The GEMS of Early Childhood is built around a set of distinguishing features that elevate it far
beyond traditional parenting programmes:

• Accredited, Expert-Led Training: From infant first aid to baby brain development and
mental health awareness, every session is led by qualified professionals using the latest
research and global best practices.

• Practical, Real-Life Tools: Parents and nannies receive actionable resources including,
infant nutrition guides, sleep strategies and communication development content, that they
can apply immediately at home.
• Inclusive, Culturally-Aware Support: Designed for diverse family backgrounds and needs,
all resources are accessible, bilingual, and designed to promote community and
connection.

“The GEMS of Early Childhood is about meeting families where they are – and walking with them
every step of the way,” said Sarah O’Regan. “This is not a one-size-fits-all approach. It’s personal,
practical, and deeply rooted in science and compassion. We’re building a village – a place where
every parent feels supported, every question is welcome, and every child can thrive.”

The launch of the initiative will follow a two-phase roadmap from now through December 2025.
Highlights include:

• Phase 1 (April–July 2025): Branding, ambassador engagement, and development of
bilingual, accredited training content.
• Phase 2 (September, 2025): Our flagship launch, Elite Training for Nannies, is a premium 9-
module course crafted to elevate care standards across the region. From the fundamentals
of childhood nutrition to embedding healthy sleep routines and unlocking the power of
purposeful play, each module empowers nannies with the knowledge and confidence to
help children truly thrive.
• Phase 2 (August–December 2025): The Early Childhood Oasis at WSO opens with a full
calendar of events, including parenting classes, drop-in wellbeing support, and
connections with healthcare and SEND specialists. Data collection and feedback will
shape future scaling.

The initiative has already attracted the attention of leading voices in early years development and
family health.

As a global education pioneer, GEMS Education continues to expand the boundaries of what
schooling can – and should – be. The GEMS of Early Childhood is its latest step in ensuring that
children, and the families who nurture them, are set up not just to succeed – but to flourish.
