Gentle Funeral Arrangements for the Loss of a Baby or Infant
There is no single way a family should say goodbye after the loss of a baby. Some parents prefer a private arrangement with only immediate family present. Others want a wake so grandparents, relatives and close friends have time to gather, pay their respects and support one another.
Our role is to listen first. We explain the available arrangements clearly, help your family decide what feels appropriate, and then coordinate the practical work. You do not need to have every decision made before calling us.
Farewell Funerals supports families through miscarriage, stillbirth and neonatal loss. Funeral arrangements can also be adapted for Buddhist, Taoist, Christian, Muslim, Hindu, Freethinker and other traditions, as well as families who do not want religious rites.
You can call before deciding on a package. If you are unsure what needs to happen next, tell us the circumstances and what your family is considering. We can explain the practical options without asking you to make every decision immediately.
Baby & Infant Funeral Options in Singapore
The existing service offers two main arrangements: a private direct cremation from $680 or a wake service from $4,000. The right choice depends on how your family wants to say goodbye and whether you want relatives and friends to gather before the final farewell.
Private Direct Cremation
A simple and private arrangement without a public wake. The package covers collection, care of the baby, necessary documentation support and cremation, allowing the family to keep the farewell small and personal.
Discuss This OptionBaby or Infant Wake
A wake gives family and friends time to gather and say goodbye. Rites and arrangements can be coordinated according to your family's religion or without religious rites. The final price depends on religion, wake duration and venue.

What Affects the Cost of a Baby or Infant Wake?
A direct cremation has a simpler structure, while a wake is arranged around the family's individual requirements. The existing page identifies three main factors that affect wake pricing.
Religion
Different faiths can require different rites, officiants and coordination. The arrangements are adapted to your family's religious tradition or can be kept non-religious.
Number of wake days
Wakes are commonly arranged over 1 to 3 days. The duration affects the venue, setup and practical requirements of the funeral.
Wake venue
A void deck wake has different permit and tentage requirements from an indoor funeral parlour or home arrangement, so the venue can affect the final price.
As a guide, the current page lists a 3-day HDB void deck wake from $4,000. For an exact quote, tell us your family's religion, preferred wake duration and venue.
Funeral Arrangements for Different Religions and Beliefs
Families may want traditional rites, a church or temple-led farewell, a simple prayer, or no religious ceremony at all. Our baby and infant funeral services can be planned around those wishes rather than forcing every family into the same format.
The existing service information covers Buddhist, Taoist, Christian, Muslim, Hindu, Freethinker and other traditions. Where an officiant, temple, church or other faith-specific coordination is needed, the requirements can be discussed before the wake arrangement is confirmed.
