🌍 World Health Day 2025 🌱

Every year on April 7th, we come together to celebrate World Health Day — and this year’s theme is ‘ Healthy Beginnings, Hopeful Futures'.

This year, we’re shining a light on maternal and newborn health — because every child deserves the best start, and every mother deserves care and support.

At Monkey Puzzle, we champion healthy habits from day one — nutritious meals, active play, and nurturing care 💛

Let’s build brighter futures, together.

🌍💙 Today is World Autism Day! 💙🌍

April 2nd is a day to move beyond awareness and embrace acceptance—because understanding, inclusion, and support make all the difference. 

At Monkey Puzzle Day Nurseries, we are committed to creating an environment where Autistic children can thrive. 

Here’s how we can all play a part:
🔹 Be inclusive – Make space for everyone.
🔹 Show kindness, not judgment – Every child’s journey is different.
🔹 Educate yourself – Learn about Autism from the voices that matter.
🔹 Advocate – Support Autistic children and their families in meaningful ways.

Together, we can build a world that embraces neurodiversity and champions acceptance. ❤️
