As part of the SMILE Project, a follow-up activity for mothers and babysitters was conducted in Salamieh, targeting young children aged 0–3 years and their caregivers. The activity engaged 10 children (4 girls and 6 boys) in Early Childhood Development (ECD) activities, while mothers and babysitters received training on ECD concepts and best practices to support healthy early development at home. This intervention aimed to strengthen caregivers’ knowledge and skills, enhance parent–child interaction, and promote age-appropriate care and stimulation for young children.
This activity is a part of the Sustainable Models for Improved Learning Environments (SMILE) project, which ensures access to early childhood development services in places that suffer from low-quality services, by preparing a community place with qualified staff to ensure the provision of services in a sustainable manner in the selected area. This activity is funded and implemented by AKF.
