Review your Child's School

SMALL WONDER @ SIMS

I would rate the facilities and environment 5/5. The recent renovations have made the space feel fresh and spacious. That said, I can only speak from my experience with the infant care level. After a month of enrolling my son, I have to say that the experience has raised some serious concerns for me, particularly on the transparency and integrity in communication. On several occasions, I noticed that when I asked questions, I was given what sounded like the “perfect” answer, only to later discover that the information was not accurate. For example, my son has never been a particularly good eater. When I asked Teacher A whether he had finished his entire bowl of porridge or milk, I was repeatedly told, “Yes, yes, he finished everything.” However, when I later checked the app, another teacher, (the teacher who actually fed him, recorded that he had only finished most of it, and not all). This may seem like a small matter, but repeated instances like this make it difficult for parents to trust any information given by the school. Another more serious concern was his diaper rash. Within 2–3 days of starting school, my son developed a diaper rash. I informed the teachers that his diaper needed to be changed more frequently and that his bottom should be washed after a poop. After monitoring the situation for several days, we noticed that the clean towel we packed was consistently coming home untouched, while his diaper rash continued to worsen to the point where blisters appeared. I then asked Teacher A directly whether his diaper was being changed every 2–3 hours and whether his bottom was being washed after he pooped. I was again assured, “Yes, we wash, yes, we change.” However, there was subsequently a day where my son remained in the same diaper for five hours. Given the existing diaper rash, this was particularly concerning and made me question if the information provided was true. The final incident that really raised red flags about the school's integrity was related to Racial Harmony Day. I asked if photos had been taken of my son during the event. The same teacher told me that photos had indeed been taken and that they would be sent later that week. I was also told that he had done some artwork and gone on walks on certain days. However, no photos were uploaded ever since he enrolled, despite the understanding that photos would be shared weekly. When we followed up after the week since nothing was send, we were told that the photos would be send “later.” When they eventually arrived, they were photos covering the previous 2–3 weeks, but there were no photos from Racial Harmony Day. I asked again because I had specifically been told that photos had been taken. I was then told that I would receive them that evening. They did not arrive that evening and they were only sent the following morning. What was particularly shocking was that the photos appeared to show a reenactment of the Racial Harmony Day scene rather than actual photos from the event. This was quite obvious because my son wasn’t dressed in his Racial Harmony Day outfit. I find this extremely disappointing. There is absolutely nothing wrong with telling a parent that photos were not taken or unavailable. There is no need to create or fabricate something untrue. Doing so undermines trust and raises bigger questions about what else parents may be told that is not entirely accurate. I do have reservations about how the infant care level is being managed based on these experiences. At the same time, I recognise that this could potentially involve specific individuals rather than the entire school. I am sure there are dedicated and caring teachers who genuinely do their best for the children. If something did not happen, just say so. I am sure parents can accept an honest answer. What parents find it hard to accept is being repeatedly given an answer, that later turns out to be untrue.

PCF SPARKLETOTS PRESCHOOL @ TELOK BLANGAH BLK 44 (CC)

I am very pleased with the quality of care and education provided by this preschool at Blk 44 Telok.Blangah. The Centre is led by a very experienced Principal with a team of very passionate and dedicated teachers. The Centre creates a warm, caring, and supportive environment where every child feels safe and can thrive. My son looks forward to going to school every morning. The centre is always clean,well-maintained, and welcoming. My son has been with the centre since Playgroup and I have seen tremendous growth over the years. He has now become a much more confident boy with good communication skills especially in his Chinese Language. I also appreciate the holistic curriculum, which supports children’s learning in all areas of development. Centre values parent partnerships and actively involves parents in activities such as field trips, celebrations, and centre events. This creates a wonderful sense of community and strengthens the bond between families and the school. I highly recommend this preschool to parents who are looking for a nurturing and enriching environment for their children.

Character Montessori (Ang Mo Kio)

"We are happy with Character Montessori. The preschool provides a safe, caring, and engaging environment for the children. The teachers are caring and supportive, and our child enjoys going to school every day. The learning activities are fun and meaningful, and we have seen good progress in confidence and communication skills for our child”

Smart Berriis Preschool @ Choa Chu Kang

Since January 2026, under the leadership of the new principal, Mrs Lai, there has been a significant improvement in the operation of the centre. The frontage has been refreshed, with the parent bulletin board regularly updated and the wall mural freshly painted. There seems to be a renewed sense of energy throughout the entire childcare centre. Well done!

Teaches a child self-discipline and nurturing environment. A good attitude is halfway to success. So grateful!

PCF SPARKLETOTS PRESCHOOL @ FENGSHAN BLK 76 (CC)

My niece was there when she was young the teachers are superb thanks ?

PCF Sparkletots Preschool @ Tampines North Blk 483 (KN)

