About
Little Genius Academy offers educational child care services with a creative, age-appropriate curriculum for infants, toddlers, preschool, and Pre-K children. The program uses a carefully planned curriculum where play takes precedence and learning opportunities are presented throughout the day, with planned daily activities and developmentally appropriate materials. The environment is described as bright, clean, and safe, with small classes, low child-to-teacher ratios, and an atmosphere where children feel at home.
• Ages: 0–5 years old
• Schedule: Year-round program with Monday–Friday hours
The Walnut Creek site operates Monday through Friday from 7:30 am to 6:00 pm, and the Danville site operates Monday through Friday from 7:30 am to 5:00 pm, and the program is closed on national holidays listed in its calendar. The program includes infant and toddler facilities as well as preschool, pre-K, and kindergarten, with consistent, comforting, and fun routines that meet the needs of each age group. Little Genius Academy states a strong belief that every child is naturally gifted, focuses on discovering each child’s talents and teaching children how to use them, and teaches in harmony with each child’s natural rhythm and individual nature. The mission of Little Genius Academy is to provide high quality child care, inspire, challenge, and educate.
The program uses positive guidance methods, including clear limits, redirection, modeling, opportunities to make choices, and positive expectations of each child. It also includes planned activities and experiences to develop self-help skills and independence, along with opportunities for everyone to develop, practice, and model happy, healthy behaviors. Resources range from infant and toddler facilities to preschool, pre-K, and kindergarten that serve as steps to guide young students to the entry level of elementary school. The staff is described as experienced, with extensive training in early childcare and education, and the program’s stated goal is to recruit and retain professional teachers dedicated to the hearts and development of young children.
One parent, Dan S., reports having two children who started at Little Genius Academy at 5 months of age and describes the staff as very warm and nurturing, with a lot of stimulating activity. Another parent, Gregory P., describes the Walnut Creek location as a loving, caring environment for younger children and a supportive, rigorous academic and fun environment for older children, and notes that the academy has changed to accommodate children’s needs. A parent named Erin describes the infant care program as excellent, with teachers who were incredibly caring and treated her daughter like an individual, mentioning lots of hugs, laughing, and playing every day, and a director who was very responsive to first-time daycare questions and concerns. A similar testimonial from Dave M. repeats this description of the infant care program, the caring teachers, and the responsive director.
