Depending on your child nationality, if your child is not Singaporean, you will not entitle to 6 days Childcare leave.
However, if you are covered under the Employment Act, you will be eligible for two days of paid Childcare leave if you meet the other qualifying criteria. Which mean you are only entitled to 2 days childcare leave per year but not 6 days childcare leave per year.
