Anyone with experience putting their kids at Learning Vision? I'm looking more at the toddler class.
Went to their open house last Saturday, the one at Arthur Road. Looks ok to me, and the feel at the centre is rather comfortable, not too cold (like concretet) and a large field for play.
There are also so many LV, and all at different fess too. The fees can range from $490 to to $750! Why such variations in fees when they are all LV centres?

Hi mummies, have anyone visited "Kids Space Educare" before? It's at Pasir Panjang Road. Considering to put my baby in infant care centre next year.

I'm more of agreeing putting infants in the care of a baby sitter/nanny not in infant care centers.... Heard of their ratio is 1:3! And babies have not finished their jabs yet... very vunerable to diseases....

Hi Puppygal,
My son, now 3, is in Just Kids (Bukit Batok). He's been with them since he was 4 months old. We like the place.
they have a new branch now at Jurong East. You can check out their website www.justkids.com.sg. Or just call the Bt Batok branch at 65690159. Ask for Mrs Eileen Hee or speak to Mrs Lurvin Yuen. Both are very nice

Hi,
Any feedback on infant care at Learning Vision @ Republic Poly?
To put a 3 mth old baby at infant care, is it safe? I mean, their backs and bodies are still quite soft at that age, right?
And what if you plan to BF? Will the infant care centre allow you to put ur EBM with them to feed bb? Will they end up getting it mixed up?

Not sure abt LV...
but generally, the caregivers at IFCs (infant care centres) are trained... although the difference would be if they genuinely love to care for your child.
for the EBM, you can check with them... most would provide a fridge... and you shd always label your bottles with name, date and time of collection.

Hi Faith,
I personally prefer infant care. They have experience and qualified care givers. They have activities that simulate the kids which you can't find with nannies. There's always pros and cons, so you have to decide. You can't win them all. My girl was put in an infant care. No regrets though she fell sick often initially. She learns alot more than someone who is cared for by nannies.

Hi Faith,
I agreed w Jackie too! I prefer infant care also. Although the attention is not 100% but baby will be more independent & socialable. My son was put in infant care when he is 2months old. can see that he is more independent and like to mix ard. of cos there is pros and cons, nanny attention is 100% but nanny don speak english to them. At least, infant care teachers will speak to them in english and babies can learn faster.

Hi,
Has anyone placed their infants in "Learning Kidz Child Development Centre" @ Serangoon Central or "Joewe Pre-school & Infant Centre" @ Serangoon North? Any comments? I am considering placing my 3 months old baby in either one of these.

Hi all,
Jus wondering is there any diff bet cheaper infantcare n expensive ones, I know if in town will be ex but for child's development and center's curriculum is it ex ones better? Or actually there's no diff coz they r still young..

Hi littleorbit
i would hesitate to equate quality with costs, more expensive does not mean better. In some cases, some of the money you pay goes to the franchise fee and rental, and other overheads that do not necessary relate directly to the quality of care.
For the curriculum, there are some that have programmes to engage the children, the stimulation helps.
But more important, i guess would be the hygiene, the environment and caregivers... it would be useless if the centre is branded, has great sounding programmes, but the caregivers are careless with the baby.

hi brink,
yup! its Faith Educare. Reccommended by 1 of my neighbours. i went down a couple of times & didn't see much babies there. Anyway, have talk to them & they sounded nice. The child care & infant care is separated so they wouldn't be disturb.
my ger will only be starting this nov 08, maybe den i will provide u wif more feedbacks!!!
u oso staying around the area?

Hi Andrey,
Yap, I am also staying around these area. Have spoken to the supervisor and went down once to see the place. Cosy and nice and new. But heard from the supervisor may need to be on waiting list as they are full for next year. So sad. If I can place my infant there it will be the perfect location.
I understand from the supervisor that registration started in sept? was not aware of it until this month when I started to explore the place.Sigh.
By the way, can I check how much it cost to place your infant there? Have you visited any other infant care before you decide on faith?
I went to a few around sengkang area and my ranking for the infant care is as follows:
Faith, NTUC childcare-quite far, junior house at block 266.
