Nurture Plus
Nurture Plus is an integrated early-childhood development, play and nutrition intervention designed to support children and caregivers within underserved communities. It combines nutrition screening, early childhood development support, responsive caregiving education, and therapeutic play into a single coordinated outreach.
Through Nurture Plus, we aim to identify children at risk of malnutrition, support caregivers with practical knowledge, and create a safe, engaging environment where children can learn, play, and be observed for developmental and health concerns.
Evolved from our annual nutrition initiative, Bags of Joy, Nurture Plus introduces a more comprehensive approach that prioritises both caregiver and child wellbeing.
The Nurture Plus initiative has impacted 1959 children and caregivers in Lagos, Nigeria.
