This is the kindergarten your child deserves to go to!

LittleSparks is an outstanding school where the principal and all the teachers get to know your child educationally and emotionally helping your child to thrive. LittleSparks truly see your child as an individual and understand how to help your child soar into primary school with confidence and the knowledge they are ready for the challenge.

My eldest child arrived at LittleSparks with a lack of confidence in reading, writing and maths and was happily demonstrating his proficiency in these areas within six months of joining. The teachers provided him with extra support and tailored their teaching to suit him.

He loved LittleSparks. Our youngest is there too and is a much more inquisitive and educationally fulfilled child from being there.

All the teachers and staff are loving and warm.

We could not be happier to have found LittleSparks for my daughter’s school. Despite enrolling in the middle of a school year, my daughter was welcomed into her classroom and the wider school community from the very first day. All the teachers and staff are loving and warm, greeting the kids outside on arrival with a smile. Learning is done in a fun and hands on way so each activity is very much enjoyed by the kids. School starts each morning with singing and dancing — my daughter’s favourite part of the day.

As a parent it is a relief to find a school where your child wants to go to each day, where they are happy and loved & where they enjoy learning — but we did find this at LittleSparks.

LittleSparks is a wonderful school!

LittleSparks is a wonderful school! I was referred to the school through my friend who previously had her daughter enrolled in it and absolutely loved it. They give their students their all and understand that each child is different. My son loves his school and his teachers. As a parent, when I speak to the teachers, I can feel the love they have for their students. It can be daunting choosing a preschool but from the day we enquired about enrolling our son, we knew he would be in such wonderful hands with teachers who would love and guide him. I’m so glad my husband and I were able to secure him a slot. We have watched our child grow and become more confident of himself. We couldn’t be happier!

I cannot recommend this preschool enough.

My daughter has been going to this kindergarten since she was 18 months. I watched her blossom and become such an independent kid and nothing would have been possible without the care and guidance of the teachers from LittleSparks. I love this preschool because it’s small. The teacher turnover is almost nonexistent and they really take the time to communicate with the parents through WhatsApp or their special app where we can actually see how the child is developing, all of the activities that they do in school, all of the arts and crafts as well as the outdoor and sports activities that happen on Friday. Miss Gloria, the principal, is super hands-on and she will always know what happens with your kid and will be prompt to answer any questions you may have. They are known to prepare the kids for the P1 levels and to equip them with the necessary knowledge to thrive in elementary school. They are all about inclusivity and they celebrate diversity.

I remember when I first toured LittleSparks the children were rehearsing for their annual concert and Miss Gloria invited me to see the class. What I noticed is that every kid was happy, they all had a smile on their face, and they were dancing and rehearsing the routines holding hands. Compared to other preschools I visited where the kids were sleepy, bored and pretty unenthusiastic in class. I cannot recommend this preschool enough.

We feel so lucky to have found LittleSparks.

Our son has been with LittleSparks since 2021, and we couldn’t be happier. Ms. Gloria, Ms. Nanda, and their dedicated team provide a safe, loving, and nurturing environment. The teachers are genuinely caring, and most of them have been with the school for a long time. We feel so lucky to have found LittleSparks.

The teachers are very kind and genuinely helpful.

We’ve had a great experience with this school. The teachers are very kind and genuinely helpful, Nanda and Gloria are always willing to work closely with parents. I really appreciate how supportive and responsive they have been whenever we reach out.

The team shows so much patience and care with my children, and their guidance has really made a difference. We are grateful for the partnership and commitment from the whole school.

The school environment feels like family.

My son just completed his 1 year in LittleSparks starting from 18 months. The first few months was a period for him to get used to the school environment and he was crying and apprehensive. What made us feel reassuring and comforted was how patient and responsive the team of teachers were together with Principal Nanda and Ms Gloria. As my son gradually got more comfortable with school, he looks forward to going everyday and enjoys the varied activities and learnings every week. We are grateful the school environment feels like family and my son comes home daily relating what he learns in school happily. Thank you LittleSparks! We look forward to his remaining preschool years in this school :)

Both my boys were ready for primary school.

I’ve had 2 boys (5 years apart) go through Gloria, Nanda and their wonderful teachers. The best assurance for any parent reading this and deciding for their child is that her high standards definitely did not drop. I felt that both my boys (one just entered P1) were ready (mentally and academically) for primary school. I like and commend their way of teaching. Using a good mix of tactile Montessori tools and necessary paperwork, my kids have never complained that school was tedious. And I certainly have never worried that my boys were not ready for primary. LittleSparks celebrated their 20th anniversary in 2025 and I hope to see them celebrate many more anniversaries to come. Thank you LittleSparks Montessori for these precious years.

The teachers teach and guide with kindness and firmness.

My daughter joined LittleSparks as a 19-month-old and is now in her final year K2 (2020–2025). The joyful, confident and cheeky girl I see today is very much a product of her five years spent growing and learning at LittleSparks. The teachers teach and guide with kindness and firmness, and are ever ready to share insights and suggestions on how to support my daughter’s learning and development. I am grateful that the school does not believe in coddling, as students are encouraged to try, fail, learn and develop resilience. Parents enjoy a close partnership with school founder Ms Gloria, principal Ms Nanda, and the staff, who are ever ready to hear out our questions and concerns, and work on strategies to support and bring out the best in our children. I cannot thank Gloria and her wonderful team enough for their part in moulding my daughter into the person she is today.

The school will forever have a special place in our hearts.

Both my kids have studied in LS, and our experience has been nothing short of wonderful. From the very beginning, the school created a warm, nurturing, and engaging environment where my kids felt genuinely happy and excited to come in every day.

I’ve always appreciated how they balance structured learning with creative play, helping the kids develop confidence, independence, and curiosity.

Ms Nanda and Ms Gloria thank you so much and thank to all amazing teachers. The school will forever have a special place in our hearts. ❤

THE LITTLESPARKS WAY

How Montessori works at LittleSparks

Authentic Montessori, practised with depth and intention. Children learn at their own pace through hands-on materials they can see, touch, and explore — building strong foundations in both concepts and skills.

01

Observe

Each child is carefully observed so we understand how they learn, what interests them, and when they are ready to move forward.

02

Individualise

Lessons are planned around the child — never the other way around. Each child progresses at their own pace, with time to fully understand concepts. No one is rushed, and no one is held back.

03

Discover

Children are guided to make their own choices, deciding what they would like to work on with support from trained educators. Through hands-on exploration, they develop independence, concentration, and a genuine love for learning.

04

Apply

Children first learn through concrete hands-on materials, then gradually move to understanding ideas in a more abstract way. This builds strong confidence and prepares them well for Primary 1 and beyond.

PROGRAMMES

Learning that grows with your child

From toddlers to Primary 1-ready graduates — every LittleSparks programme follows the Montessori philosophy of self-paced, hands-on learning.
