The community of Santa Rosa de Ayora (Ecuador) is located twenty minutes outside the nearest town Cayambe and about one hour away from Quito, the capital of Ecuador, by vehicle. Main modes of income for the families who live in this community are working on farms and/or traveling to the capital to seek employment. Because typically, both parents as well as older children must work to maintain livelihood for their families, the younger children of the community must attend a small and understaffed nursery facility not owned by the community. A new, larger community-owned nursery would benefit both the working members of the families and the children.
