Sunshine Child Development Center - Pune

Sunshine celebrates sports day Dec 21 2019. Our kids surprised us. They are indeed special to us. The show was flawless and so well planned. HATS OFF TO THE SUNSHINE TEAM HIP HIP HURRAY

Hello parents, Myself, Dr Bhargava, a Pediatrician qualified in special education from University of North Texas, USA. I had sent my son here in October 2019. The owner, Ms Tejaswita lied about her school fee and overcharged us thousands of rupees. When we discovered the truth and confronted her on this issue, she refused to refund and stated she will continue overcharging us as long as our son attended her school. We were forced to withdraw to stop further loss and because of other serious issues. We also lost the 10000 admission fee she has taken from us . Besides being a woman of greed, she is also extremely insensitive and ignorant about issues related to special needs kids. My little boy suffered from serious sleep issues and consequently reached late by few minutes, he also traveled 18+ km to reach the school. She mercilessly slammed doors in his face and refused to let him in, in name of ‘discipline’. Despite overcharging us she conveniently got rid of my child and her responsibility by refusing to have him for remaining 6 hrs at school. She barely permitted him for 10 days a month despite the hefty payment she was charging us. The place is unhygienic, lacks proper infrastructure and safety for special needs kids. Teachers are untrained for special education. There is no playground for kids development. Children are crowded in vans and made to go to Jumping Gorilla for sports, if parents agree to pay extra fee. There is no transparency. Parents questions and suggestions are ignored. Teachers and trainers slap and ear pull kids and Ms Tejaswita defends such issues rather than checking them. There are no CCTV cameras to ensure accountability of staff and teachers even though kids can’t communicate. For three months, no IEP was made, no goals were set, no therapies were provided to my son. Everyone reading please see screenshots posted by me regarding our discussion with her on fee issue. Please see how she speaks lies after lies, to confiscate our money, she intentionally charged us Rs 15000 per month while charging every one else 11000. She came up with an absurd old students vs new student story to justify her felony. She did not have the good sense to realize that when fee structure gets revised it gets revised for all students alike old and new. In her later message, in one of her groups, she herself stated that her fee for everyone is Rs 11000, and it has never been revised, unaware of our presence in that group. Can a woman with such low greed for money do any justice to special needs kids? She chose to take advantage of the limited options that parents with special needs kids have. Yes, Dr Tejaswita, your felony and malpractices are common voice among autism community and my writing of your review is a very informed act based on my qualifications and strong sense of ethics. From my busy schedule I have extracted time to expose you because I owe it not only to my child, but to every other child out there, who is exploited by you and likes of you

It is the best school which I ever seen, who can give a lots of love, happiness and confidence to our children. I am very satisfied with them to enroll my child there.

It's the best school for special needs, we have been a part of this school since 6 years. Our child has only n only progressed. He has been suprising us with all that he has learnt at school, it only proves that our kids are not at all different from Neurotypical. It's the best school in Pune for sure

Sunshine has been a sunshine into the life of my daughter and since then she is a regular member of Sunshine family. Along with love and care , proper nurturing, guidance, discipline and most importantly living like a normal human being is what i have seen all through the years here.

Nice school and very good staff. I would like to Thank You all for organizing the sleepover party for the kids. Really appreciate your efforts. We saw childerns are very happy and enjoyed the party. Thanks again! Keep it up ?

My son is in this school for more than 5 years and I have seen the dedication and efforts from the staff including the maushis..My son who has a very strong opinion of choices loves this school wholeheartedly..Every day the smile on his face gives me the assurance that he is happy and safe in sunshine.. let me tell you special children are more vocal with their eyes regarding any discomfort in the environment and I have seen only happiness in my son's eyes when he daily enters the school.

Sunshine school is not only school but it's the place where I can believe blindly. Really very very very nice place where our child develop beyond our expectations. All days are in school are something new learning for kids. And Yes ...Tejaswita madam (principal of school) is just amazing. The way she is managed everything with kids I can't express in words. Really feeling lucky to have my kid in Sunshine. And On 11th December there is Sleepover party was arranged...and it was funtastic. Everyone was enjoyed Party along with lots of games, snacks, movie and many more. Being parents of Special kid I must say, becouse of Sunshine my son development is very good.
