This magazine, jointly produced by UNICEF and national partners, brings together practical, evidence-based guidance to support parents and caregivers in their vital role in shaping the earliest years of a child’s life.

It explores key areas of caregiving — including child nutrition, breastfeeding, early learning, positive parenting, and the creation of safe, nurturing home environments — offering knowledge that is both accessible and grounded in proven approaches to child development.

Ultimately, this publication seeks to strengthen the everyday practices that nurture children’s health, growth, and well-being, while advancing more equitable opportunities for every child to realise their full potential and thrive.
