Hi soomum,


I would say ave fees range between 550 (half day) to 850 (fullday). Both my children attends montessori.

(u can see my comment on babyplanet montessori that i highly recommend if not too far for u....- for your little one)

Cheers n good luck!

do they (montessori for children) offer FULL DAY child care?

i intend to put my 2.5yrs old boy into one of the montessori at the east.. any recommendation for a good one?? i stay in pasir ris, wife work in bedok, me work in leng kee and MIL stay at bedok reservoir.. so prefer a east side one, easier for my wife to pick the children up after work.

thx for the help..

Hi all mommies, anyone with their precious little darlings currently enrolled in the classes at CS Montessori (Tiong Bahru Plaza)? Can you please share with me how's the classes like as I'm considering sending my son there next year. Thank you! [/b]

Hi,

My son is currently studying there. Not too bad a place. At least their teaching is very personalised according to the child's learning ability. The class size is also small so the teacher has more attention to the students. :roll:

Hello Nottiepig,

Your child is in playgroup or workgroup now?

hi little Cheng mummy,


I’ve tried reply you via pm but couldn’t.

My boy is now 4 years old and he started with CS 1 year 2 months ago. He attends the daily classes from Mon-Fri and is now in Workgroup.

So far he likes the classes and he is learning his a-z basic phonics. For maths, he is learning his adidtions.

I'm new here & really need help as I've just moved house to tampines. I've a son 5 1/2 yrs old and need to go on full day care. Anyone knows if there's any MMI in tampines / simei area? I need those that offers full day.

There's one MMI at Tampines Mart, but i do not think the centre offers
childcare services.

Centre is on at a good pace, vfong1.

Hi, really appreciate all the replies & inputs


I visited the centre on Tuesday and really have a good impression of the place and the lady (Yvonne) patiently explained to me the program details.
However, I still do have doubts in what my son could learn in that short 1.5 hrs/week session. Maybe I'll just get a Montessori book and have these activities with him at home?? However, I'll definitely be enrolling him in Kindermusik next year :lol:

Hi all.


I'm new to this forum as well as the world of local child care.

We like the Montessori approach and are thinking of sending our boy to a Montessori playgroup in AMK/Thomson area.

Does anyone have any comments or personal experience with Greentree and Character Montessori (AMK)? Especially the latter, someone has asked earlier and there has been no response so far.

Buds,
Your contributions on the Montessori approach. How nice of you to spend time and effort informing others. Kudos to you!