I am incredibly grateful for the wonderful team at this centre and would like to take a moment to recognise the amazing people who have made such a positive difference in my daughter’s schooling journey. First and foremost, I would like to commend my daughter’s form teacher, Ms. Dawn. As my child is still taking time to adjust to a new school environment, Ms. Dawn’s patience, kindness, and exceptional attention to detail have meant the world to us. She has an incredible ability to read her students — from their facial expressions to their emotions — and she steps in instinctively and thoughtfully to support them. What truly stands out is how she goes above and beyond for every child, not just my own, ensuring that each child feels included, safe, understood, and valued. Her genuine care for her students’ interests and individual needs is truly remarkable, and I am deeply grateful to her for creating such a warm, inclusive classroom where my little one can thrive. I would also like to express my heartfelt thanks to Ms. Rasoo, my daughter’s Tamil teacher. She is an extraordinary educator filled with so much warmth, love, and patience. My daughter does not speak Tamil at home, as it is not her second language, so adapting to Tamil lessons has taken time. Throughout this process, she has been met with nothing but kindness, reassurance, and encouragement. Ms. Rasoo’s understanding — and her belief that young children should not be stressed and should love learning — is truly admirable. The compassion she shows to a tired child who is genuinely trying her best to adapt to a new environment and learn a new language is deeply touching, and as a parent, I am truly very, very grateful. A big thank you as well to Ms. Hannah, the assistant teacher, for being so warm, nurturing, and kind. She steps in so quickly whenever my daughter needs help — from socks and shoes, to putting on her bag, to comforting her when she is sad, or offering extra support during Tamil class. The gentle care she shows, holding her belongings and showering her with love and reassurance, does not go unnoticed and is so very appreciated. I would also like to acknowledge the centre’s dear, lovely cook. It is clear that she takes immense pride in what she prepares, and that a lot of love and warmth goes into every meal. I have seen her interact with the children, genuinely asking them how the food was, celebrating when they enjoy it (which they always do!), and encouraging them to eat well. She has even taken the time to give me helpful tips on food I can prepare for my daughter at home. Her care and dedication are truly amazing. A special note of thanks goes to Ms. Haziqah, the administrator, who is an absolute ray of sunshine for both new and existing parents. She is always welcoming, smiling, kind, and incredibly helpful. She consistently takes initiative and goes the extra mile, making her a wonderful first point of contact and a true asset to the centre. She has helped me with so many matters, and I am deeply grateful for her support. Finally, I would like to thank Principal Janelle, who truly feels like the anchor of the school. She puts in tremendous effort to ensure the well-being of both students and teachers, and she leads with warmth, kindness, and approachability. She is always open to conversation and makes parents feel heard and welcomed. I am especially thankful for the opportunities she has created for parents to be involved through the Parent Support Programme, which reflects her inclusive and thoughtful leadership. I am incredibly thankful that my little one was given a place at this centre. It is a school filled with heart, compassion, and dedicated individuals who truly care about every child.

Peridot Schoolhouse @ Bedok Central

We are so happy to be a part of the Peridot Schoolhouse community – it truly feels like a special place for our children. Even though the school is newly taken over and there have been some staff changes, the transition has been incredibly smooth. Our 3-year-old daughter and 6-year-old son have both settled in beautifully. What really stands out is the school's commitment to involving parents. The glimpses we get into the classrooms are so insightful, and the parenting workshops have given us a deeper understanding of our own parenting journey. The teachers are fantastic at keeping us updated on the daily routines and activities, which really puts our hearts at ease. It's also been such a joy to see our 3-year-old daughter start singing and dancing along to Chinese songs – it really shows the teachers' creativity and dedication to making learning fun and engaging! Our son, who is older, has really enjoyed the challenges presented through the various activities, especially manipulating the Montessori materials. The Project approach in the curriculum has also sparked his curiosity, encouraging him to use his inquisitive mind to ask questions and explore. We've noticed this approach has really helped him develop his cognitive skills – he's learning how to problem-solve, think critically, and make connections between different concepts. We are so grateful for the proactive communication and the genuine care the teachers show for our children. We highly recommend Peridot Schoolhouse to any parents looking for a nurturing and engaging learning environment for their little ones!

FunLab Preschool @ Bukit Timah

Funlab has been amazing for my 4yo. The teachers are kind and attentive, and you can really feel how much they care. Our kid looks forward to school every day, and is always smiling at pickup - showing us what he's made for the day. We’re really grateful to have found this place.. fyi they even have a legit indoor playground!

MindChamps PreSchool @ Yishun

I found out from my child that the teachers and the auntie are sleeping while the children are awake. I think children are surely in need of supervision even during their naps. I also found out from my child that there have been instances where children have been left unattended. This lack of engagement and professionalism is actually unacceptable. This is definitely not a safe or supportive environment.

Picket Fence @ Macpherson (managed by Brainy Bee Junior Education Pte Ltd)

My child has been with Picket Fence since Playgroup, and over the years I’ve witnessed many changes in both the teaching team and the management. I truly appreciate how the current management has been working hard to create a supportive and effective learning environment. Under their leadership, my child’s development, especially in Mandarin has improved significantly compared to before. The teachers are patient, dedicated, and genuinely care about the children’s progress. Thank you to the school and the teachers for your effort and commitment. I’m grateful for the positive growth I see in my child and would highly recommend Picket Fence to other parents.

MY FIRST SKOOL @ 3 PASIR RIS DRIVE

Wonderful childcare centre! The teachers are caring and attentive, and my child loves going to school every day. Thank you for creating such a safe and nurturing environment!

LIttle Olive Tree (FMC Farrer Park)

Teachers are caring and environment is very child friendly with lots of interesting activities each day.

Little Olive Tree (Bukit Arang)

Quite a holistic curriculum. My child has grown very well socially and can learn quite a few spiritual thoughts during her time in the PG.

Little Olive Tree (Bukit Batok)

My child’s nursery school teachers Ms Alethea, He Laoshi and also not to forget staff like Mrs Lim, are one of the more dedicated teachers I have met. My child is very happy to go to school and talks abt his teachers in a positive light. That to me is a sign of a preschool teacher with a good heart and passion to nurture our little ones :) we all need that in this chaotic world. Thank you Little Olive Tree for your values and mission.

Little Olive Tree (Hougang)

We're very happy with Little Olive Tree! The teachers are attentive and caring, and they keep us well-informed with constant feedback about our child's progress. We especially appreciate the parent-child activities they arrange, which help us stay engaged in our child's learning. Their unique Chinese book series based on biblical stories is also a wonderful resource that sets them apart. Highly recommend this preschool for families seeking a nurturing and values-based environment!
