Hi all,
Pls don't go to YCK Chapel kindergarten. Their principal is very rude, now I am thinking of transferring my daughter out cos I can't stand the attitude of the principal. I went to fetch my daughter home today, I was looking for her and guess what she said to me, "What do you want?" I was shocked and didn't react in time or else I would hv told her off I am fetching my daughter home of course, and question her attitude. I am so pissed off. Unless you hv a car and you fetch yr kids, she will be more than willing to help you. She gou yan kan ren di! Double standards! |

Hi April,
The YCK chapel kindergarten's curriculum is not bad but I am not pleased with the principle attitude. For Dayspring kindergarten, I hv read a few positive comments in other forums when I was searching for kindergarten. You can search in kiasu parents or other parenting forum. You can't get much feedback from here, I am speaking from my personal experience. |

Sparkletots at Fernvale Vista only caters to children from age 2 mths to 36 mths only. I was thinking of enrolling my boy 4 this yr to their half day childcare. Ai, so sad. |

Ping2, really?? Only until 3 years old? Meaning stop at N1? *scratch head* Or meaning from N1 onwards, they don't have childcare but normal kindergarten hours? |

Butterwaffles,
I hv emailed them abt the enrollment for my 4 yr old son for half day child care, and that's the reply they gave me. They recommend me to go to Rivervale drive blk 194 branch instead. If you don't believe me, you can email them at the email address which April posted on December 8th, 10.07am.
Sparkletots is a childcare ctr, not a preschool or kindergarten. I wanted to enrol my son for the nursery class at PCF but their classes are full. |

ping, hey thanks for the info! Yes, i know what Sparkletots is and im looking for a childcare centre for my boy. He's now at PCF sparkletots infantcare I'll call them to enquire again because the last thing i want, is to change centre halfway lor. So how, have you managed to get your boy into any centres? I called the ones near buangkok and compass point but both are full. |

butterwaffles,
Thanks for yr info. I didn't manage to enrol my boy into any ctrs. I wanted to enrol him to nursery class at PCF which is near my place for some exposure to class environment. Enrolling him to a child care ctr is my last resort as I am a SAHM. As my elder gal is in YCK chapel kindergarten which is quite far from here, I will hv to teach him for the time being first. I am still monitoring YCK chapel kindergarten to see whether my gal is able to learn anything. So far so good for the time being.
I saw their nursery class seems to be quite gd, but I still want to monitor my gal's progress and the school first. |

ping, no wonder....i'm a FTWM so i die die have to find a childcare centre for my boy. Frankly, i feel there isn't many choices for childcare or playgroups around Sengkang/Punggol. If exposure is what you are looking at, i agree that PCF is good enough. Since your boy is 4, he should be in N2? Did you try your luck at this PCF kindergarten at blk 303A Anchorvale Link? Next to Renjong LRT station? My parents stay at blk 303B heh. How do you fetch your gal to YCK chapel?? |

butterwaffles,
There is another childcare ctr. This is the details:
Young Talents
Blk 439 Sengkang West Ave #01-01
Tel: 97964986 / 96776076
www.youngtalents.com.sg
I know you are a FTWM, otherwise you would not be so concerned over childcare ctrs. The above info was shared by mummy daish. She put her younger son there for half day. I fetch my gal by public transport or taxi (if it rains). I tried the school bus service, but it was so tiring for my gal as it takes 1 hr for her to reach school. It adds up to 2 hours to and fro, and she fell sick during the first wk. It only takes abt 15-20 min when I bring her to school, and she prefers me to bring her to school.
PCF Anchorvale is too far for me and I can't travel to and fro from there, as I am already fetching my gal from school by public transport. I can't handle fetching my kids from schools that require travelling by bus, esp from 2 different schools alone. |

ping, that one i call liao, loooong waiting list! I want to faint already. This lady from My First Skool called me and she told me to her knowledge, for this year, it's full everywhere and she advised me to try further, like Hougang or Serangoon (!!!!). Maybe also because my boy is only turning 1 next month. But i have to be quick leh, else how right? 2 centres ask me to call back only when my boy turns 18 months *scratch head* I can't be doing that what....I'm calling another 1 later, at Buangkok Crescent. I also take public transport so the location is very important to me, must be direct enough from my parents' place & from my workplace. For now, my boy is in infantcare and it's a 15min walk. When it rains, jialat sia but overall managable. Must be tough on you, i've always admired SAHMs, really not easy leh, 24/7 job. Frankly, i think from Fernvale to YCK not far leh, the schoolbus has to detour here & there to pick up many students is it? I budget constraint so i really shortlist until i cannot shortlist anymore. |

