Approach & Services
With a focus on understanding the unique developmental needs of each child, Preschool Pals Advisors helps expatriate families navigate Singapore’s early education landscape—consisting of 2000+ preschools—through personalized guidance and information resources in English and Spanish. We start with an intake questionnaire to determine if we can assist your family. Should we find that we can assist your family, the next step is a one-on-one consultation meeting where we aim to learn more about your child’s developmental, educational, and cultural needs and learn important details about the preschool you are seeking. This includes factors such as teaching philosophy, extracurricular activities, facilities, location, and cost. From this point, families have the option to hire us at different levels of service, ranging from customized research to school site visits.
Step 1: Questionnaire
Are we a good match? Our online questionnaire (found here) helps us determine whether we can support your preschool search. Expect to hear back from us within a week after submitting the questionnaire.
Step 2: Initial Consultation
Should we determine that we are a good match we will schedule a meeting to learn more about your children’s needs and preschool preferences. If families decide to hire us from this point, we will waive our initial consultation fee from the services selected.
Step 3: Customized Research*
Our most fundamental service is a comprehensive and customized research list of 3 to 5 preschools that have been determined to meet your specific preferences. School profiles include important information to help you make the best decision for your child.
Step 4: School Site Visits*
In addition to our customized research list, we accompany parents on 1 to 2 preschool site visits and provide insights and recommendations to help parents make informed decisions. For an added cost, parents may also choose to schedule a debrief meeting with us after all preschool site visits are completed.
Step 5: First Month Support
Once a suitable preschool is identified, parents may hire us as a sounding board during the first month of their child's enrollment to help both themselves and their children transition smoothly. Meetings with our staff will be conducted over video conference calls and are billed on an hourly basis.
*Should families seek additional schools to research or visit, this can be arranged for an additional fee.
