Infant Child Care is my final choice!

After a serious thought for a day and finally I came to a decision. I decide to put Davian in an infant care. Every options we had has its pros and cons but we got to weigh them and see which one is more appropriate for us.

In Infant care at least I am assured of Davian's learning ability and ensure of his sociability. Though the risk of him falling sick is high at such a tangible age but we will just pray hard that his immunity is strong enough to overcome.

Today, we went to the school which dear had found for him to take a look. It was somewhere nearby his workplace. The school name is Cherie Hearts @ Ubi. The environment is clean and well organised. They have different segments or rooms for different stage of learning. So far for infant (First Learning) there is only 11 students and they can take in up to 17 students. The ratio is 1 : 3. MCYS has set a standard for schools to take in 1 : 5 but when dear spoke to the principle yesterday she is not agreeable to numbers as from her past experience from PCF, it is not possible for a teacher to care for 5 students. I am quite comfortable with the ratio set by the school and feel more at ease that the teachers there can pay more attention to each infant there.  Since today is a Saturday, there is no students except for one 13 months old girl playing with a teacher.

I spend about 15minutes interviewing the teachers there and to understand how they operate the class. So far they meet my standard  and dear had even spoke to the principle of the school yesterday when he went there to have a look.

The fee for infant care is about $1450 but after subsidy it will be around $600+. It is much worth than any of my other choices.

I will be enrolling him starting from July and will observe for a month. Hope everything goes well and I shall continue him with the school through his following years.
