About This Little Season

This Little Season is a thoughtful space for parents in Singapore navigating the early years — from toddler tantrums to first fevers, preschool tours to packing for a family trip.

I created this blog after realising how hard it was to find local, practical and honest parenting advice — especially in those in-between moments when you’re just trying to figure things out on the fly.

The kind of advice you might ask a trusted friend:
“What should I do when my child has HFMD?”
“Is this fever normal?”
“Is there anywhere kid-friendly to go this weekend?”

Here, you’ll find:
🧺 Practical guides for common childhood illnesses and parenting situations
🌿 Reflections on everyday life with young kids in Singapore
✈️ Family-friendly travel tips (with realistic expectations)
🧸 Product picks and small joys that make life easier or lovelier

Whether you’re in the thick of toddlerhood or figuring out primary school registration, I hope this space brings you clarity, comfort — and the reminder that you’re not alone.

Because this season is messy. But it’s also fleeting, tender and worth holding gently.

If you’re a brand, organisation or parent-focused service looking to connect with families in Singapore, I’d love to hear from you. Find out more about how we can work together here.


About me

I’m Jaclyn — a stay-at-home mum to two young children, living in Singapore and learning as I go. I find joy in the everyday: school runs, bedtime rituals, handwritten notes and quiet little surprises.

Before this season of life, I was a magazine writer covering local women’s issues. I later ran a well-loved flower studio for over a decade — a dream that blossomed into a family business filled with creativity, community and chaos (!).

I’ve done the juggling mum act too — balancing work emails with childcare drop offs, panicking in the clinic queue because work was piling up . So I understand the mental load that working parents carry, and the small, unseen decisions that fill our days.

Over time, I found myself often searching for grounded, practical and localised advice — like what to ask at a preschool open house, or how to care for a child with HFMD — and realising it wasn’t always easy to find. So I began collecting what I’ve learned, from experience and from conversations with other parents, and putting it all in one place.

This Little Season is that space — a quiet corner of the internet where I share stories, notes, and reflections. It’s part parenting resource, part creative outlet — a way to stay connected, fulfilled, and not feel quite so “left behind” as a SAHM. I’m not here as an expert, just as a fellow parent figuring things out, one day at a time.

I’m also working on a children’s picture book that encourages young readers to pause, notice and engage with the world around them.

Stars on Orchard Road brings readers into the magic of Christmas in Singapore, where Orchard Road glows with festive lights and sparkling stars. Through a young child’s eyes, the story captures simple holiday rituals — strolling under the lights, soaking in the excitement, and sharing the season with family.

When I first picked up this book, it brought back memories of my own childhood — strolling along Orchard Road during Christmas. Now, I do the same walk with my kids. This picture book is a warm, celebratory read that captures a uniquely Singaporean Christmas — one that has grown into a tradition of its own, and one that can now be passed down, page by page, to the next generation.
