Nursery Accreditation Scheme (NAS)
NAS aims to improve nursery industry standards and productivity
Last updated 19 November 2025
The NAS was launched in 2012 in order to tackle various challenges faced by the nursery industry in Singapore. The scheme provides a measure of the operating standards of individual nurseries. It aims to align nurseries' operations standards with NParks standards, and in the long run, to develop and maintain productive nurseries.
