Chicky & Olive is priced in the mid-range ($$) bracket for Singapore playgroup services, indicating a monthly recurring fee structure. Beyond the monthly programme fee, you should confirm whether a one-time registration fee applies, the deposit required to secure a place (typically equivalent to one to two months' fees), and any additional costs for uniforms or group insurance. Childcare and playgroup fees in Singapore are generally GST-exempt, so the quoted monthly fee is typically the amount you pay. That said, it is always worth asking for a full written fee schedule before signing any enrolment agreement. See the full childcare cost guide for Singapore →
Government subsidies for centre-based childcare in Singapore are administered by ECDA and apply to Singapore citizen children enrolled in licensed childcare programmes. The Basic Subsidy provides up to S$600 per month for infant care and up to S$300 per month for childcare. Working mothers who work 56 or more hours per month may qualify for the Additional Working Mother's Child Care Subsidy on top of this. An Additional Subsidy of up to S$710 per month (combined with other subsidies) is available for lower-income households on an income-tested basis. Eligibility for these subsidies depends on the programme being licensed by ECDA. As no ECDA licence is currently recorded for Chicky & Olive on this listing, you should confirm directly with the provider whether their playgroup qualifies for subsidy schemes. Singapore Permanent Residents may receive partial subsidies. Subsidy amounts are subject to change — refer to the ECDA website for current figures.
Demand for quality playgroup and infant care places in Singapore means popular centres can fill up quickly, particularly for January intake, which is the busiest enrolment period of the year. For infant care, families are often advised to enquire six to twelve months ahead of their intended start date. For playgroup programmes, three to six months' lead time is a reasonable starting point, though availability varies by centre. To secure a place at Chicky & Olive, you will typically need to pay a registration fee and deposit once a slot is offered. Contact the centre directly via phone or the enquiry form to ask about current availability for your child's intended start month, as waitlist status can change frequently.
