Infant Care

Im a single mother & I had 1 child, turning 6 month.. & my mum which she's ill & shes not working, help me out to takecare of my daughter. too much conflicts at home. not in good terms with my half brother n sister in law. Alot of thought because i need to work to support myself, my baby n my mum. Its very hard & struggle when theres no one supporting me even living in the same house. My mum is not that strong anymore to takecare of my daughter which she's slowly growing. shes really need some rest for herself already. any suggestion the easiers way to apply infant care? im turning 20years old this year, so its kind of impossible to have my own room or house. i hope i get some advices from anyone. much appreciated ☺?

Like what Billie shared, you can put your daughter at infantcare from as early as 2 months old - here's a useful guide that would help in finding a suitable infantcare centre near you! https://www.dearlittleones.com/single-post/2018/02/15/How-to-Choose-an-InfantChildcare-Centre Other than that, you can look into family service centres and social workers if you need help in other areas - just locate the nearest FSC to you and let them know about your situation. If you're working, you are eligible for a working mum subsidy under the childcare - generally the government ones like Sparkletots are cheaper, my son is in full day childcare now for as low as $30.40/month because we have maximum subsidy due to our family situation (am also a single mum, delivered when I was 19 years old - working freelance with little income).

Babies as young as 2 months old can start going to infant care. Are there any available infant care places near your house? Let the infant care center know that you need the place urgently due to family situation. If you are a working mum, you can get subsidy. I remember reading that some of the centers (my first skool, sparkletots) have additional special funding to help low income families, after subsidy. No harm asking them to check if there’s additional help with the fees. Next, if you need help with household expenses like electricity bills, you can go to a social service office for advice on comcare or other welfare schemes - https://www.msf.gov.sg/dfcs/sso/default.aspx
