About
Brainy Bears offers literacy programs to children in the Melton area, aimed at giving them the best start to their learning.
Aligned with the Early Years Learning Framework and the Victorian Curriculum, our programs allow children aged 3-8, to become confident and happy learners. We focus on developing essential foundational skills for reading, writing, and spelling. We offer a multi-sensory phonemic awareness/phonics program where children come together in small groups to have fun, make friends, and support each other through their learning.
At Brainy Bears, we also offer reading intervention for students in Prep-Year 4. Many children find reading difficult and it is not their fault. In a safe and supportive environment we provide quality small group intervention to help struggling readers get back on track.
Brainy Bears is run by an enthusiastic and passionate school teacher, Jessica Mounsey. Clever Cub, Brainy Bear and Gifted Grizzly are our main characters and they welcome everyone into their learning space.

Testimonials
"Whenever we just talk casually she will automatically tell me what sounds words start with now and she will go around blending words. It makes her super happy and proud."
-Eden
"We think Brainy Bears is amazing! My daughter had so much fun learning with Jess and learning all the different sounds. She has just started prep and her teacher has commented on her confidence in reading and writing."
- Liz
"After the first 3 weeks with Jessica, we already noticed a massive change in our son's attitude towards reading. His confidence exploded and he was applying all the strategies he learned. He still has a long way to go but I know that with the support of Jessica at Brainy Bears our son will grow into a confident and successful reader!"
- Amanda
