Large Families Scheme
The SG Child Support Package announced at the 2026 National Day Rally will replace the Baby Bonus Scheme and Large Families Scheme. The increased CDA First Step Grant for large families will cease from April 2027. As Child Credits will be given to all eligible children under the Package, Large Family LifeSG Credits will also cease, with no disbursements in 2027. More details on additional support for large families will be provided at a later date.

The Large Families Scheme is a Government Scheme to strengthen support for Singaporeans who have three or more children. It builds on the Government commitment to provide greater support for couples who aspire to have more children, and to create a family friendly Singapore.

(i) a $5,000 Large Family MediSave Grant,
(ii) an increased Child Development Account First Step Grant from $5,000 to $10,000, and
(iii) $1,000 in Large Family LifeSG Credits that will be disbursed annually from the year that the child turns 1 to the year that the child turns 6*, and
