About Little Hands Montessori Kindergarten
Little Hands Montessori Kindergarten is a KakiList-verified preschool and kindergarten located at 2A Paterson Hill, Singapore 238565. The centre holds a 5-out-of-5 rating on Google, though this is based on 10 reviews — a small sample that should be treated as directional rather than conclusive. Fees are positioned in the mid-range tier (S$$) for the Singapore market.
Families considering a place should begin by enquiring about slot availability for their intended start month, as Montessori programmes in Singapore can fill quickly. When you contact the centre — via WhatsApp, phone, or the enquiry form — ask about the infant-to-caregiver ratio, the daily Montessori routine, and the settling-in period for younger children. It is also worth clarifying whether the centre holds an ECDA licence, as this determines eligibility for government subsidies available to Singapore citizen children. Confirm any registration fee, deposit requirement, and whether uniforms or insurance are charged separately.
As a concrete next step, reach out through WhatsApp or the enquiry form to ask about current vacancies for your child's intended start month and to arrange a centre visit before making any commitment.

I have sent all three of my boys to Little Hands Montessori throughout the years, two of them currently still there. You would not believe how amazing they have turned out. Little hands is hands on, has lots of variety, their reading program is second to none, as with their year end shows. 100% recommend that any parent considers this Kindy in their must visit shortlist.
It has been a wonderful time for my son in this school. It’s a really Great school, friendly staff and lots of co-curricular activities apart from the montessori work. He’s learnt and lot and has a very good overall development. My son really enjoys going here! And we love it as well :)
I love this school so much! Amazing teachers, amazing program. I will highly recommend this school to anyone I know. My daughter and my son grew academically and emotionally within a year of being in the school.
My daughter has spent two and half amazing years there in Little Hands. Can't recommend it enough!

Little Hands Montessori Kindergarten is priced in the mid-range (S$$) bracket for Singapore preschools and kindergartens, though exact monthly fees have not been published on this listing. When you enquire, ask for the full fee schedule — including any one-time registration fee, a deposit (typically equivalent to one to two months' fees), uniform costs, and any annual insurance levy. Childcare and kindergarten fees in Singapore are GST-exempt, so the figure quoted should be the amount you pay. Fee structures can vary depending on the programme type, session length (half-day versus full-day), and the child's age group, so it is worth confirming these details directly with the centre.

Government subsidies for childcare and kindergarten in Singapore are available to Singapore citizen children enrolled at ECDA-licensed centres. 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 clock at least 56 hours of work per month may qualify for the Additional Working Mother Child Development Co-Savings (WMS) grant on top of this. For lower-income families, the Additional Subsidy (income-tested) can bring combined support up to approximately S$710 per month. Kindergartens may also fall under the KiFAS (Kindergarten Fee Assistance Scheme). Singapore Permanent Residents are eligible for partial subsidies only. Before assuming subsidy eligibility, confirm directly with Little Hands Montessori Kindergarten that the centre holds a valid ECDA licence, as this is a prerequisite for all government subsidy schemes. Subsidy amounts are subject to change — refer to the ECDA website for the most current figures.
Availability at popular Montessori programmes in Singapore can be limited, and it is advisable to enquire at least three to six months ahead of your intended start date. Infant care places in particular tend to fill earliest, sometimes six to twelve months in advance. The main intake period in Singapore is January, so families targeting the new school year should begin their enquiry in mid-year at the latest. To secure a place once offered, centres typically require payment of a registration fee and a deposit. Contact Little Hands Montessori Kindergarten directly via WhatsApp, phone, or the enquiry form to check current availability for your child's age group and intended start month.
