Just so that we are aware of the difference between child care centres and other kindies, enrichment centres etc.

After some confusion myself, I came to the following understanding:

(1) That the government is subsidizing fees for CHILD CARE for working mothers. A child-care centre is licensed and must operate from 7 am to 7 pm (full day) and also open on Saturdays (7 am to 1 pm). These centres are mainly to cater for working parents who NEED to have somebody look after their kid for whole day and there must be meals provided.
