[Win a Babycation at Capella] Why would-be parents should consider AXA Family Advantage as the insurance plan of choice for your child

Earlier this month, AXA Life Insurance Singapore launched a new campaign, entitled AXA Young Families, to provide targeted protection for the whole family at different life stages, from pregnancy to birth and raising kids. While it is common for kiasu Singaporean parents to sacrifice our time and money on our children, AXA would like to shine a spotlight on (not just the kids) the often-neglected parents:

As a parent to a four-year-old son, I get it.

Getting an insurance plan for my child is not just about shopping for him alone, but it is for the whole family. His healthcare coverage and saving plans affects both my wife and I.

Protection for the Whole Family

As part of their campaign launch, AXA unveiled a first-of-its-kind pre-natal plan package, AXA Family Advantage, to allow couples, when expecting a child, the flexibility to select from 8 different types of protection, savings and investment plans for ourselves to prepare for the responsible role of being parents.

The plan simultaneously offers pre-natal coverage for an expectant mother, and subsequently, when the child is born, the parents can choose to insure the child in a straightforward process with no health questions asked.

Not getting pre-natal coverage for Asher was one of the biggest regret for Rachel and I. On hindsight, we wished someone had given us this piece of advice then.

What I like about the AXA Family Advantage is that it’s a 2-in-1 – both the pregnant mother and your unborn child are covered and your child can continue to be covered based on your choice from the 8 different plans offered later on.

Much thought musts have gone into crafting a plan that integrates seamlessly into a family’s life stages, offering the appropriate kind of protection at the right juncture.

It is almost paternalistic, letting your insurer handhold you and your child through your crucial phases in life:

Recognise the song in the video? It’s 500 Miles by the The Proclaimers, a hit song from the 80s. In the video, it is performed by a choir of daddies.
