About The Fun Cove

Go-to spot with extended childcare hours beyond regular preschool timings.

The bulk of The Fun Cove's bookings cover Nanny / Babysitter. Because this is a focused childcare operation, most jobs are scoped over WhatsApp first — photos of the issue, property type, and preferred slot — before a price is quoted.

The Fun Cove covers all of Singapore, which is useful if you live in a less-central estate or need a provider that can follow a recurring job to different addresses. The business is KakiList-verified, meaning a real person has confirmed the operating details and contact channel. Google reviewers currently give The Fun Cove a solid average of 4.3/5 across 29 reviews, which is a reasonable signal of consistency for a childcare provider.

The practical way to decide on The Fun Cove is to message them directly with a short job description, property type, and any relevant photos. Direct contact means no platform middleman and usually a faster response than form-based lead submissions.

Is The Fun Cove legit?

Likely yes — The Fun Cove has some trust signals, but always confirm the quote in writing before making payment.
  • Verified by KakiList
    We cross-check listed businesses against Singapore's official ACRA registry before marking them as verified.
  • 4.3/5 from 29 Google reviews
    Google reviews are harder to fake than testimonials on a provider's own website because each reviewer has an auditable Google account.
  • 📍
    Operating islandwide
    A provider listing specific coverage zones is more credible than a vague "all of Singapore" claim, because it implies real scheduling and logistics.

My two kids went for messy play session at the Fun Cove and loved it! The session was well organised, and had a variety of sensory materials and activities to engage the kids. The facilitator was professional and engaging. She noticed my girl being very mesmerised with the colourful beads, and thoughtfully packed a small jar for her to take home. She was very attentive to details, so important for little children who can't communicate well yet. The environment was peaceful, cosy, and had child accessible fittings such as small toilet and small sink to encourage independence from preschoolers. Highly recommend!

It was just 2 months to my wife's EDD and we started to worry about not having anyone to look after our toddler during that period of time. Stumbled upon the The Fun Cove online and the labour package that they are offering where they can help look after our toddler during the period of labour until my wife is discharged. We decided to give it a try, went for the trial sessions and my toddler absolutely loves it! There wasn't any hesitation in signing up their labour package to put our minds at ease. We also appreciate the fact that someone was around within a short notice on the morning that my wife started having contraction. Sent our toddler there with his barang barang before heading down to the hospital. Photo updates were sent to us to let us know how our toddler is coping. My wife was discharged on day 3 and when I went to pick up my toddler, he wasn't ready to leave The Fun Cove! He must have had so much fun! Our overall experience with The Fun Cove was great and assuring at the same time. Absolutely a life saviour for families who do not have a village to help in times of need.

We placed our baby at Fun Cove and were really impressed with the care she received. The teachers treated her with so much patience, warmth and attention. The environment is cosy, clean and calming, and communication throughout the day was great — we always felt reassured and updated. We genuinely trust the centre and the teachers with our baby! Fun Cove is a childcare that truly shows sincerity and heart in what they do. We’re very grateful for the positive experience and would definitely recommend this centre to parents looking for a safe, nurturing and caring place.

Definitely recommend to every parents especially those who have no village, like us for instant. Really thankful for Calista for coming up with such services, and for people that have no village at all, we still get to attend important events that discouraged to bring small kids. Calista took good care of my baby and even tried her best to accommodate to our request. TFC will also update you some photos, which actually showed that my baby enjoyed her time there actually 😆

Our active 2.5 year old spent 10 hours at the fun cove. The space is clean, well furnished and my son was able to articulate everything he did there. They took into consideration what i shared with them about his interests and engaged him accordingly. We received photos and updates throughout the day from the centre. For his first time there, he was comfortable with the teachers and space and enjoyed himself. No crying and tears, all smiles! It was a good alternative for a school closure day. Might consider again in the future as alternative caregiving in an emergency.
