Our story

Built around the families we serve

Anvi grew out of a simple, stubborn observation: families in Navi Mumbai were travelling long distances for a special educator in one place, an occupational therapist in another and a speech therapist in a third — with nobody holding the whole picture together.

We built a centre where education and therapy sit under one roof and work from one plan. A child’s special educator knows what the occupational therapist did that morning. The speech therapist knows which words the class is working on. Parents get one conversation instead of four.

We work with children who have intellectual disability, autism spectrum disorder, cerebral palsy, Down syndrome, ADHD, specific learning difficulties and speech and language delays — and with those who arrive without any label at all, only a worry.

Our vision

An inclusive world that makes room for every child

To create an inclusive and supportive environment where children with special needs are empowered to develop their abilities, gain independence, and live with dignity as valued members of society.

“A child’s progress is never the school’s work alone. The real classroom is everyday life.”
Our mission

What we work on, every single day

  • Provide quality special education tailored to the individual needs of every child.
  • Promote independence and life skills through functional academics, therapy and vocational training.
  • Encourage emotional, social and physical development in a safe and nurturing environment.
  • Work closely with parents and families to support the holistic development of each child.
  • Create awareness in the community about inclusion and the rights of persons with disabilities.
How we work

Six things we never compromise on

The plan fits the child

No child is fitted into a ready-made syllabus. Goals are written from that child’s assessment and rewritten when they are met.

Parents are partners

Families sit in sessions, learn the techniques and take them home. Nothing is kept behind a closed door.

Dignity, always

We speak to and about every child with respect. No child is described by what they lack.

Progress is recorded

Every session has notes. Parents can see exactly what was worked on and what moved.

Independence is the goal

Academics matter, but the measure of success is what the child can do without us.

Early is better

We never tell a worried parent to wait and watch. Early intervention changes what is possible.
