If you are divorced and your children take turns to live with you and your former spouse, this can continue, but you should do your best to limit movement;
The government has posted an FAQ to address concerns over the circuit breaker measures. These are the exceptions listed.
You should not leave the house except:
To work for or with an essential service provider, specified schools or early childhood development centres;
To send your child to childcare if you and your spouse work for an essential service provider;
To get essential goods and services like buying groceries, cutting hair or doing laundry;
To exercise alone or with others you live with in green or open spaces;
To seek medical help for suspected COVID-19 infection or other urgent treatment;
To provide assistance to seniors (60 years and above) or persons with disability;
To seek or render help in an emergency;
To comply with the law (eg. court order);
To report for National Service;
To move house;
To leave Singapore;
You are not allowed to visit another household except:
To deliver essential goods or services;
Provide assistance to a senior or person with disabilities;
Seek or render emergency help;
Other exceptions:
Hawkers, taxi drivers and food delivery riders can eat in public, but they must eat alone or with a 1m spacing from the next person;

Grandparents can continue to care for grandchildren if 1) both parents are essential service workers, 2) if one parent is a healthcare professional or 3) if one parent is an essential service worker and the child is under 3 years old.
If not, grandparents can still continue to care for grandchildren they stay together during the circuit breaker period. You should not drop them off on a daily basis as that increases the risk of transmission;
You can continue to accompany your elderly parent to medical appointments but must take precautions like wearing a mask and maintaining good personal hygiene;
If you have an elderly neighbour who needs help, you can help out but try to avoid physical interaction. E.g. You can drop off groceries at their door;
You can engage emergency household services (e.g. plumbers, electricians, locksmiths, etc) but must maintain social distancing.
