Monthly full-day fee for a Singapore citizen child, before subsidies and GST. Where a centre lists more than one full-day fee for a level, its lowest is used.

A child is in Pre-Nursery in the year they turn 3, then Nursery at 4, K1 at 5 and K2 at 6, so a 4-year-old who turns 5 next year starts K1 next year. Playgroup is for children from 18 months until they turn 3. Source: ECDA Code of Practice (5th edition, 2026), Annex F, read 11 Oct 2026.

How to read the fees

Citizen, PR or others

Each centre lists one fee for Singapore citizens, one for PRs and one for everyone else. Use the column for your child's citizenship. Subsidies come off later, so the figure is the full fee.

Full day or half day

Full-day and half-day figures are monthly fees. Kindergartens name their programmes Session 1, Session 2 and so on. Where the centre's note to ECDA, or MOE for its own kindergartens, gives the hours, a label beside the name says so, like 6-hour programme. Flexi care, sessions and emergency care are priced differently by each centre, so read the note under the row.

GST

ECDA lists fees before GST. You can see it in the numbers: Anchor Operator centres list exactly $610 for full-day childcare, the cap ECDA states before GST, and MOE Kindergartens list $146.79, which is $160 without 9% GST. Each centre page says whether the centre charges GST.

Dates

Each table shows when the centre last updated those fees with ECDA. A date from last year is a reason to ask the centre for its current fees.
