The Wesley Methodist Church is thankful to the Lord for enabling us to start the first Child Development Centre at Neil Road in January 1988, and subsequently blessing with yet another two more, one at Toa Payoh and the other at Serangoon North in 1992 and 1993 respectively.

Our objective is to give quality day care for children, emphasizing Holistic nurture as the core of an effective education and curriculum. As such, we endeavour our best to nurture each child spiritually, physically, socially and intellectually, believing that a child who is loved and well cared for would in turn know how to share and reach out with love & care to others, even at a young age.
