Testimonials from Parents


Yio Chu Kang Preschool and Childcare Centre
After viewing many preschools and childcare centres, we are glad we found a conducive environment at Raffles Kidz for our son to learn and be nurtured in a bilingual environment. The teachers are professional and displayed great teamwork in taking care of the children. We love that they always communicate with us parents promptly and appreciate the updates. Glad to have a peace of mind at work knowing that our son is in good hands.
Jurong West (Yuan Ching) Preschool and Childcare Centre
Raffles Kidz is everything more than a parent can ask. There was never a tear shed during morning drop-offs, and she looks forward to going to school every day! Her eyes sparkle whenever she sees her friends and teachers. Knowing that my daughter is in good hands assures us, as first-time parents, to be focused at work. There has never been a day that I had to worry about her well-being in school! Raffles Kidz has played a major part in nurturing her early years, and we couldn’t ask for anything more. Thank you for being the best preschool and childcare centre!
Yishun Preschool and Childcare Centre
I enrolled my girl in Raffles Kidz childcare centre when she was 18 months old for their playgroup programme. The teachers are responsible, always patient in answering questions and open to suggestions. They are proactive and prompt in informing us about the well-being of my girl. We are also impressed by the amount of effort that the preschool put into preparing all the teaching materials. Parents are informed of the learning progress via the monthly bilingual bulletin. Thumbs up for the hygiene and infection control as well. Overall, with no regrets, I highly recommend Raffles Kidz as my preferred childcare centre!
Went to view a few preschools but after touring Raffles Kidz, we immediately felt that it was the right preschool for my son. Since my son began his preschool journey at Raffles Kidz, we have observed that he is always smiling and laughing when we fetch him from school. Love how he has become more sociable and responsible. The preschool’s environment is very homely yet systematic. The teachers and principal are very open to communication. Impressed with their level of dedication and caring attitude towards the kids. It’s definitely more than just a childcare centre!
Punggol Preschool and Childcare Centre
My daughter has been in Raffles Kidz for more than a year since her pre-nursery days. Step by step, I have seen her progress to become more independent and practise the things that she learnt in school. The teachers have been very patient and nurturing. Raffles Kidz is a great preschool and childcare centre to send your child for a holistic and balanced bilingual education, placed on right values, imparted by loving teachers.
And Mo Kio Preschool and Childcare Centre
We were worried that he would have difficulties interacting with others at school and achieve developmental milestones. But under the care of his preschool teachers, within a few months, he has surprised me with many things that he is capable of doing and we would say that he has progressed well. I am grateful that my boy gets to attend a preschool with such outstanding and passionate teachers. At Raffles Kidz, I am assured that my boy is in good hands.
Bukit Panjang Preschool and Childcare Centre
Kaeden was not able to talk when he started attending preschool, and looking at his progress now at Kindergarten 2, we can only thank Raffles Kidz and the teachers. Kaeden looks forward to school everyday and frequently mentions good things about all the teachers, even those who are not teaching his class. He has become a confident bilingual speaker and it’s all thanks to his teachers and environment. I am very extremely grateful and will definitely recommend my friends.
As a working first time mom, I had a hard time overcoming the separation anxiety with my son. During the first 2 weeks of school, teachers constantly updated on his progress, giving us a peace of mind at work. My child adapted very well and we can tell that he is happy to be in school. He always smile when he sees his teachers. We are glad we chose Raffles Kidz to be his preschool and childcare centre. Highly recommend!
My girl of 20 months started playgroup for only 1.5 months, and she already loves attending preschool. Teachers are caring and manage to adjust her to the new environment within a week. I see lots of improvement in her. She can talk so much better, sing many songs now, and even speaks Mandarin more frequently. We are glad we chose Raffles Kidz and will recommend this preschool to our family and friends.
Jurong West (Surbana Jurong Campus) Preschool and Childcare Centre
Being working parents, we have limited time with our kids and a good childcare is what we seek so that their time will be occupied meaningfully with joy and love. Raffles Kidz is really the right preschool for them. They go beyond classroom teaching, triggering the little minds to learn through fun and interactive methods. My girl totally enjoyed school every day with her friends. Her Chinese improved tremendously and I’m glad we chose Raffles Kidz for its bilingual curriculum.

FAQs About Our Bilingual Preschool in Singapore


When should my child start preschool?

The best time for your child to start preschool is when they display signs of independence, a developing interest in forming friendships with peers, and a keenness for engaging in structured and engaging activities. At Raffles Kidz, we offer preschool programmes for children aged 18 months to 6 years old. Find aRaffles Kidz preschool near you today! Here are o ur child care centre locations:

Can foreigners attend preschool at Raffles Kidz International?

Certainly! While Raffles Kidz International is a local preschool, approximately 10% of our students are foreigners. If you are a foreigner relocating to Singapore, we will initiate the process with the Immigration and Checkpoint Authority of Singapore for the Student Pass application if required. Thereafter, a Registration Acknowledgement Letter will be emailed to the applicant for online application.
Offering the best of both worlds, Raffles Kidz not only provides a stimulating environment with the best care but also a bilingual Montessori/Inquiry-based curriculum to build a strong academic foundation in our children, ensuring a seamless transition into primary school in Singapore.

Is preschool compulsory in Singapore?

Preschool is not compulsory in Singapore. However, it is widely recognized as an essential stage in a child’s educational journey. Our preschool programmes, such as playgroup, nursery, and kindergarten, play a crucial role in preparing children for a seamless transition to primary school as they equip children with the necessary skills and confidence to excel academically and in other areas.

Are private preschools better?

Private preschools often provide smaller class sizes, more personalised attention, and enhanced facilities compared to public options.
What truly sets a private preschool in Singapore apart is its enhanced and extensive curriculum. Unlike most government preschools, where the focus is primarily on foundational academics, private preschools like Raffles Kidz offer a bilingual, inquiry-based, and Montessori-inspired curriculum that integrates enrichment modules into daily learning. This approach ensures that children are not only academically prepared but also confident, curious, and creative learners ready for primary school and beyond.
However, the “better” choice depends on what works best for your child’s learning style, family needs, and budget.

Is preschool the same as a nursery?

Not exactly. In Singapore, preschool is a broad term that covers playgroup, nursery, and kindergarten programmes for children aged 18 months to 6 years old. Nursery refers specifically to the stage where children (typically aged 3–4) build literacy, numeracy, and social skills in a structured yet playful environment.

How to choose a preschool in Singapore?

When deciding on a preschool in Singapore, parents should consider curriculum, teaching approach, class size, teacher experience, facilities, location, and fees. Visiting the school, speaking with educators, and observing the environment can give valuable insights. Ultimately, the right preschool should provide a safe, nurturing, and engaging setting where your child can grow confidently.
