Quick answer

This map shows 1508 preschools (childcare centres and kindergartens) and 337 MOE schools in Singapore. Type your postal code or use your location to see the nearest ones first. Green pins have vacancies this month, yellow have limited places and red are full. Right now 464 centres report infant care vacancies, 1028 report Nursery 1 and 960 report Kindergarten 1. The areas with the most preschools are Bedok (119), Tampines (116) and Seng Kang (110).

    How to use the map

    1. Enter your postal code or tap “Use my location”. The list beside the map re-orders to show the nearest results first.
    2. Pick a level and tick “Only with vacancies” to hide full centres. Add Anchor Operator, SPARK, halal food, Saturday care or transport to narrow it down.
    3. Tap a pin or a name for the centre's page, with its full vacancy table for the next six months, registration fee, deposits and contact details.
    4. Switch to primary or secondary schools to see which schools are near the preschool you're considering, and filter by CCA, SAP or IP.

    What the colours mean

    • Green: the centre reports vacancies this month for the selected level (or for any level, if you haven't picked one).
    • Yellow: limited vacancies, meaning only a few places left.
    • Red: full this month. Later months can still have space, so check the centre's page.
    • Grey: the centre doesn't offer the level you selected.

    Where the data comes from

    Preschool locations, vacancies, schemes and hours come from the Early Childhood Development Agency (ECDA) “Listing of Centres” and “Pre-Schools Location” datasets. School information comes from the Ministry of Education's school datasets, and school map positions are matched from each school's postal code using OneMap. All of it is from data.gov.sg under the Singapore Open Data Licence version 1.0. Map tiles are from OneMap, Singapore Land Authority. Vacancies change quickly and are as reported by each centre, so always confirm with the centre before applying.

    296 centres in ECDA's listing don't yet have a published map position, so they appear in the directory but not on the map.

    Frequently asked questions

    How do I find preschools with vacancies near me?

    Open the map, enter your postal code or use your location, choose the level you need (for example Nursery 1) and tick “Only with vacancies”. The list shows the nearest centres first, with the levels that currently have places.

    How current are the vacancies on the map?

    Vacancies are as reported by each centre to ECDA, and the date each centre last updated is on its page. They change quickly, so contact the centre or check LifeSG before applying.

    Can I see primary schools near a preschool?

    Yes. Switch the map from Preschools to Primary schools, or open a centre's page, which lists the primary schools in the same area. You can filter schools by CCA, SAP, Integrated Programme and more.

    What is an Anchor Operator preschool?

    Anchor Operators are preschool operators that receive government funding to keep fees affordable; their fees are capped by ECDA. Tick “Anchor Operator” to show only these centres.
