Hi all dear TP Moms,
Sorry for MIA for very long as its not easy to write at work after starting a new job in Sep and sometimes really regret studying finance and end up working in finance sector. Every now and then must worry about job security and not conducive for family.
Ivy, Janice and Dor
Thanks very very much to you girls for sincerely sharing all the tips about preparation for childcare. They have helped me a lot. I have been putting them into practice as much as possible. The self feed part is still not perfect but can see some improvement. Holding bottle is not successful as my gal hates milk and has to be persuaded to drink. Pooing wise sometimes successful sometimes not..She is confirmed for N1 at 27 months for PCF East at Blk 232. She was on waiting list for the toddler group (18 months and above) with no success and the principal advised the best is be confirmed for N1 at least.
Ivy,
You are the first producer I know of
heeeeeee..Ur work sounds very interesting. Share more on the content that you produce if got time? Heeeee…I am thinking of understanding the other interesting occupations outside of finance so that I can exposure Mel (my daughter’s name) to them. Finance is probably the last industry I would expose her to.
TP mommies..
Just to share my recent experience on childcare decision. Due to the proximity with my mom (at blk 234), the most convenient decision is to send Mel to Blk 232 PCF. Nevertheless, there has been social pressure to send children to branded preschools (such as Pat school and such). Sometimes I get feedback from friends that sending her to a government school like PCF will put her at risk of losing out, that government schools loses out in all aspects. But my personal 2 cents worth is to give her a more innocent childhood and that the type of preschool one goes to cannot scar a child’s life. Besides, the proximity will benefit my mom who also needs to have more rest at her age. While of course its good to be smart but health and just plain happiness is even more important. Sometimes, cannot help but to think that being down to earth and simple is nicer than being shrewd and complex. Maybe its because I was born as a heart lander of the heartlander – Tpian
Hence, I am so glad to have finally confirmed a place in PCF East..Not sure if you guys get such social pressure too..
Are,
Thanks for sharing the new makan place…looks great..the fare…have you tried food at WAVE..? Some of it is quite good, at least never expect a pub like place to serve nice food. That stretch of TP has become quite interesting..also people eating steamboat there..
Dor,
you are right about the need to be vigilant. I very KS when it comes to that aspect. Do u still remember in the 80s, TP Lor 7 got Adrian Lim case. That time my mom also did not let me anyhow go out. And there was also the very heartwrecking case about 2 students from Bowen is still missing up to today..I still feel very sorry for their parents..forever heartache and no closure..