oh sparkle tots at Blk 441B oni up to 36 months! the details they email seem to up to 6 yrs old. is really a headache to find a pre sch for our lil ones! I m a FTWM, now my mum help me to take care of my 17mths old baby now. tot of putting him for half day in child care ctr when he turn 18mths old till 6 years old or wait till next yr put him in those kindergarten.
my elder boy attend the ikids preschooler @ saraca road back then when he was 2yrs in 2004, is a franchise of Cambridge child care ctr. not convenient if there is no car, some walking from main road take abt 10mins. |

Yup, so far my 2yo boy likes Young Talent. I find they are more organise. The teacher there seems more caring. But if got better school, I will still go for it. He now recog and can say ABC, 123, very well.
My elder boy used to be at Smartie Cottage. Upon graduate he still cannot read simple chinese words. Now has to catch up in P1.
I choose the above school bcos of location as its near my block.
So it is really important to find a good school with good teachers and curriculum. |

april, ya misleading right? I mean, i find it weird really. So parents who put their kids at 441B has to find another school before they turn 3? *scratch head* That's the last thing i want unless he is not progressing well ah. Walking is fine but it's a nightmare if it rains ^^
daish, good or not, have to try then we know right...my boy is now in infantcare and i feel curriculum is nothing unless the teachers can deliver. The teachers are so important really but they come & go, so it's a headache as well. So you really think your younger boy learns faster because Yong Talent has better teachers compared to Smartie Cottage? Actually, i've heard not-so-good feedback about Smartie Cottage as well so i didn't call to ask about vacancies. Young Talent is not cheap right...
sugarplum, what kind of enrichment programmes are you looking at? |

Have been to a few centres and none are very satisfactory. Any mummies here who will be going ahead to put your child in the fernvale PCF even thou they only cater up to N1? I wonder if there will be N2-K2 in the near future....Sigh~ My husband says he feels the centre should be opening up N2-K2 classes if there is demand...he wants to go ahead with the fernvale centre if there is vacancy. What do you mummies think? |

butterwaffles: i had emailed them before to ask about the possibility of opening up N2-K2 classes if there are demand but the reply i got is "due to space constraint, they are only able to cater up to N1".
For eg: if i enrol my boy who just turn 3, he will have to withdraw at the end of this yr. (this is from the email reply i gotten from the centre.) |

apple, not sure about 436 as its a kindergarten right? You can try surfing kiasuparents.com, i think it will have more info there
gigi, wow...meaning unless they have an extension, i can stop hoping they will open up classes for N2-K2. Actually, right below my parents' place (anchorvale), there is also a PCF but it's kindergarten. My dad told me they extended so they have alot more students now. Sigh. My husband is not keen on others as he finds them too expensive (in case have #2) and he's happy with the PCF infantcare that my boy is going to now BUT BUT BUT...we are shifting liao, so we cannot let my boy continue at the jurong PCF centre. So what's your plan? I do know there is infantcare for this 441B centre thou. Mummies who really need ifc, can consider this centre... |

Maybe can ask them to let us know again if there's any extension for N2-K2 classes. Don't think i wanna switch my boi here and there.
Hopefully there will be another centre opening soon admist the new blocks that are now buliding. |

Morning Fernvale Mummies,
Sparkletots @ Fernvale staff call me yesterday, there will be no open house, as there is long list, they will do a close door registration.
I did feedback to her never heard that a child care center oni accept kids below 4 years old.
glad to hear from her that the ctr mgr spoke to the MP. Decision had yet to finalize, they may do a extenstion to nearby void deck for N2-K2. and this need time may take a year or so.
I think i shd feedback to the MP too. |

