Mobile Creches For Working Mothers Children

Mobile Creches (MC) is committed to ensuring that marginalised children across India have access to quality Early Childhood Development (ECD). Its mission focuses on accelerating access to quality ECD by nurturing sustainable ecosystems that empower families, communities, and care workers.

Major Interventions:

Quality Childcare Services: MC operates a robust ECD model based on the Nurturing Care Framework and aligned with national policies. It operates and supports thousands of childcare centres across various worksites, urban slums, and rural communities, providing nutrition, healthcare, early learning, and responsive caregiving. The centres address the needs of children under six, with a particular focus on under-threes. Through these services, MC enables working mothers to participate in the workforce with peace of mind, knowing their children are in safe, nurturing environments.

Parenting Programmes (Dulaar): It builds parenting capacity through community-based interventions. It empowers parents, especially in vulnerable communities, to provide responsive, gender-sensitive care. Parents are supported through home visits, peer groups, and connections to welfare schemes. It also raises awareness on early stimulation, nutrition, and equal parenting roles.

Community Engagement: MC engages local stakeholders, including parents, Panchayats, employers, and government officials, to create a supportive ecosystem for children. Through events, awareness campaigns, and community committees, MC fosters local ownership of childcare solutions. These efforts ensure long-term sustainability and amplify demand for quality ECD services.

Capacity Building: MC invests deeply in training ECD workers from within marginalised communities. It provides extensive in-service and pre-service training for creche workers, supervisors, and partners. This workforce development ensures consistent care quality and empowers women through dignified employment.
