Moving to Singapore - Yikes!

I have been offered a move to Singapore (on my own with 4 year old). Appears to be a relatively good package although just at negotiation stage. Any help on the following would be much appreciated:

Where to live - dont't mind an apt/condo as long as its got some outdoor space and a pool. Will be working in CBD and want to minimse travelling?
Nursery/Kindergarten - best options for a 4 1/2 year old bearing in mind I need all day care? He is used to being at local nursery every day and with his childminder.
Nannies/Babysitting - Ideally I dont want a full time maid so is it possible to get part time child care?

Should be visiting for a couple of weeks mid/end Oct to try and sort some of this out. Must say its all a bit overwhelming but the previous threads have been really helpful.

Post this again in the living overseas bit as there are a few from Singapore on there.

Also have a look at the British Expats Website. I am sure it has a section for Singapore (I use it for Australia!).

Good lucj!

I think in Singapore it is very easy and cheap to get a person who is a housekeeper come minder. Pretty normal in Singapore I believe.

Good luck
