Care for Child Development (C4CD) Plus: A pilot project for 3-5 year old children

Save the Children, in partnership with the Ministry of Health of Bhutan,  implemented an innovative intervention to provide a quality parenting program which is “The Care for Child Development Program (C4CD) Plus”. The program aims to empower parents and caregivers of 3-5 years-old children with the skills to engage children in early literacy and math activities, enhance responsive caregiving, and practice better health and nutrition routines through monthly group sessions conducted by trained health workers.

This report presents the salient findings of a randomized control trial designed to test the impact of the intervention on children’s learning and development as well as behaviour change in caregivers.
