Meet new student Bethzabeth, age 4. Bethzabeth is an only child and lives with her mother and father. Her mother says that Bethzabeth especially looks forward to playing with her classmates.
Bethzabeth's mother works as a housekeeper and her father works in a clinical laboratory. Before attending the Center, her mom would have to bring Bethzabeth to work with her, which naturally became more complicated as Bethzabeth got older. She was so grateful to be able to bring her to an environment where she could learn, play with other children and be fed nutritious meals.
During her first months at the Center, Bethzabeth learned to eat a variety of new foods, especially different types of fruits and atoles (a hot drink made made from corn and milk). Most of the time she asks for two to three portions, which has been significant for improving her growth and development.
Because of your generosity, the Acorn Childcare Center is able to give young students like Bethzabeth a safe caring environment and a better start to their education. Thank you!
