dc.description.abstractThis study investigates how the COVID-19 pandemic affected nurturing care for young children in Nairobi's informal settlements. Through five rounds of telephone surveys with caregivers, the research highlights significant disruptions in health services, nutrition, early learning, and caregiver well-being. Economic hardship was widespread, contributing to challenges in meeting children's developmental needs. The findings emphasize the urgent need for targeted support to protect vulnerable families during and after public health crises.
