Little Skittles is like a second home for our daughter and l am very thankful every day we made the decision to chose this school. My daughter joint the school 6 months ago, it took her less than a week to adjust to the new environment and since that, she's been looking forward every day to go to school and to play with her friends and the teachers. I can see how she's flourished there. She became much more sociable and talkative, her English improved significantly, she is also doing a very good progress with her Chinese language. She learns a lots of new things including good manners, she eats well&healthy and most importantly, she's having a lots of fun every day :-D The teachers prepare for the kids many different fun activities and they also spend a lot of time outdoor. I'd be very happy to recommend this school to every parent, I trust you won't be disappointed.
My son started in Skittles when he was 18 months old and it was the best choice we made. The transition was easy for him and for me because they handled it with so much care and professionalism. He greatly improved his speech and vocabulary, developed his social skills and was so confident and talkative during the time he was there. After nearly 2 years there, due to relocation, he left Skittles and up till now (7 months after moving) he still talks about the school and teacher Lily. If you are looking for a safe and happy place, caring, family environment school, this is the place. The management and the teachers are very helpful, patient, warm, and welcoming. They have a great methodology to lift each child differently working out on the kid’s strengths and weaknesses.
My 2 kids spent nearly 5 years that Little Skittles international school starting from baby class until K-1. The school has excellent English and Mandarin teachers who are proficient as well as caring and loving. They have really helped my kids grow up as knowledgeable, confident and empathetic kids. The school campus is great with an indoor and outdoor playground which means rain or shine kids have play time every day. There are tons of hands-on activities to educate and several celebrations to increase cultural awareness. I’m particularly thankful to the teachers of the school and also the leadership in Miss Upneet who has been the most thoughtful during PTMs and regular discussions. I will wholeheartedly recommend Little Skittles to any parent who wants a holistic nurturing environment for the kids to help them learn and grow.
My two children 5.5 and 3.5 attended Little Skittles for 18 months. It is a fantastic school and they have both been extremely happy. It was the 3rd school for my eldest and of the 3 schools that he attended Little Skittles was by far the best. In terms of value for money and term dates but also the children’s enjoyment, happiness and care. I cannot recommend the school enough. We are very sad to leave. The teachers do a great job.

Little Skittles International Preschool is priced at the mid-range ($$) tier for Singapore preschools and kindergartens. The centre has not published a specific monthly fee on this listing, so families should contact them directly for a current fee schedule. Beyond the monthly tuition, it is common for preschools to charge a one-off registration fee and a deposit equivalent to roughly one to two months of fees, payable upon acceptance of a place. Additional costs to ask about include uniforms and personal accident insurance. Childcare and kindergarten fees in Singapore are GST-exempt, so no goods and services tax should be added to the amounts quoted. See the full childcare cost guide for Singapore →
Singapore citizen children attending a licensed childcare centre may be eligible for the Basic Subsidy — up to S$600 per month for infant care and up to S$300 per month for childcare. Working mothers who are employed for at least 56 hours per month may additionally qualify for the Working Mother's Child Care Subsidy. For lower-income households, the Additional Subsidy (also known as the Additional CDA Subsidy) can bring combined subsidy support up to approximately S$710 per month depending on gross monthly household income. For kindergartens specifically, the Kindergarten Fee Assistance Scheme (KiFAS) may apply. Singapore Permanent Resident children are eligible for partial subsidies only. Subsidy quantum and eligibility criteria are reviewed periodically, so always verify current figures directly with ECDA at ecda.gov.sg before making financial plans. Note that subsidy eligibility also depends on whether the centre holds the relevant ECDA licence — confirm this with Little Skittles International Preschool directly.
Popular preschools and kindergartens in Singapore often fill places several months in advance, and infant care vacancies in particular can be taken up six to twelve months ahead of the intended start date. The January intake is typically the busiest period, as it aligns with the start of the school year, so families targeting that cohort should enquire early. To secure a place once offered, most centres require payment of a registration fee and a deposit. This confirms the enrolment and removes the child from the waitlist. Current vacancy at Little Skittles International Preschool is best confirmed by contacting the centre directly by phone or via the enquiry form, as availability changes frequently.
