Tiny Totos Kenya's social enterprise model transforms urban daycare network in disadvantaged communities

FacebookTwitterLinked In

Start Date: 30/09/2018- End Date: 31/03/2021


Most of the informal daycares in Kenya's underprivileged communities are squalid and not fit-for-purpose. Tiny Totos Kenya is a registered social enterprise working with these informal daycares to improve conditions to create safe, secure and stimulating environments for children. Tiny Totos provides training, technical and financial support to help providers build a sustainable business model, and support centre partners build network infrastructure, and grow their parent-client base, to ensure financially viability in the long-term.
