Tracy,

Sunny,
hmmm, I think different Cherie Hearts got different good and bad things to loo out for. Like in the Jln Layang one, it was only a single storey house with two groups, but the nice thing about it was they had a veggie garden and it was quite spacious for so few kids. AT Jln Dermawan, the place was bustling and very active, and very clean, but there were easily 40+ kids there, so though it was a two storey corner Terrace, it seemed very cramped.
the good thing about Cherie Hearts I feel is their cirrculumn seems very comprehensive, they keep pets in the CC and teach the kids how to take care of them, and they often have school excursions, which most CC do have lah...
I guess you can also tell from looknig at the kids, most of them seem happy.
HOnestly, so far the most responsive kids I have seen is at MMI. Whenever we enter into a new classrooms, there will definitely be kids who will approach us, and say Hello, and naturally curious and friendly, so I was quite impressed by that. Just too bad MMI is a little far for us...
