What inspires us
Growappy was developed after a long period of investigation that involved research, interviews with kindergarten teachers, directors and families, and visits to several schools, from whom we learned a lot and continue to learn about Early Childhood Education and the real needs of the community. Within all the learnings, we highlight the following:
- In childhood, especially in the period from 0 to 5 years, the development of a child in affective, social and physical terms has a direct impact for the rest of his life and most people are not aware of this;
- The resources invested in early childhood education are not aligned with the importance of children's development;
- The role of day care centers and kindergartens, and in particular the educator is underestimated and extremely challenging;
- The close coordination between school and families is crucial to the child's developmental process.
Thus, one of our goals is to transform early childhood education by empowering directors and educators with tools to save time, improve learning outcomes and child development, while educating families about the importance of their work and involvement in their children's growth.
