Pre-school education ( Creches)
 
 

 

   
       
Young children need care in a secure environment while their mothers are at work. Our 128 crèches and balwadis provide this much needed facility to poor families and enable the mothers to work and supplement the family income. While 28 crèches are located in and around Bangalore, the rest are managed by the District Councils at Tumkur, Davangere, , Bijapur, Dharwad, Haveri, Chitradurga, Bellary and Mangalore.
 

 

In each crèche unit, 30 to 35 children are provided day care and pre-school education, which prepare them for admission into formal schools. Mothers meetings are held monthly and are eagerly looked forward to as they provide an opportunity for the working mothers to learn about health and nutrition and the possibilities of vocational training to further their career prospects. Gender issues and the education of female children are topics of discussion. Wherever possible, savings are encouraged through promoting self-help groups.
