There are 12 infants and toddlers who can be accommodated in this room. The open-concept space, which has the option of a separate area, is meant to keep younger toddlers safe from larger ones while allowing them to explore and grow. Our Tiddlywinks room is equipped with a communicative snuggling zone, little world and multi-sensory toys, as well as various daily changing activities. All of our kids have access to various sleeping and relaxing spaces, as well as designated feeding and diaper-changing areas. The Tiddlywinks room provides direct access to a private garden with play structures and other activities suited to the age group it caters to. Up to 30 kids may play in our skittles room according to registration. Additionally open in design, this space allows for unrestricted access to all activities, including the own enclosed garden. The space is organised with designated regions where the activities are changed every day. These include communication, building, home-corner, mark-making, and creativity. In our designated area for kids, or alternatively in our communication area, kids can unwind and sleep. This space also features a kid-friendly bathroom with kid-sized toilets, sinks, and a designated place for changing diapers. A playhouse, climbing structure, urban junk area, bike and scooter rentals, as well as a number of seasonal and weather-appropriate activities, are all included in the huge enclosed garden.
