Families considering ELFA Preschool for infant care should begin by enquiring about slot availability for their intended start month, as demand at this level tends to be high. When you make contact — via phone or the enquiry form — ask about the infant-to-caregiver ratio, the daily routine, and the settling-in period policy. It is also worth confirming whether the centre participates in ECDA subsidy schemes, which can meaningfully reduce out-of-pocket costs for Singapore citizen children. A centre visit before committing is strongly recommended so you can assess the physical environment and meet the caregiving team.
To take the first step, reach out to ELFA Preschool by phone or through the enquiry form listed on this page to ask about current vacancy for your preferred start month and to arrange a visit to the Hougang centre.

We’ve had such a wonderful experience with this preschool. The teachers are warm, nurturing, and genuinely care about the children’s wellbeing. My child has grown so much in confidence and independence, and always comes home excited to share what they did in school. We truly feel supported as partners in our child’s development. Highly recommend this preschool to any parent looking for a caring and engaging early learning environment.

We are truly impressed with the Chinese New Year celebration organised for the children at ELFA Hougang. The teachers’ performance of the lion dance was filled with enthusiasm and joy, creating an engaging and festive atmosphere for everyone. It was heartwarming to see the children joining in with shouts of excitement and dancing along, fully immersed in the celebration. The art and craft activity with calligraphy was another highlight, allowing the children to have even more fun while exploring their creativity and connecting with the traditions of the celebration. Overall, it was a wonderful experience for both the children and parents. Thank you to the school and teachers for making this celebration so memorable and enjoyable! I love ELFAAAA

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does "ELFA Preschool" charge per month?›
ELFA Preschool prices at the mid-range tier ($$) on a monthly recurring basis, which is the standard fee model for infant care and childcare in Singapore. Beyond the monthly fee itself, families should ask about the one-time registration fee, a deposit (typically equivalent to one to two months' fees), and any charges for uniform or personal accident insurance. Childcare and infant care fees in Singapore are GST-exempt, so the quoted monthly figure should reflect your total outlay before subsidies. Always request a full written fee schedule before signing the enrolment contract. See the full childcare cost guide for Singapore →
What subsidies can I claim at "ELFA Preschool"?›
Singapore citizen children enrolled in infant care may be eligible for the Basic Subsidy of up to S$600 per month (S$300 per month for childcare). Working mothers who clock 56 hours or more of work per month may qualify for the additional Working Mother's Child Care Subsidy on top of the Basic Subsidy. Families with household incomes below certain thresholds may also qualify for the Additional Subsidy, which can bring combined monthly support higher still. Permanent residents are eligible for partial subsidies at lower quantum. Subsidy amounts and eligibility criteria are set by ECDA and are subject to change, so check directly with ECDA or the centre for the most current figures before making financial plans.
Is there a waitlist at "ELFA Preschool"?›
Infant care places in Singapore are in high demand, and popular centres often fill their slots three to twelve months in advance. January is typically the peak intake month, making places especially competitive if your child is due to start at the beginning of the year. To secure a place, most centres require payment of a registration fee and deposit upon confirmation of the slot. Contact ELFA Preschool directly by phone or via the enquiry form to ask about current availability for your intended start month — the earlier you enquire, the better your chances of securing a place without a prolonged wait.
