Letting Little Ones Grow with Mittsure by focussing on Early Childhood Care and Education

What is ECCE

Full form for ECCE is Early Childhood Care and Education. It focuses on the care and education of a child in the early childhood age range, birth to 6 years. These years are the most crucial years of a child's life when his brain builds the fastest and starts learning how to interact with the world. ECCE is not just about teaching numbers or letters—it’s about helping children grow in every way: mentally, physically, emotionally, and socially. At Mittsure, we’ve taken inspiration from Jaadui Pitara to make growth joyful and natural for every child.

Importance of ECCE

The merit of ECCE would be its ability to shape the future of a child. According to research findings, 85% of a brain is developed in the first 6 years. What the child learns and experiences in these years becomes the basis for how he or she thinks, learns, and behaves later. Why ECCE matters is because

  • It creates an attitude of being curious, creative, and problem-solver in the minds of children.
  • Sharing, befriending, playing with others- all are learnt.
  • Expressions of feelings; develop care towards others; and build confidence.
  • Prepares the Child for School. There's a smooth transition into formal schooling both academically as well as emotionally.

At Mittsure, we believe that Early Childhood Care and Education is not just an education, but a foundation for a brighter future.

ECCE Objectives
