Our Story

How it all started

When the lockdown started at the 27th of March 2020, two of our grandchildren lived with us at home. Since my youngest daughter worked in the same day-care where my grandchildren attended, we decided that she is educating our children (her sisters kids) at home. The money we paid for the day care for our two grandchildren she received. She was later when the lockdown eased, joint by her friend Mpho, a qualified ECD teacher.

In mid-July 2020, lockdown 3 of the pandemic, when the day care centres and schools opened again, we found that the day-care my grandchildren attended to was permanently closed.

There the decision was taken to open officially a day-care on our premises. Since I was studying the effects off the 4th industrial revolution it was decided that we don’t want to open an ordinary day-care centre, but one which is future orientated. To equip the children with the best possible chance to prepare them for future study and entrance in an unpredictable job market. More than ever a good quality education is needed the succeed in an uncertain future.

With Mpho in the helm as principal, as she is a qualified ECD practitioner with over 13 years of experience, we officially opened the creche on the 6th of August 2020.

On the 21th January 2021 we registered the day-care as an NPC. The NPO certificate we received 31. May 2021.

In July 2022 Olwethu left as she moved to East Rand to pursue other interests.

In the beginning of July 2021 Kananelo Moleke joint as a volunteer, taking over the babies 3-24 month old. She became a partner in Intelligent kids Daycare in November the same year. She will be teaching the 2 to 3 year old from 2023.

At the 19th of July Tamara joint us to take over the babies 3-24 month old, She is studying child care.
