An Early Childhood Development (ECD) creches, young children, usually aged between 2 and 6, learn, grow and play before they start formal school. These creches provide a safe environment where they learn basic skills like counting and the alphabet, and develop socially by interacting with other children. The ECD creches also provide meals and care, helping to support the overall well-being of the children. The goal is to help them get ready for school and build a strong foundation for their future learning.