They called me too but end up i gave up because they cannot hold a place for my boy. My boy turns 18 months in August but they cannot hold that long, ask me to call back in June or July. They can only accept 16 toddlers at the moment so only those who are confirmed 18 months and above by March/April, they will accept. The centre will open next month...The lady also mentioned that nearby got this PCF K+ centre and they cater for kids aged 4 and above so they will see how...that if the K+ centre not opening up more classes for N2 and above, then they will try their best to open up their own. |

Dear mummies, i've managed to secure a place for my boy at Cambridge. I think as at now, the principal is still able to take 1 more toddler. The fees are very exp thou, $550 after the $300 govt subsidy but no choice, i cannot afford to wait for centres to call me, die die must secure a place for him as i have no-one else to help look after my boy. Mummies who decide to go for the PCF at Fernvale, do update here! |

april, that's great! Fingers crossed for you...the lady told me they will try their best and it takes around 6 months to construct a new place should they decide to extend...actually, i would have gone for it if not for the fact that they cannot hold a place for my boy until August. Hence my decision to enrol him at Cambridge. Couldn't take the stress of not knowing whether he'll have a place in a centre by August or not ^^ |

april, no wor, my boy will be going to the Cambridge near Rivervale Mall...very near to this Character Montessori. Saraca road very hard for me to do fetching...i visited Sunflower @Hougang Mall, Kidz Meadows @Buangkok and Cambridge @Rivervale Mall, i feel that Cambridge is more suitable for my boy. Great that your boy can attend the PCF there, now my boy at PCF infantcare and he's doing very well So am quite happy with PCF in general, keke. Lucky u!! |

Dear mummies, Carpe Diem called, they have vacancies for toddlers now. Any mummies who are interested, you might wish to call the centre. Carpe Diem is at Punggol, right at the very end. Bus transport 2-way (Sengkang) is $112. School fees after subsidy is $395. I've rejected the offer as i've registered with Cambridge already |

Hi Pkmum, yes they have weekend class. I just sign up 2 terms for Sunday 9am. It's 70min class.
You can call them and they should be able to explain to you what they teach. Theirs a bilingual class. 1week Eng n 1week Chinese. Which is good. My boy also 2.5 yo born in Feb 09.
Say u refer by me n you will get 5% off the term fee of 12 weeks. |

Hi everafter_03,
My gal is going to Primary school next year. I intend to enrol her in Fernvale Primary school, as it's very near to my place.
You can check out the school's website, http://fernvalepri.sg/. One mummy shared that the school is not bad, which is abt 1 yr ago in this thread. |

To all Fernvale Mummies,
Beware of the aunty in the hardware shop at Fernvale Point. She is a very dishonest lady. I gave her $10 for a $2.50 kids' hangers, she gave me $2.50 change. I told her I gave her a $10 note, then she gave me another $5. If she really made a mistake, she would hv apologized but she just quietly gave me $5. Seems like she is trying her luck, if the customer don't remember n just take the change, she would hv pocketed $5. I also read a lot of negative feedback(very rude) on her in another forum by chance, so I am very wary of her.
Be alert, cos I encountered a taxi driver using e same tactics last yr. He told me I didn't give him $10 which I did, I was tired n confused so I gave him another $10. After a while, I realized I did give him $10. I became more careful & alert after that incident. |

Hi,
Would any one of you be keen to host a complimentary skin care class at the comfort of your own home at a timing that is convenient for you? (you can be the hostess & invite a couple of your friends over to pamper yourselves)
You will learn the right ways to cleanse your face and get to try out great products, all hands-on.
Best is with no obligations and most importantly no hardselling
Please feel free to email me (michileigh@gmail.com) or PM me for more details.

Hi cinnamon23,
I just put him on the potty to pee. Initially, I put him on the potty every half to one hr. After I know his peeing pattern, it becomes easier. I told him to tell me when he wants to pee, gradually he goes to the potty himself. He was reluctant to poo in the potty, but I do not let him hv his way and he poo in the potty eventually. Toilet training involves disciplining too, I don't know how you discipline yr son but I am very strict with my kids. How old is yr son? Best age to toilet train is 1.5 to 2 yrs old. |

Fruity.Moose,
U hv to set a timing for him to pee, like every half to 1 hr. Once you know his peeing pattern, it'll be easier to put him on the potty. If he is still taken care by his nanny, you can check with nanny on his timing to pee. Do ask him if he wants to pee, if he is able to express himself, it'll be easier for you. |
