Maybe we met at these 2 places before. My boy refuse to walk so alway have to carry him all the way to Yew Tee NTUC, if bring him further I think my whole body will ache for days.
If u see a boy sit on the pedestrian path below the MRT track toward Yew Tee MRT station and his mum is trying to make him walk, that mum is definitely ME.
Ya, maybe we met b4, ur boy still wan u 2 carry, my gal like wild cat, refuse 2 be carry, keep running around with my son. That y v tiring bring them go further.
Hi YewTeeMum,
Ur gal is abt the same age as my son, dunno y nowsaday kids really can make ppl wan 2 vomit blood, sometimes can feel my heart beating fast, like going heart attack.
Hi everyone,
have mummies go to yew tee point yet? Its so crowded! But lots of place to eat yah! spoilt for choice. Do you allow your kids to eat fast food at this young age? My 15months DS loves fries(Mac) and mash potato(KFC). Felt bad everytime we go to fast food to eat. But its so convenient! Haha.
Hi Shijun,
Not so sure how much is edufarm fees but I heard it is reasonable.
I just called "tulip montessori" near Yew Tee MRT, and I almost vomit blood when I aske about the fees.
Fees are for a term (10 weeks):-
2x a week is $550,
3X a week is $700,
4X a week is $800 and
5X a week is $900.
Anyone has any feedback on Tulip montessori? Is it really worth the price?
Anyone has any other recommendation for daily playgroup?
Just called "sparks Playgroup" @ Blk 668 CCK cresent. Ask about their new programme PLAYGROUP PROGRAMMES FOR 18-MONTH-OLD CHILDREN. It's a 1 hour class.
my child just started his playgroup at Ichiban Montessori at blk 704. think rite now they have 7 students from 2007 and alr formed a class mainly for them. A clean and tidy place. check it out. 2hrs - $200 mon - fri 9am to 11am.
Hi Huimin and honeybee,
how's the playgroup at ichiban so far?
Maybe will sign my baby there. Tot of putting him at tulip montessori but price is too high!
Can you pass me th enumber to call for ichiban montessori?
Hi Huimin, thanks for the number. I called the centre and will go down soon to take a look at the centre.
The problem is no straight bus from my house. Have to change bus from 302 to 307 at yew tee mrt.
Honeybee, My baby is Jan 2008 baby. If I join , I'll be joining in June too when he is 18 months old. Prob see you there.
hi Lynn_baby,
I dun know if we have had any gahering yet. Mummies are all too busy lah..hehe
I'm in for any gathering. Mummies here have any sugesstion where to go?
Wanna try any trial? My gym, kindermusik, etc ect~
Hi Hani,
I opt for school bus because I stay at CCK crescent. That's also why I opt for 2 weeks trial, I am worry whether she will be ok with the school bus.
BTW, now they have free 3 months transport, registration fee waived and free a pair of uniform.
See you in June if you signed her up.
Honeybeel,
I'm staying at cck cresent too. We could be neighbours?!
Thanks for informing me abt the school bus. Then it's more convenient. Will sign up for teh trial too then.
sigh i wan to share my feeling now, i feel very stress with my son. earlier I ask my maid to look after my son until my maid decided to retire early since no one can take care him i enroll him to childcare and I think it is time for him to learn also. aiyo the headache come now
I just put him into childcare 2 week, he got flu and cough from his friend (his friend is having flu & cough also)and then he have not yet cure the flu and cough now he got stomach ache due to stomach wind according to the doctor due to my son is not eat full enough lately( my son is 22 kg although only 2 years thanks to my maid always take good care him but unfortunately my maid wan to retire early to go back to her hometown) btw any mommies here exp like me who kid still can not adapt with new environment?
is it norm for kids who first time with childcare? it seems a lot trouble liao I am working mother and also pay seh to my boss if I always taking leave sigh, last week I took 2 days leave coz my son has serious flu and cough, now sick again.
Hi bagsroom
It is normal that the kids fell sick in the initial stage when they join the school. after some time they will build up their immune system n wont fell sick easily. it just the matter of time when this process will begins.
FOr eg. my gals go infant care when she is baby initial stage she also fell sick bt not so frequent after a certain period her immune system build up n she dun fell sick easily.
Cheer up it is a very common process...
Hi Mummies,
I've registered my Son for the following classes by EDUFARM. Location is at Blk 685C Choa Chu Kang Crescent. 1/week class for 1 hour for each class.
Hi Glee, I dun mind at Blk 691A. I can be the forth one and then only need one more to form a class.
Gold..Piggy, Not sure if its good. So far cannot find any review on the web. But I guess we can try for 1 term cos it is not that expensive if compared to other enrichment centre.
goldpiggy,
i m not sure too, i believe its neighbourhood style.. and the rates are quite low
hani,
sorri its 690A
i signed up for Star Tots Music and Phonics Class C at 690A, the enrolment officer told me there are 3 students in waiting for both classes.
huimin,
It reali depends whether both classes are available, as they need 5 students to start a class. i'm flexible, can start one class first while waiting for the other class to form up.. i m fine with either music or phonics or both.. but not so keen on gym class
Hi,
Just called Mr Enthony,
He said I'm one of the 3 mummies who is on the waiting list. So need 2 more only.
He said the class will not be conducted at 690A anymore. It is either at 668 RC or Blk 685C?
So huimin, if you interested can just give hime a call.
I actually prefer weekdays classes because weekend should be time for out door activities. Anyway, I have leave my name with Enthony. See what time most parents able to make-it.
