About Beacon Children's Centre
Two in every five children in resource-limited settings are not meeting their developmental potential, and these numbers continue to rise. Many of these children are at risk of developing childhood disabilities if not supported. Beacon Children's Centre is a one-stop integrated early child development centre established to propel every child to their full potential. Our dedicated team of early childhood development professionals strives to ensure we identify and holistically support the development of every child who comes through our Centre, to bring out their best version. Our services are family-centred, to ensure that caregivers are empowered and supported on this journey. We believe every child is a flower that must bloom in their time when well-nurtured.

Word from Our Founder
"I believe every child matters and was born to fulfil a God-given purpose. As a developmental paediatrician, my passion and priority are to ensure that all children live to meet their purpose. However, families with children with developmental difficulties face high societal stigma, discrimination, and the limited support services in our local settings. These remain key barriers to accessing the much-needed care. Beacon Children's Centre (BCC) is an integrated early child development centre that I established in November 2020 as part of my efforts to address existing gaps and contribute to improving the outcomes of children with disabilities. I envisioned a place where every affected child and their families would be physically, mentally, and spiritually supported. We commit to serving all our clients with utmost diligence and professionalism as God enables us."
