SocietySingapore needs 1,800 more infant care educators by 2030: ECDA

Singapore’s preschool sector will need to recruit 1,800 additional infant care educators by 2030, the Early Childhood Development Agency says. An expanded manpower grant is expected to help preschools attract staff by subsidising training costs, while demand for infant care is forecast to rise after plans to lower fees were announced at the National Day Rally.
