Cotlands is a registered non-profit and public benefit organisation that has been in operation since 1936. We work across South Africa, empowering and mentoring adults to deliver impactful quality play-based early learning programmes that transform communities. This is accomplished through Early Childhood Care and Education Hubs that integrate centre-based learning, a learning and teaching support materials library (also known as a toy library), an accredited training facility as well as a caregiver-baby/toddler playgroup programme into one community-driven model of excellence.
