Frequently Asked Questions

Do playgroup providers in Bedok cover nearby East estates too?

Most providers listed for Bedok also serve the wider East zone. If you live between Bedok and a neighbouring estate, contact any provider via WhatsApp — they'll confirm coverage and travel fees, if any, before confirming the job.

Do all playgroups in Bedok need ECDA licensing?

ECDA licensing is required for programmes running 4+ hours with meal service. Shorter social playgroups (1-3 hours per session) often fall outside licensing requirements. Always ask for the licence number if the programme runs full-days — unlicensed operation at that scale is a safety risk.

How much does playgroup cost in Bedok?

Anchor operator 3-day/week: S\$450-650/month. Anchor 5-day/week: S\$650-900/month. Partner operator: S\$900-2,200/month. Premium Montessori/Reggio: S\$2,000-3,800/month. International curriculum: S\$2,500-4,200/month. Casual drop-in sessions S\$35-80 where available.

Is Montessori or Reggio Emilia better for Bedok toddlers?

Neither is objectively better — both are evidence-based methods with different emphasis. Montessori is self-directed with multi-sensory materials; Reggio is project-based and child-led inquiry. Your child's personality matters more than the method. Visit programmes and see which atmosphere suits your child. Method quality is teacher-dependent — certified teachers (AMI/AMS Montessori; recognised Reggio training) matter more than the label.

What's a reasonable playgroup class size?

8-10 toddlers with 2 teachers is good; 12-15 feels chaotic at this age. Mixed-age groups (18m-3y together) are valid pedagogy when staffed properly but risky with single teachers for 10+ mixed ages. Ask specifically about class sizes before enrolment.

Should I expect progression reports from a playgroup?

Yes — good playgroups produce monthly or termly observation reports covering social development, motor skills, language acquisition, and engagement patterns. Centres saying "just observe yourself anytime" without written documentation are skipping the structured observation parents pay for.
