Work Life Balance at IBM
It is a serious endeavor at IBM to carry out the work-life balance IBM offers its employees. Work-life balance initiatives is a way to thank IBM employees who contribute to IBM business goals and only cements the commitment towards making IBM the most preferred employer in the country.
Geniekids responded to IBM Global Work Life Fund's specific needs by providing, designing and delivering programs tailored to meet the needs of busy family and work styles of our employees.
Geniekids' parenting workshops were insightful and lead parents to practical and effective strategies for working with their children thereby creating meaningful work-life balance in families. We plan to continue working with Geniekids to provide ongoing services as may be applicable to our needs in the future.RituBhati, HR Partner – IBM Global Service Delivery Center -

Meaningful Learning
The Genie Kids program responds to the needs of busy families and works with corporations to customize specific programs for children and their parents. Their program meets the needs of families and provides a solution for working parents. WFD Consulting of Boston worked with Genie Kids to provide special programs for IBM through the IBM Global Work Life Fund. Children who attend the holiday and summer programs have fun and achieve academic excellence through meaningful learning and hands-on activities. Workshops educate parents about the latest theories, newer methodologies, and various techniques for learning."

Parenting Paradigm shift
Simple tips leading to paradigm shift.
It does not focus on giving solutions,but makes each one of us think to deal with our own solutions.Ms Sharmishthanath(Parent) -
Touchy
It was quite an useful seminar (Preparing Children Sexually). I could find out how little I know about talking to kids on this touchy subject. Although my wife & I wanted to attend this together, she couldn't join this due to some personal reasons. I shared with my wife about the session and she was quite interested too. Please convey my appreciation to Ms. Aditi.

It was nice being in your session Saturday. I have
been an ardent reader of your articles in the news
letters and it has definitely helped me in enhancing
my parenting skills. -
Aware
It made me aware of my own inhibitions and how I am unconsciously passing that on, although I discuss many other things.
I felt that it did not help me in "How" I deal with the questions / areas, it made me open up on what.
I feel something which is more "situations" scenes which can help us work through how we respond will be useful... That will help us in thinking through our responses and pushing us more.Minakshi Prabhu -
Quality Life
It has been wonderful experience to know things and discover in innovative ways suggested by you. I believe yr presentation has awakened and inspired me to explore the new ways to do things with kids ( by enjoying that "quality life" of each minute) and allowing them their due "space" to grow with many traits of being successful in life.
I appreciate yr presentation style and contents therein.Kumar Narender (workshop at Motorola) -
POWER OF Talking
i would really like to thank geniekids for making me realise the power of talking to children. Initially I used to be think talking will not make any difference with children. But then i thought let me give it a try and I realsied it was helping me.
But I really realised the importance of how talking was helping me personally when My son of 3years had to go in for a
CT scan. The doctors told me you need to put him to sleep or give him a slight sedative for which I just asked them give me 5 mins.With my child in the CT scan room and believe me I was scared seeing those instruments but i made up my mind to be strong and showed him the machine and explained to him what the doctors are going to do to the point. My little one only asked me "Mama I should not move thats it".
I was really happy that one hurdle was solved. My little one for the 5 mins that he was under scan kept still but closed his eyes also. The doctors were also surprised

Harmony
The handout I got in this session has been very useful – while I didn’t really have any “behavior problems” with my son, it has helped me understand how to get along more harmoniously (not sure how to word this better!!) with him. Actually a lot was relevant to behavior in general and it has helped me get along better in my day to day interactions. The key to implementing the tips is to be relaxed – easier said than done of course – looking forward to a session on that. Another thing I try with Pranay is explain to him how good behavior helped him (in some situation) - he is quick to apply it in other situations. Thanks again for a wonderful session!!-Santrupta

eye opener
By Mail
This was an extraordinary session for me. The presentation was lucid and very useful for new parents as well as for others, too. It generated a lot of questions in mind, and at the end we realized that we need a guidance instead of guiding child actually. I should attend any of these find of this workshop in future, too. Many thanks Genie-kids.Tarakranjan
