MC initiated an intervention in the lives of children at a time when there was no buzz around Child Rights or malnutrition. And little understanding of the overlapping concerns of children, women and workers. MC developed a model for childcare, for young children of marginalised communities, in the form of day care centres at a place of work, a construction site, in a settlement, or in an urban slum.

A Day in the Life of a Day Care Centre
The hub of all activity is the Centre, built at each construction site, or housed in a community centre in the slums. Brick walls and a tin roof is all we need, at first, to house our crèche, balwadi and classroom.
