Caregiving plays an essential part in early childhood care and education. It highlights the concept of Responsive Caregiving by emphasising how "care" & "caregivers" are synonyms!  Responsive Caregiving is the ability of the caregiver to notice, understand, and respond to their child’s unique needs in a timely and appropriate manner. While there is a  lot of research that establishes the significance of responsive caregiving, have you ever wondered what this truly looks like in the everyday lives of a family? Especially in a country as diverse as India? 

That’s why we embarked on a beautiful journey to capture responsive caregiving practices across families. In this journey, we learn about each family's story within their unique contexts and get a glimpse of talk, care and play in action! Come, let’s meet the families!
