ABA LABS Named Best in Home-Based Therapy and Developmental Support 2025

Written by Eugene Tng, QASP-S, Programme Director at ABA LABS

We're proud to share that ABA LABS has been named Best in Home-Based Therapy and Developmental Support in the Parents World Best Enrichment and Learning Schools 2025 awards, with a Best of the Best distinction in the category.

For a practice that started from scratch, this recognition means a great deal. It belongs to our therapists, who show up for children week after week, and to the families who welcome us into their homes and trust us with their children's growth.

What the Award Recognises

The award recognises ABA LABS in the category of home-based therapy and developmental support. Everything we do is built around supporting children where they live, learn and play: at home, with the people who matter most to them. You can see all our recognitions on our News and Media page.

Why We Believe in Learning at Home

A child's home is where skills actually get used. Asking for a drink, getting dressed, playing with a sibling, coping when plans change: these moments happen at home, not in a therapy room. When therapy happens in the same place, children are more likely to carry their new skills into everyday life. We explain the trade-offs in more detail in our guide to home-based vs centre-based ABA in Singapore.

Home-based therapy also lets us:

• Work on real routines. We build goals around your family's actual day, from mealtimes to daily living skills like dressing and brushing teeth.

• Involve parents directly. Parents see the strategies in action and learn to use them between sessions, such as positive reinforcement that doesn't feel like bribing.

• Reduce stress for the family. No travelling to a centre, no waiting rooms, and sessions that fit around your child's day.

• See the whole picture. Being in the home helps us understand what's really happening and adjust the plan quickly.

What Families Get With ABA LABS

Our services cover ABA therapy and early intervention at home, school readiness, school shadowing, social skills training and developmental assessments. Every programme is overseen by our Programme Director, Eugene Tng, who is Singapore's first Qualified Autism Services Practitioner.

If you're new to ABA, our guide on what to expect in your child's first ABA therapy session walks you through how it works, and our breakdown of early intervention costs in Singapore can help you plan. You can also read what other families say on our parent stories page.

The People Behind the Award

Awards are given to organisations, but the work is done by people. Our therapists build trust with each child, celebrate the small wins, and keep adjusting until something clicks. Our parents practise strategies on tired evenings and busy weekends. Every bit of progress we see is shared work.

This year has been full of proud moments for our team, from sharing our learning at the Malaysia ABA Conference 2025 to our founder's talk on grit and resilience at his old school. This award is another reminder of why we do what we do.

Thank You

Thank you to Parents World for this recognition, and thank you to every family who has trusted ABA LABS. We'll keep working to deserve that trust, one session and one child at a time.

Frequently Asked Questions

What award did ABA LABS win?

ABA LABS was named Best in Home-Based Therapy and Developmental Support in the Parents World Best Enrichment and Learning Schools 2025 awards in Singapore, and received a Best of the Best distinction in the category.

What is home-based ABA therapy?

Home-based ABA therapy is Applied Behaviour Analysis delivered in your child's own home. Therapists work on communication, play, behaviour and daily living skills during real routines, such as mealtimes, play and getting ready, and coach parents to use the same strategies between sessions.

Is home-based therapy better than centre-based therapy?

It depends on the child. Home-based therapy lets children learn in the place they use their skills every day and makes it easier to involve parents and siblings. Some children also benefit from the structure and peer opportunities of a centre. A good provider will help you weigh the options for your child.

Do you provide home visits across Singapore?

Yes. ABA LABS provides home-based therapy and early intervention for families across Singapore. Get in touch and we will check availability for your area and schedule.
