Hi all,

Just moved here last week and looking into foreign pre-schools for my daughter who will be joining me in January.  We live in Seocho-dong, Seocho-Gu.

I found some pre-schools on-line but most of them are north of the river and don't provide bus service since we live outside of their bus route.  BIK Cheongdam does provide bus service but I wanted to see if there were any other options.

Also, does anybody have any helpful info they can provide on BIK Cheongdam other than what is on their website?

thx.

Welcome to Seoul
Some of the International Schools also have pre-school programmes. See: http://www.korea4expats.com/article-international-schools-english.html

Hi and Welcome to Seoul!!

Two of my children attended ECLC International Kindergarten. I was extremely pleased with the program and the teachers and my kids were very happy there. It is a smaller international school specializing in the younger years, which I thought was so nice for the little ones. I have attached the link below..
Best of luck in your search!!

Thanks auntcyndi.  I'll look into ECLC but at first didn't because their website stated that their bus routes go to Gangnam and not Seocho.  We will live like right at the border (about three blocks south of Gangnam station) so it's worth a try to see if our daughter can get on the bus.

It's worth communicating directly with the centers north of the river. Those listed in the  Korea4Expats Directory definitely have English speaking staff who can answer your questions.
Good luck.
