good childcare that respects children for who they are

help! i am currently looking for a childcare that respects children. my son is 4. he was traumatised by a previous childcare here in the tanglin area and i do not wish to repeat his unhappy experience. do any of you out there know of one in the tanglin/orchard area? i have visited about 7 and they are all either very focused on the 'curriculum' or seem to have no understanding of children's psychology. (ie with unneccessary rules that go against a child's nature.)
one even has a specific time for drinking water! no drinking any other time! for little children! is it just me because i find that abit abusive?
also, i feel that if a child is happy/relaxed, learning will come naturally to them. ( as my son is. ) he is so interested in counting and reading without me actually focusing on him learning anything!
