πΆπ» For childcare and infant care, we have the Basic Subsidy and Additional Subsidy.
π§π»π¦π» For kindergarten, we have the Kindergarten Fee Assistance Scheme (KiFAS).
We answer some of your questions here:
1. What subsidies do my family qualify forβπ°
All families of Singaporean children at any childcare centre will receive a Basic Subsidy. For full-day childcare, the Basic Subsidy is $300 (for working mothers) or $150 (for non-working mothers). There is no change to the Basic Subsidy.
2. Does my family qualify for Additional Subsidyβπ°π΅
Today, working mothers with monthly household income of $7,500 and less can receive the Additional Subsidy based on income level. From January 2020, the income ceiling will be raised to $12,000.
3. Does the childcare centre/kindergarten which my child is attending affect the Additional Subsidyβπ°π΅π
As long as your child is enrolled with an ECDA-licensed childcare centre, you may qualify for the Additional Subsidy based on your monthly household income. However, Kindergarten Fee Assistance Scheme (KiFAS) is applicable only at Anchor Operators Kindergartens (e.g PCF) or MOE Kindergartens.
ππΌ Tune in to Channel 5 News 5 πΊtomorrow at 9pm for Minister Desmond Lee's live interview, where he will share more on the preschool subsidies.
