Early childhood support ECD centers of the Ndlovu Care Group
Early childhood is a crucial period for shaping a child’s holistic development and creating a foundation for their future. In order for children to reach their full potential, they need health and nutrition, protection from danger and a sense of security. Parents and caregivers who treat them lovingly should provide them with opportunities for early learning through speech, singing and play and encourage them attentively. All this is necessary to support the developing brain and strengthen the growing body.
If children are not given the best start in life, the cycle of poverty and disadvantage continues.
The Ndlovu Care Group has now opened four early education facilities. The long distances that have to be covered on foot make it impossible to operate just one central location. The access barriers for parents and caregivers must be kept as low as possible.
Here, the children receive age-appropriate support and activities based on the “class out of the box” approach. This ensures that the children acquire reading, writing and arithmetic skills appropriate to their age. Sporting activities, regular health checks and a balanced diet are also part of the Ndlovu Care Group’s program.
