Care For Toddlers
When refugee parents find work, what happens to their young children? One of our ministries focuses on providing an answer to just that problem.
Along with providing a safe and nurturing place for toddlers to spend the day, it is an opportunity for these little ones to be fed every day, receive basic medical attention, learn, play, and be loved - needs which are critical to children’s early childhood development.
How We Do That
Food
The first few years of a child’s life are critical in terms of development, so providing nutritious meals is vital to their future.
Each day we ensure that every child in our program receives healthy meals and snacks.
Medical Care
Every child is evaluated by a nurse who provides first aid and basic medical treatment.
Monthly educational meetings are offered for parents to learn how to better care for their children's health.
Education
Even though these toddlers are only in the program for a few years, this time-frame provides an important opportunity.
Keeping their minds stimulated gives them a better chance for future success and resilience.
