoughts with fluency.
