Choo Choo Train Got You Covered

• Qualified Care & Teachings

Teachers and caregivers here are NICCE (National Institute of Child Care and Education) qualified. NICCE is Choo Choo Train’s own dedicated institute, which is recognised and accredited by the Malaysian government. For its childcare services, the centre employs both caregivers and academic teachers. Caregivers are solely responsible for the safety and hygiene of the children, while academic teachers focus on the learning and developmental aspects of the programme. Additionally, caregivers undergo a month of physical training before they are allowed to independently care for children.

• Carefully structured systems & Safeguards in Place

Choo Choo Train upholds the highest safety and hygiene standards with a well-structured system. Each centre, including Desa ParkCity, has an Operations Executive overseeing daily operations and parent communication. Classroom supervisors closely monitor teachers and children, reducing the risk of mistreatment or accidents. CCTV cameras cover every corner, with footage reviewed daily. Teachers conduct daily safety and cleanliness checks, while management performs spot checks and quarterly quality control. Monthly, centres undergo full disinfection, including fogging, UV sterilization, and dust-mite vacuuming for baby playpens.

• Nutritious & Thoughtfully Prepared Meals, Daily

Choo Choo Train takes great pride in its nutritious meals provided at each centre. Food menus are specially curated by a nutritionist to ensure children get balanced, age-appropriate meals. Fresh ingredients are used daily and they prioritise quality over quantity, sourcing ingredients from reputable grocery stores with halal certification, rather than buying in bulk from wet markets. Supervisors are responsible for preparing the meals and ensuring that the food is fresh and properly cooked.

• Environment and Facilities Are Paramount

The design of the facilities are of paramount importance as the environment is deemed the third teacher in the learning process. Space aesthetics and intentional set ups always make the centre welcoming and comforting. Purposeful materials are thoughtfully added to the layout to promote close relationships, communication, experimentation and exploration through play.

• Relationships Based on Reciprocity

The process between caretakers, children and parents is a collaborative one. One partnership that is highly respected by the team. It is a fundamental goal at Choo Choo Train to maintain clear and constant communication with all families. This is demonstrated through ongoing open and honest interactions that discuss different issues, answers queries and wholly supports parents in the developmental journey, both in the centre and at home.

A place to belong, a place to grow and a place where great minds are born.
