Niraamayaa believes that "Our children are not our children, but are the children of life's longing for itself" Its a parent consultancy where we help and guide parents in understanding their children better, to be their advocates and their facilitators. I have worked in various school and hospital settings in Surat, Bangalore and Mumbai. I have run a centre for children with various special needs
based on the Waldorf philosophy called Niraamayaa for four years. I am deeply inspired by the philosophy of Dr Rudolf Steiner, Anthroposophy and Waldorf Education. This experience of over two decades has taught me the importance of working with and empowering parents. Parents do what they do to the best of their awareness. When parents are educated and made aware of their children’s needs and the best practices, they evolve into better parents. I am a published author of two books:
• Parenting-The Art and Science of Nurturing
(Co-authored with Dr. Shekhar Seshadri, NIMHANS)
• The Autism Story (my own spiritual perspective on the purpose of Autism)

I have also co-anchored and co-scripted a sixteen episode radio show on Parenting along with Dr Shekhar Seshadri on Worldspace Satellite Radio
