Dear Mummies and Daddies, I am à first time mom, we have a helper and my work hours are flexible. I am torn between a full day playgroup vs a few hourly playgroup. I am looking at which will benefit the child more. Am planning to send her when she is 18months. We stays in Punggol. Will love to hear your recommendations on centres and comments too

I personally recommend signing up for full day childcare as the price is only a few hundred more, but atleast you have the flexibility to leave your toddler for full day if necessary and take her out whenever you want. Also, depends if you are planning for number 2. If you are, might be a good idea to get baby 1 used to other caregivers so you don't need to deal with anxiety later on.
