A COVID-Safe Environment for Childcare Centres

Many parents send their young children to kindergartens and other childcare centres knowing that they are in a safe and secure environment. But how will this change in a post-COVID-19 environment? We speak to Ng Lai-Thin, project officer from the National Early Childhood Intervention Council (NECIC) to find out more about the guidelines that NECIC has published on measures that early childhood centres can implement to ensure a COVID-safe environment for the children.
