      Child Psychologist; Parent and Child Counsellor; Parenting Coach and Educator

      Parenting is not only the toughest job we will ever do but also the most important one! With the ever-growing challenges, parents require all the training and support they can get! I have been conducting parenting workshops, seminars, and e-classes for schools, corporates, private organisations, and individuals since 2001. I also do individual counselling for parents and children. I have also written various parenting articles for the magazine "Parent and Child" as well as for rediff.com and theswaddle.com. Currently, I am working on a few books and also write for my blog on www.onlyparenting.com as well as articles on Linkedin. Show less

      Feb 2009 - now
      Book Club Co-ordinator and Leader

      Creative Reading is a book club for children - 6.5 year olds to 14 year olds - different batches as per the age. All the kids in a batch read the same book and we discuss it in class as well as do an activity related to the book, be it drama, debates, artwork, or creative writing. The main focus is on expanding the children’s imagination, getting them to think and express what they are reading, exposing them to different genres of books and most of all inculcate a love for reading!
