Dear Forumers,

My wife and I hereby retract our former forum topic discussion/statement on Character Montessori ( Ang Mo Kio). We unreservedly apologize to Character Montessori Asia Pte Ltd for the exaggerated statements made by us in the forums. Instead, we will like to maintain that Character Montessori is a good reputable childcare provider institution with dedicated and qualified caregiver/teachers.

The responsibilities of being first-time parents without extended family support coupled with added responsibilities of taking care of my parents and terminal ill parent (my wife’s mother) had taken it’s toil on me and my wife not only mentally and emotionally, but also physically and financially.

It was under such tremendous stress and pressure when we first enrolled our then infant daughter to Character Montessori. As a result of the above mentioned, we became overly protective parent. On that note, we had overly reacted in our dealings with Character Montessori. We regretted posting our previous comments on the infantcare teachers with Character Montessori Asia Pte Ltd. This realization only came about slowly, months after we put our child in other childcare provider institution. On retrospective, not only was the quality of childcare and educational curriculum better in Character Montessori , the dedication and professionalism of one of the Character Montessori teachers (i.e Chinese Teacher Ju Lao Shi) was unmatched. We had not experienced another teacher that is as dedicated as Ju Lao Shi.

On hindsight, our child would likely have even greater development if we had continued to leave her under the care and supervision of Character Montessori. The level of maturity of infants who graduated from infantcare to playground in Character Montessori is remarkably higher in general. For parents with infants looking for caregiver, we will highly recommend Character Montessori.
