“Dear Mrs. Koh and Yishun Life Student Care Teachers,

I am writing this letter to express and extend my sincere thanks to Mrs. Koh, the teachers and staff of Life Student Care at Yishun.
Thank you for all you’ve done for me and my child, Nathan, who has been diagnosed with autism.

Firstly, I’m really grateful for to your team for accepting him into your centre. Instead of rejecting us immediately, you warmly welcomed us and took the time to understand our situation and concerns. You gave me hope and confidence that my child will learn and grow in a safe and caring environment.

Nathan is an active boy, with challenges to focus and to follow instructions, especially when things do not go his way.

I am grateful that the teachers are always patient with him and always keeping me updated so that we can collaborate and develop ideas to help Nathan improve.

During the past year, Nathan has been encouraged to join in group activities. I now observe he is able to communicate and mingle with the rest of the children from mainstream schools. He has also learnt to be more independent in his daily activities – showering, keeping his utensils, clearing and packing his own stationery, and many more.

These things seem simple and easy, but every bit of improvement means a lot to me as a mother!

I am really thankful and appreciate the efforts of all the teachers and staff!

Thank you for the guidance and support you’ve given him.”

-Ms Joey, Mother of Nathan Teo

“Dear Mrs. Koh and Yishun Life Student Care Teachers,

I would like to express my thanks to your centre for taking care of Cavan. I have seen so much improvement in him after he joined your centre.

Before he joined your centre, he was extremely picky with food. He would not eat any fruit or vegetables. 

Since joining your centre, not only does he enjoy the lunch served at the centre, he has started eating more variety of food at home! We asked Cavan and found out that your teachers have been encouraging him to try various food.

I am also thankful that his homework is always completed when he returns home from your centre. His spelling tests in school have also improved!

I am pleasantly surprised that parents were also invited to some of the activities you conduct, this allows us to bond with our child!  

I like how the centre handles administrative matters and conveys timely information. This is very helpful especially for working parents. The parent portal app is very useful, I am always informed when Cavan leaves the centre.

I am really glad that I made the decision to move Cavan to Life Student Care (Yishun) even though the previous student care centre is much nearer to his school.  

Thank you once again for the care shown to Cavan, and to us parents.”
