About "FunLab Preschool"
FunLab Preschool is a childcare and playgroup provider located at Beauty World Centre on Upper Bukit Timah Road, verified by KakiList.

Families considering FunLab Preschool would typically begin by enquiring about available slots for their intended start month, as places — particularly in playgroup programmes — can fill up well in advance. When reaching out, it is worth asking about the infant-to-caregiver ratio, the centre's daily routine, and the settling-in approach for younger children joining the programme. Parents of Singapore citizen children should ask about ECDA subsidies, which can meaningfully reduce the net monthly fee depending on household income and the mother's working status. A centre visit is strongly encouraged before committing.
To take the next step, contact FunLab Preschool directly by phone or via their enquiry form to check slot availability for your preferred start month and to arrange a visit to the centre. Listing data is incomplete — contact "FunLab Preschool" directly to confirm details.

My son really enjoys the FunLab preschool environment and curriculum. Great that the administrators and teachers are experienced and super professional. School is clean, spacious, and has a well thought through layout. Good mix of outdoor time (nature reserve and astro turf), sports activities, toilet + shower facilities, indoor playground, books, toys and other craft materials and yummy food. Mattress provided so no need to purchase your own. He's been to 3 different preschools, this is best one he's been to by far. Right at the Beauty World MRT door step, level 4 of Beauty World Centre.
FunLab Preschool at Bukit Timah is an amazing place for young learners! The teachers are caring, patient, and truly dedicated to the children’s growth. The environment is safe, clean, and full of engaging activities that make learning fun. My child loves going to school every day and has shown great progress. Highly recommended for parents looking for a nurturing and stimulating preschool experience!
Since it's a newly opened, it has a small class size, which allows the teachers to give close attention to each child and provide personal support. They update the daily activities with photos, so I can see in real-time what my daughter is doing. The communication between parents and teachers is also very good. If I need to ask anything, I can easily talk to them, and I trust them with my daughter. Every day, different activities are planned, and my daughter looks forward to going to school. The English and Chinese programs are also great. The new playground is well-maintained, and it gives the children a large, safe space to play in. Also, the location is very convenient. Since it's on the roof of a shopping mall, I can drop off and pick up my daughter without worrying about getting wet on rainy days, which is really helpful.
Our son has been going to Funlab since May and he is really enjoying his time in school! We were initially afraid that he would be crying and taking a long time to adapt, but the teachers and staff at Funlab has been very helpful and he managed to adjust very quickly and get comfortable😊 We are also very reassured because there are multiple updates throughout the day and any questions we have are met with quick response. We are really thankful to the teachers for their effort and care for him😌
My daughter started playgroup at Funlab in January 2025 and transitioned so well to starting school. The principal, Ms Lay Hong, and the teachers, were very warm, welcoming and patient, and really took very good care of her. She looks forward to going to school everyday. The teachers update what she does in school everyday, which is very reassuring for a working parent to see that she is well taken care of and learning well in school. She goes for outdoor time, indoor playground, song and music, and arts and crafts, with new activities planned every day.

FunLab Preschool is listed at the mid-range ($$) price tier for childcare in Singapore. Exact monthly fees are not publicly listed and should be confirmed directly with the centre. Beyond the headline monthly fee, families should ask about a one-time registration fee, a deposit (typically equivalent to two months' fees), and any costs for uniforms or group insurance. Childcare fees in Singapore are GST-exempt, so the figure quoted should reflect the full amount payable before subsidies. See the full childcare cost guide for Singapore →
Singapore citizen children attending licensed childcare centres may be eligible for the Basic Subsidy (up to S$300 per month for childcare, or up to S$600 per month for infant care), subject to enrolment at an ECDA-licensed centre. Working mothers who work 56 hours or more per month may additionally qualify for the Working Mother's Child Relief subsidy. Families with a gross monthly household income of S$12,000 or below may also be eligible for the Additional Subsidy, which can bring combined support up to S$710 per month. Permanent residents are eligible for partial subsidies at lower quantum levels. Note that subsidy amounts and eligibility criteria are subject to change — always check the ECDA website directly for the most current figures before making enrolment decisions. Whether FunLab Preschool is ECDA-licensed should be confirmed with the centre, as no regulatory licence is currently listed on this profile.
Availability at childcare centres in Singapore can be limited, particularly for popular programmes and age groups. As a general guide, families are advised to enquire three to twelve months ahead of their intended start date, with January being the peak intake month for most centres. Infant care places in particular tend to fill up earliest. To secure a slot, centres typically require payment of a registration fee and a deposit. Contact FunLab Preschool directly by phone or via their enquiry form to ask about current availability and the process for reserving a place for your child's intended start month.
