Persatuan Pengasuh Berdaftar Malaysia (PPBM)

The Association of Registered Childcare Providers Malaysia (ARCPM) or Persatuan Pengasuh Berdaftar Malaysia (PPBM) as is better known is a non profit organization registered with the Registrar of Societies in September 1989.

PPBM works closely with the Ministry of Women, Family & Community Development, Malaysia. It was entrusted with ensuring quality alternative childcare for children up to four years old. In collaboration with 22 Affiliated State Associations throughout the country, PPBM work towards ensuring that the children receive quality care by professional childcare providers and/or their parents.
​
PPBM has gone a long way to staying relevant with best practices in the field of early childhood care & education. As such, PPBM is actively involved in contributing to the government’s transformation programs, involving itself in the up-skilling and upgrading of workforce for post SPM, technical and vocational schools, tertiary and continuing life long education. Through PPBM’s involvement in the EPP1, that is scaling up early childcare & education centres and EPP2, that is improvement in ECCE training PPBM believes, its involvement is in line with its vision and mission.

PPBM's Executive Committee and a pool of experienced Consultants, Trainers and members have the necessary expertise, strengths, specialities and practical experiences as early childhood practitioners.
