Childcare and Early Years
Childcare Centre Marketing
Built Around Parent Tours. for Singapore
Singapore parents compare centres by neighbourhood, fees and hours, then WhatsApp two or three before they visit. We bring those parent enquiries and tour requests to your centre, with job seekers kept off the forms.
We build the search, family pages and tracking that show which search led to a tour in Singapore.

Frequently Asked Questions
Questions about childcare centres marketing? We have got honest answers in Singapore.
Who is this page for?
It is for the owner, principal or marketing lead of a Singapore childcare centre or kindergarten. It is not for parents looking for a place, and it is not for teachers looking for a job.
What does ECDA mean for our marketing?
ECDA licences and regulates early childhood centres in Singapore. We refer to your licence accurately and never show a status, rating or accreditation the centre does not hold. The centre stays responsible for following ECDA's rules on how it advertises.
Do you work with tuition or enrichment centres?
No. This section is for childcare centres and kindergartens. Tuition and enrichment providers attract different searches, different parents and different sales cycles, so we keep them separate in Singapore.
How do you stop job seekers using parent forms?
Parent pages and recruitment pages are separate. On paid search we add negative keywords for teacher jobs, salary and relief work. On the site, the parent enquiry form and the careers form are different so the two never share an inbox in Singapore.
Can you use photos of children in ads or on the site?
Only with written consent from parents or guardians, and in line with the Personal Data Protection Act. Where consent is not on file, we use photos of spaces, resources and staff who have agreed, or illustrations in Singapore.
How do you handle WhatsApp enquiries?
WhatsApp is a common first step for Singapore parents, so we add tracked WhatsApp buttons and log each click. Reply speed matters as much as the ad, so we agree with your team who answers and when.
Should we show fees on our website?
That is the centre's decision. Parents look for fee information early, and a clear page reduces back-and-forth. For subsidies, we point to official sources instead of restating figures from memory in Singapore.
Will you cover all of Singapore?
Coverage follows the towns and estates your centre serves. Most parents search close to home or work, so a centre in Punggol competes with nearby centres, not with the whole island in Singapore.
Can you promise a full waiting list?
No. Vacancies also depend on staffing, ratios, reputation and timing. We work on enquiry volume and quality, and we show you how many enquiries became tours and enrolments in Singapore.
How do you report results?
Monthly, where costs apply. Reports show enquiries by source, tours booked, tours held and enrolments, so you can judge marketing by places filled rather than clicks in Singapore.
Marketing from $500 USD a month
