Our Programs
Our programs include elements of play, engagement, and language and target important developmental skills. They educate the kids with practical and achievable techniques that they can engage in everyday life. Our learning programs are broadly based on the Montessori method that helps children learn and live independently. We have an empathetic and competent team of staff and administrators and maintain a 1:1 student to teacher ratio to ensure every child’s unique mental, emotional, and physical needs are met.
Program outlines and progress are discussed with parents and caregivers to enable them to have meaningful interactions with the children.
Our programs are based on the following techniques
- ABA Principle (Applied Behavior Analysis)
- Floortime
- Speech (Talk Tools)
- Sensory Integration / Occupational Therapy

Find an expert
We believe happy parents make happy children. Our community support program gives access to parents to a panel of experts who work with them individually to help them deal with medical, emotional, psychological and academic needs of the child and enable them to cope with difficult situations.
Volunteer program
We believe working with your hands is therapeutic and welcome volunteers from diverse fields to work with our children on non-academic or extracurricular activities that help develop their talents and learn engagement through different mediums like art and craft, music and dance, computer literacy and introduction to technology, activities of daily life like cooking, baking, gardening etc.
We encourage volunteers to work with us and make a difference in the life of a child.
Advocacy
The limited resources and aid available for people with ASD makes it difficult to create awareness and acceptance in a neurotypical world.
Keeping in line with our mission to enable an ecosystem that empowers people living with autism we are working towards creating awareness and encouraging communities to provide an inclusive environment for them. We look forward to meaningful collaborations with like minded people and organisations to help us in our endeavor.
