Early Life and Education
Early childhood is a crucial period in children’s development, when they acquire cognitive and social abilities that will guide them throughout school and later life. To guarantee that children get the best care possible during this period, it is essential that they receive quality early care at this critical milestone.
Early childhood education (ECE) refers to both formal and informal educational programs that nurture children during their preschool years (ages birth-five). These can include daycare services, home visits, and pre-school classes.
ECCE can give children the cognitive and social-emotional skills they need to be healthy, contented and successful as adults. It also helps prevent teen pregnancy, crime and delinquency, boost high school graduation rates and reduce adult dependency on welfare benefits.
