I have definitely seen a change in my daughter. She is so much more confident! I was zapped at the way she presented during a LIVE workshop!

Mother of 10-year-olds Ayaan and Yuvaan
For me, Parentof is winning with the small additions I see added in my child’s life every week. Just the suggestion of removing 2-3 items from his diet brought so much change. The sessions are tailor-made for my son. I’m extremely happy. We have even signed up our second child for this!

Bipin and Priya Panikkar
The best part of the program is that they make children think out of the box. It’s something you do not find in a typical school environment. My son is also learning to be consistent and punctual here. I am delighted and grateful to the team as they teach very unique skills to the kids.

Divyarani
Mother of 9-year-old Allan
I had reached out to Parentof mostly concerning my son’s bad handwriting and anger issues. He would not listen to anything I said and even his teachers were very unhappy with him. Parentof has exceeded all my expectations. I am so happy today with how Allan is doing. I urge you to try this for your children too. In the end, isn’t their improvement all we want?
