genukids – Childcare at genua

Family Oriented Pedagogical Concept

The day-care center offers parents comprehensive childcare with highest standards in education and age-appropriate development, a pleasant atmosphere and healthy nutrition.

genukids is based on a design developed by genua that is oriented towards the needs of everyone involved. Focus here is on a pedagogical concept that is implemented by specialists. The all-day center thereby meets the needs of the families and those of their employer. Quality and economic viability are reviewed and ensured by us. The entire municipality of Kirchheim likewise benefits from additional childcare places.

In our day-care center, we work across all age groups, which means that our three groups mix together with one another to promote the social interaction of the children. In addition, we work with the situation-oriented approach and place special emphasis on the promotion and development of basic skills.

Our qualified personnel support and encourage the children together with two individuals who are completing their year of voluntary social service, the Federal Volunteers Service of the German government or with socio-pedagogical seminar interns. We place great importance here on a high ratio of staff to children to meet the needs of children and parents alike.

Opened in 2009: genua Employees Expressed a Desire for Childcare

A survey conducted at genua in 2008 surprised us: even though 81% of our staff is male, there was a desire for a professional and work-friendly childcare option.

On account of this survey, we did some research – and learned that, through the Bavarian Child Education and Care Act (BayKiBiG), financial assistance is also available even when the supporting organization is a company. After submitting an application to the Kirchheim municipality, the acknowledgement of a need was approved and we could start planning our day-care center. From the negotiations with politicians, authorities and craftsmen to the construction work, personnel recruitment and finally the opening of the doors, genua managed the day-care center project completely on its own.

The genukids day-care center offers space for 35 children

Since opening, our genukids team generally supervises 35 children aged three months to twelve years. There are three age-spanning groups. Available places are divided according to age groups: 6 after-school places, 12 kindergarten places, 16 nursery places.

What's special: Our day-care center is available not only to the children of our employees but also to children from the municipality of Kirchheim as well as other guest municipalities.
