About Brighton Montessori
Brighton Montessori is a Montessori-approach infant care provider located at HarbourFront Centre, accessible islandwide. The centre is KakiList-verified and ACRA-registered, and holds a Google rating of 4.9 out of 5 across 28 reviews — a moderate sample that suggests consistent parent satisfaction, though prospective families should weigh this alongside a personal visit. Fees are priced at the mid-range tier ($$) on a monthly recurring basis.
Families interested in a place should begin by enquiring about slot availability for their intended start month, as infant care vacancies — particularly for children under 18 months — are limited and tend to fill well in advance. When you contact Brighton Montessori, ask about the infant-to-caregiver ratio, the daily routine covering feeding, nap, and play schedules, and the settling-in period typically offered to new infants. It is also worth discussing ECDA subsidy eligibility at this stage, as Singapore citizen children may qualify for the Basic Subsidy and, where applicable, the Working Mother's Child Care Subsidy.
To take the next step, use the phone or enquiry form listed on this page to ask about current vacancy for your child's intended start month and to arrange a centre visit.
Visit the centre in person, meet the lead teacher, and read the parent contract before signing.

Brighton Montessori HarbourFront has been an amazing experience for my children. The teachers always greet the children warmly in the morning. Very patient and dedicated team of teachers. My children would often chat about their day in school and it's always positive. They have grown so much in confidence, independence and curiosity, thanks to the school's teaching philosophy. The teachers genuinely care and take the time to update us on our child’s progress, which gives us so much peace of mind. My children have been cared for and nurtured by all the teachers, especially Ms Mandy and Ms Alicia. I also deeply value and grateful for their patience. You couldn't ask for better teachers! Truly a gem of a preschool. Overall, we couldn't be happier with our choice. Seeing my children excited to go to school every morning speaks volumes about the wonderful work the team at Brighton Montessori HarbourFront is doing. Highly recommend it to any parent looking for a supportive and enriching preschool experience!
It was great that we had an opportunity to put our son here to prepare for his primary school. His two class teachers were very involved in his learning, posting to us constantly about his progress. The team were always very supportive of requests made and the environment was clearly very conducive for learning. Thanks to the amazing HarbourFront team.
My son's time at Brighton Montessori Harbourfront, spanning over two years, has been genuinely positive. He's nearly four, and we've been consistently impressed with the school's approach. He's developed well, both academically and socially, and has formed strong bonds with his teachers. He's expressed a real fondness for his time there, which speaks to the nurturing environment. We've found the teachers to be dedicated and attentive, and we appreciate their focus on individual growth. The principal and support staff have been consistently helpful and responsive. It's clear they care about the children and foster a strong sense of community. We're grateful for the solid foundation Brighton Montessori Harbourfront has provided for our son. We've been happy with his progress and would recommend the school to other parents looking for a thoughtful Montessori learning.
Our son requires some additional support due to his specific requirements. Following a parents consultation I was stunned at the care, consideration, patience and effort given to supporting his development within the Montessori setting. Huge thanks to Miss Sylvia and Laoshi for their consistent devotion. Absolutely incredible.

Brighton Montessori is listed at the mid-range price tier ($$) on a monthly recurring fee structure. Exact monthly fees are not published on this listing, so contact the centre directly for a current fee schedule. Beyond the monthly fee, families should ask about a one-time registration fee, a deposit (centres in Singapore typically request the equivalent of one to two months' fees), and any costs for uniform and personal accident insurance. Childcare and infant care fees in Singapore are GST-exempt, so the amount quoted should be the amount payable. Always confirm the full fee breakdown in writing before signing the enrolment contract.

Singapore citizen children enrolled in a licensed infant care centre may qualify for the Basic Subsidy of up to S$600 per month. Working mothers who are employed for at least 56 hours per month may additionally claim the Working Mother's Child Care Subsidy (WMS). For lower-income households, the Additional Subsidy provides further means-tested support, and the combined cap across Basic Subsidy and Additional Subsidy can reach up to S$710 per month — verify the current quantum directly with ECDA as figures are subject to revision. Permanent Resident children are eligible for partial subsidies at a lower rate. Non-citizen children generally do not qualify. To apply, the centre must hold an ECDA licence; confirm with Brighton Montessori that their licence is current before assuming subsidy eligibility. Note that subsidy amounts and eligibility criteria change periodically. Always check the ECDA website for the most current figures before making financial plans.
Infant care places in Singapore are among the most sought-after childcare vacancies, and popular centres are routinely booked out three to twelve months ahead of the intended start date. January is the peak intake month, so families targeting a start in that period should enquire especially early. To secure a place, most centres require payment of a registration fee and a deposit, which typically confirms the slot. Contact Brighton Montessori as early as possible — ideally when your child is between three and six months old — to ask about current availability for your preferred start month. If there is a waitlist, ask how it is managed and what the average waiting time has been recently.
