Hi kids!
For a change, this post is for Moms and Dads!
-----------------------------
On popular demand from young parents, I tried to gather info on nursery schools, pre-schools, play schools, day care / creches in many parts of Chennai.
I came across many such centres in Adyar, T. Nagar, Mylapore, a few in Tiruvanmiyur, Abiramapuram, Velachery and Nungambakkam. Almost 'nil' in north Madras.
I guess the working parents reside, not in North Madras!
I welcome additions to the list. (The list is alphabetical in order)
Disclaimer: Parents, please verify with others who leave their kids in these places, before taking a decision. I do not have any personal experience or connection with any of these schools / creches!

The children will do an assortment of activities each day - games, music, art/craft, dance, stories, dramatics, yoga, field trips, etc. to enhance self-esteem, motivation, group interaction, movement & fine motor skills, and bring out their particular talents. Also to build pre-reading, pre-writing & pre-mathematics skills in addition to English vocabulary and general knowledge.
First batch intended to start on March 1.
Registration cum material fee is Rs 250. For 12 weeks, course fee is Rs 500.
You can write to me at my gmail id which is mayanair followed by .75 located at gmail in the com domain. Do mention your contact phone number & address and kid's details. I will get in touch with you to answer your queries.

please give me addresses of playschools at kotturpuram, chennai

They have about 6000 sq.ft of air-conditioned space at each of their localities, great outdoor facilities and an adult-child ratio of 1:6.I've had wonderful experiences with SEED, and I highly recommend that you try there.

I noticed there is new day care, after school club called Grandma & Grandpa's opening in Chennai in Besant Nagar, near Kalakeshetra colony. Fantastic facilities and programs, standards based on UK curriculum. Pretty convenient flexible timings for full time working parents. Easy access to IT corridor, Tidel Park, OMR, Adyar, Besant Nagar.
Parent Choice is a international school and day care combined. It is there in Adyar and Shollinganallur (opp Infosys) where I work.
It is expensive but then the quality is great. Every 3-4 kids they have a teacher. Their timings are very apt for us working parents.
Hi,
I am looking for a good day care center in sholinganallur. I found Parent choice and Apple kids. Can anyone pls tell me which one is the best
Anyone have personal experience with any of the above said daycare centers in sholiganalur? If so pls share with us

Hi Parents,
The latest craze to hit the market is the FRANCHIZEE sector for Pre-schools.Beware of these start ups as most of them do not have the right infrastructure, experience or attitude. You need to choose wisely for your child. Look for schools who have the right balance.

Check it out.
Please check out the Amelio Early Learnign Centre at Sholinganallur. Visted there last week and they were really open about what they do. You can take your child along which I thought was a big plus. You really get to see how well she/he likes the place. My child didnt want to leave at the end!!! They ahve really thought through their space design and it ties up very well with their curriculum. The website is quite useful in explaining what they do and directions to the place. www.ameliochildcare.com

Parent Choice are charging very high fees, they don't really care for the kids. Even when the kid get injured during school time, the faculty is not even aware that injury had happened. They refuse to take ownership of anything happening during school time and blame the parents if we complain. If you really care for your kids well being this is not the right choice. Management is very arrogant in nature and refuse to answer any queries from parents.
