DENIV’S JOURNEY

“With a heart full of gratitude we, the family of Deniv Malla, would like to extend our sincerest thanks to your wonderful centre.

Two years ago, when Deniv joined Kriti Children’s Centre for Learning and Development he could hardly speak a word. Today, thanks to your love, patience, and incredible guidance,after spending two beautiful years with you, we are so happy and surprised to see him speaking clearly and confidently. His learning journey has completely transformed not only in speech but also in his behavior, discipline, and ability to connect with new people with ease and joy.

We are beyond thankful for the positive changes you have brought into Deniv’s life. You have truly laid a strong foundation for his future, and we will always remember this as one of the best decisions we ever made for him.

Thank you for being the light in our son’s learning path. We will always be grateful.”

“After my child was diagnosed with Speech and Motor Delays, my journey started. Just like every other parent, it was tough and challenging; I was clueless. But it was not impossible!

Fortunately, I got to know about KCC. I am so grateful to the KCC team for helping me understand more about children's developmental milestones and how learning can happen through play. The KCC team is very supportive and their guidance has encouraged both me and my daughter. I got lots of ideas to try at home (even DIY ideas). We have learned together. Now, Preesha has improved a lot, her skills are getting better day by day.

Thank you KCC for shaping my child's future. For all those parents who will be reading this, thank you for your time. A small effort can make a big difference!"
