ECD Program

“I am very satisfied with my child’s involvement with the S.Aid’ program. She has learned so much in the year she has been there – way beyond my expectations. I thought the children only come here to eat and sleep. The teachers are very helpful in every way and treat my child in a very loving way even though the service is free.  I wish every mother on the street would bring the child here, I will speak to my friends to bring their children here”.

S.Aid’s ECD program serves mothers living in the streets and slums communities of Accra. ; It is a programme for children ages 0-6 years old .

S.Aid operates two ECD centres in Accra providing educational services in a free full-day classroom setting. Mothers are a major component of the program and are encouraged to participate in school activities

An average of 350 children benefit from the services yearly as mothers take advantage of a safe day care, a school feeding programme, and the expectation that their children will be better prepared for formal education.
