The world is an uncertain place, particularly at present. We do not know what the future holds, but we know – We want our children to have the best chance at a bright future.

Important moments in a child´s development occur in the early years when the brain grows quickly. New research continues to show that during this critical window, important neural connections are being made most rapidly at this time. In this early stage of development, children are highly influenced by their environment and the people around them. A host of several factors must be present to ensure children develop optimally – good nutrition and stable and nurturing relationships with adults who care for them, among others. Lack of access to quality early learning opportunities is particularly problematic at this stage. An ecosystem of support is needed!
