Sparkles Child Development Centre provides excellent adult counselling services. The sessions are conducted in a calm, safe, and non-judgmental environment, which makes it easy to open up and speak freely.

The counsellors are empathetic, professional, and attentive. They listen patiently, help in understanding thoughts and emotions clearly, and guide with practical strategies that are easy to apply in daily life. The sessions have been very helpful in managing stress, improving emotional well-being, and gaining better clarity and confidence.

I am truly grateful for the support received and would highly recommend Sparkles to anyone seeking professional and compassionate adult counselling support.

Very happy with Sparkles!

Sparkles School & Child Development Center has been a great place for the child. The teachers and therapists are very caring, patient, and friendly. They really understand each child and give personal attention instead of treating everyone the same. We have seen good improvement in the child’s confidence, communication, and daily skills after joining here.

The environment is calm, clean, and child-friendly, which makes children feel comfortable and happy. The staff also explains things clearly to parents and gives proper guidance. Overall, Sparkles is a trustworthy place and I would strongly recommend it to any parent looking for genuine care and support for their child.

As a parent, visiting Sparkles School & Child Development Centre, Kakkanad gave me a strong sense of reassurance. The environment is calm, welcoming, and thoughtfully designed for children with special needs.

What truly stands out is their personalised approach to special education and therapy, especially for children with autism, ADHD, and developmental challenges. The team is skilled, patient, and genuinely caring, focusing on the child as an individual rather than a diagnosis.

The therapists and educators work with clear goals while keeping parents informed and supported throughout the process. Sparkles is more than a centre—it’s a nurturing space where children grow in confidence and are encouraged to shine at their own pace. Highly recommended for parents seeking compassionate and professional care.

recently visited this clinic for a hearing check-up as I had issues for a few days. They did proper tests, explained my condition clearly, and also counselled me about the risks of high headphone usage on hearing. The staff were very polite, the hospitality was excellent, and the overall service was truly satisfying. I would recommend this clinic to anyone with hearing concerns.

I visited Sparkles recently to catch up with a friend. I was impressed the way the school has been set up

What makes it different from other similar centres I have visited is its greenery and pleasant atmosphere with lots of fresh air. Therapy rooms are spacious and well equipped. Outdoor play areas, ample parking space. You won’t feel like you are in the middle of a busy city.
