Baby vaccination & checkup schedule (Singapore)

Every childhood vaccination and routine checkup from birth, laid out by age — based on Singapore's National Childhood Immunisation Schedule. Vaccinations are given at polyclinics, GP clinics and paediatric clinics; always confirm timing and any catch-up doses with your clinic, and check HealthHub for the latest official schedule.

Tips for vaccination visits

Bring the health booklet to every visit so each dose is recorded in one place.
Missed a dose? It happens — clinics routinely arrange catch-up doses. Just ask; there's no need to restart a series.
A mildly grizzly day after jabs is common. Your clinic will tell you what to expect and when to call — follow their advice over anything you read online (including this page).
Costs: many childhood vaccinations are subsidised for Singapore citizens and PRs — your polyclinic or GP can confirm what applies to your child.

Never miss a dose — free reminders

Add your children to a free account and we'll email you when each vaccination or checkup is coming up, and let you tick off what's done.
