Children in Crossfire Tanzania currently implements ECD programmes with a particular focus on early learning. We are piloting a new programme to support improved quality and equitable access to ECD/E daycare in high-density low income areas of Dar es Salaam City (Dar). The private market for ECD/E daycare in Dar is thriving especially in the informal economy. Children in Crossfire is supporting these ECD/E daycare centres to improve the quality of early learning provision, support more sustainable profitable business models, and meet minimum regulatory requirements. Importantly, the programme places priority on equitable access to ECD/E daycare.

To this end, we are looking for a consultant team that brings together experience and expertise for a joint consultancy to conduct a situational analysis of the prevailing status of MVC participation in private daycare centres of high-density Dar, and to conduct a scoping study of subsidies and other financial interventions that reduce barriers to uptake of social services in comparative urban market settings, with a view to inform a subsidy pilot for MVC access to private Daycare of high-density Dar.
