About Genius
Our Vision
To be the leading provider of innovative, holistic, and personalised childcare and early education in Australia.
Our Philosophy
The essence of our learning philosophy is strongly based on sociocultural theory, building strong, authentic and respectful relationships with each child and their family to truly understand and support their learning journey. Our philosophy focuses on the holistic nature of children’s learning and sees play as a pathway to learning and discovery.
Our Educators assist your child to develop:
- A strong sense of identity
- Connections with their world
- A strong sense of wellbeing
- Confidence and involvement in their learning
- Effective communication skills
Our Values
Inspire
At Genius, we are committed to fostering holistic development in every child. We strive to be a catalyst for inspiration, engaging not only their intellect but also nurturing emotional, social, and physical well-being. As sustainability advocates, we instil a profound appreciation for the environment and leave a positive footprint. Just as each child inspires us, we dedicate ourselves to evolving alongside them on their unique journey.
Innovate
Innovation is at the core of Genius. From our state-of-the-art centres to our partnerships, unique curriculum programs, ever-evolving practices and the continuous development of both children and staff, we believe in investing in ourselves and those who share our vision. By fostering innovation, we aim to position Genius as the premier destination for learning, working and growing in Australia.
Connect
Genius acknowledges the traditional owners of our land, who inspire us to educate and lead our next generation into a community of reconciliation. We celebrate the rich tapestry of culture, diversity, and identities within our childcare community. Our commitment is to connect deeply with all children, families, staff, and communities, fostering an inclusive environment that embraces and respects each individual.
Create
At Genius, we cultivate a culture built on trust, honesty, and integrity, establishing a warm and inclusive environment where families, educators, children and the wider community come together. This commitment reinforces our belief in the significance of meaningful relationships that extend beyond our immediate circles, creating a network that enriches the overall Genius experience for everyone involved.
Environment and Sustainability
We believe a child’s environment is the key to their learning and development. For this reason, we are committed to presenting Genius children with a naturally-inspired environment that creates wonder, invites exploration, and guides them on their path to self-discovery.
When developing the concept for our Genius centres, it was important that we created spaces that were not just beautiful and peaceful, but also environmentally sound. We endeavour to encourage and support sustainable practices in a number of ways, including the following:
