Families considering The Gardner Preschool for infant care are encouraged to enquire early about available slots for their intended start month, as infant care places are in high demand. When you get in touch, ask about the infant-to-caregiver ratio, the daily routine, how the settling-in period is structured, and what support is offered as your child transitions into care.

In short, this is the best preschool, and I really mean it. Led by an enthusiastic and energetic founder/centre manager, teachers and staffs are caring, attentive, nurturing, dedicated, and creative, which can be seen via day-to-day teaching, events, and year-end concert/graduation. Low teachers turnover make it a condusive learning environment for kids. My boy had great fun for his preschool time in The Gardner, attending to preschool happily everyday. A big thank you to the Gardner, keep it up.

The Gardner Preschool K2 Graduation & Concert on Saturday, December 6, 2025, Singpost HQ was truly magnificent and executed flawlessly. We were particularly impressed with the thoughtfulness and meticulous detail evident in the entire production. The concert contents, combined with the decorations—including the uniforms, toys, props and banners—were all wonderfully selected and perfectly matched, creating a visually appealing and cohesive theme. This level of quality clearly reflects the tremendous effort and dedication put in by every teacher and staff member. The reasonable ticket price was also a welcome bonus! Well done to everyone involved! We thoroughly enjoyed the event and are already looking forward to the next graduation and concert for our second grandchild. Thank you! ❤️❤️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

My 6-year-old has been attending the Gardner for the past 4.5 years and my daughter attended it during her K1 and K2. The school offers an excellent balance of play-based learning and early literacy skills. The teachers are nurturing, attentive, and truly care about each child’s individual needs. They maintain open communication with parents, providing regular updates and photos of your child’s actions. The facilities are clean, bright, and well-equipped with age-appropriate learning materials. Overall, it provides a nurturing environment that fosters a strong educational foundation. I highly recommend Gardner Preschool for those seeking a quality early education environment.

The teachers are involved, the extracurriculars that are offered are great, and I love the field experiences that are offered. It truly is a gem of a school.

Luckily, I chose the school for my two kids, I got 100% to trust them because they treated my child as their own. The kids loved to school everyday and enjoyed every moment in class. The teachers were excellent, professional, patient, friendly, trustable and reliable. They kept an effective dialogue with me for updating my child’s status, they did so many things for the children, thanks so much for the teachers. That’s really a good and safe place for my kids having their wonderful childhoods, thanks very much for The Gardner Preschool!

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does "The Gardner Preschool" charge per month?

The Gardner Preschool operates on a monthly recurring fee model, priced at the mid-range tier ($$) for infant care. Exact monthly fees are not published on this listing — contact the centre directly for a current fee schedule. Beyond the monthly fee, be prepared for a one-off registration fee and a deposit (typically equivalent to one to two months' fees) when securing a place. Some centres also charge for uniforms and personal accident insurance. Childcare and infant care fees in Singapore are GST-exempt, so the quoted monthly amount should be what you pay. See the full childcare cost guide for Singapore →

What subsidies can I claim at "The Gardner Preschool"?

Singapore citizen children enrolled in licensed infant care centres are eligible for the Basic Subsidy of up to S$600 per month. If the mother is working at least 56 hours per month, an additional Working Mother's Child Care Subsidy (WMS) applies on top of this. For lower-income households, the Additional Subsidy (means-tested) can bring combined subsidy support to up to S$710 per month in total. Permanent Resident children may qualify for partial subsidies at lower quantum. KiFAS applies to kindergarten programmes rather than infant care. Subsidy amounts are subject to revision, and eligibility depends on the centre holding the relevant ECDA licence — confirm this directly with The Gardner Preschool. Always check current figures with ECDA at ecda.gov.sg before making financial plans.

Is there a waitlist at "The Gardner Preschool"?

Infant care places are among the most competitive in Singapore's childcare sector, and popular centres often have waitlists stretching three to twelve months ahead. It is advisable to enquire as early as possible — ideally six months or more before your intended start date. The January intake is typically the busiest period, as it aligns with the start of the calendar year. To register your interest and secure a place, most centres require payment of a registration fee and a deposit. This does not always guarantee immediate enrolment but places you in the queue. Contact The Gardner Preschool directly via phone or the enquiry form to ask about current availability for your preferred start month.
