The first 2000 days of a child’s life – the time during which their ability to learn, grow, develop and thrive – can be profoundly affected by the quality of the care, nutrition and education they receive. Ajuga provides high-quality infrastructure to create an environment that addresses these needs. Through partnerships with non-profit organisations, the necessary training and support for teaching staff ensures that children are well developed in social, cognitive and motor skills.
Children who get a “Healthy Start to Life” in the 1st 2000 days and beyond are:
10 times more likely to overcome life threatening childhood diseases
More likely to complete nearly five more grades in school
More likely to go on to earn 21% more in wages as adults
More likely to have healthier families of their own
At Ajuga, children learn and play in a safe, fun environment. They receive two meals daily and are nurtured by well-trained teachers, all of which ensures these children’s well-being.
More than 7 million children need access to early childhood development education
In some circumstances, it’s just tougher to meet children’s basic needs
Our children deserve a better future
