How Day Care Pricing Works
Full-day rate is our published RM2,500/month residential rate divided evenly across a 30-day month; half-day is priced at roughly half. Your exact rate is confirmed after a free assessment, and may vary with specific care needs or add-ons.
Per-day or monthly
Choose a per-day rate for occasional visits, or a monthly package if your loved one attends regularly — whichever suits your family's routine.
Half-day or full-day
Pricing reflects whether you choose a half day or a full day, plus any add-ons like transport or extra therapy sessions.
Confirmed after a free assessment
Because needs vary, we confirm your exact rate after a short, free assessment — no obligation, and no surprises once you decide.

A gentle first step
Day care gives your loved one company, care and purpose during the day — and gives you the freedom to work, knowing they're safe. It's also a low-commitment way to experience Genesis first-hand. Many families start here, and move to residential care with the same trusted team when the time comes.
