About Genius Childcare Altona North

Welcome to Genius Childcare Alton North!

We are conveniently located for families living in Altona North, Altona, Seaholme, Laverton North, Sunshine West, Brookly and Tottenham.

Genius Childcare Alton North is a homely early learning centre that offers early education and care for children aged 6 weeks to 6 years old. We have an amazing team of passionate teachers and educators. Our team is dedicated to ensuring every child feels safe, nurtured and inspired throughout their education journey. From planning adventure-filled experiences to building children’s self-confidence and resilience, right up until a child’s transition to ‘ big school’. 

Children and teachers grow and learn together, in our resource-rich learning environments. Our centre boasts engaging outdoor spaces including three separate play spaces consisting of bike tracks, sandpits, cubby houses, slides, climbing wall, garden beds and lots of native plants. Our outdoor play experiences provide children an opportunity to explore, discover and appreciate the natural world, as well as be active, strengthen fine and gross motor movement skills, test physical limits and get messy. 

Our team

The quality of our centre is underpinned by the quality of our people. We invest in our valued educators, teachers and leaders so they can nurture, empower and support each child on their individual learning journey. We have a culturally diverse team of educators. Some of the languages that are spoken amongst the educators include Indian, Italian, Vietnamese and Lebanese. We have a longstanding team of educators with the team having between 6 - 15 years of experience in the centre collaborating and establishing positive relationships with all children and families at the centre.

We know each child is an individual with unique talents and interests. Our team is passionate about their profession and truly wants your child to succeed in discovering their identity as confident, happy and resilient learners. Parents receive daily updates and photos detailing their child's learning and development from our easy-to-use parent App. 

Partnering with families 

Relationships are key to delivering the best possible learning opportunities for your child. Our Educators and teachers develop strong bonds with the children and their families. We view a child's early education as an extension of the learning occurring at home. Therefore,  we believe a successful early learning journey needs a good partnership. We pride ourselves on working together with our families to achieve the best possible outcomes for their child. We welcome your involvement and that Involvement will look different for different families.

Exploring the community

We offer a range of experiences to help children learn about their local community. We often have visits from community services to help expand the children’s learning. We also have excursions to the local coffee shop, local sporting complex, local park and local primary school to assist our Kindergarten/ Preschool children with their transition to ‘big school’.

Absolutely love this centre, the educators are kind and caring and the children have a lot of fun each day being involved in lots of exciting and educational play based activities. The food is fresh and the menu is rotated so it doesn’t get boring, we wouldn’t go anywhere else, highly recommend.
