Children are vulnerable. Their immune systems are still developing, making them more susceptible to illnesses and infections. Proper medical care ensures that they grow physically, mentally, and emotionally as expected.

“I was a single mum struggling to make ends meet, working long shifts at a grocery store, gaining experience. So I could get into my field, a friend introduced me to Childhood Initiatives International for Education and that completely changed the story for us. The staff went with me to meet the teacher. They knew the “right” language and helped me and the teacher begin to understand each other. They helped me understand that my son needed some support and linked us to a speech and language services. I have a baby now and we all still attend Childhood Initiatives International for Education.”
“I was introduced to Childhood Initiatives International for Education by a friend at a time when I was really struggling. My four-year-old son had just started nursery and the school called me every day, he’s crying, he’s not settling, he doesn’t fit, basically he would be better off at home. And then they said he was autistic. I was at my wit’s end. They knew the “right” language and helped me and the teacher begin to understand each other. To cut a long story short, my son got services I did not know he needed, he was NOT autistic and the school learned to respect some cultural differences. I hope that made a difference in the way the school treated other children coming after him. I have a baby now and we all still attend ECDI programs.”
