INDIA’S CHILD DEVELOPMENT SYSTEM GETS A RESET: TYKES VALLEY EMERGES AS A NATIONAL MODEL



India’s fragmented child-development ecosystem—long criticized for scattered assessments, inconsistent therapy methods, and outdated systems—is undergoing a silent revolution. At the center of this disruption is Tykes Valley, a next-gen pediatric development platform redefining how therapy, assessment, and early education work in the country.

Founded not as a business idea but out of frustration with the broken state of child development care, Tykes Valley rebuilt the system from scratch.

Their model introduces standardized assessments, structured therapy pathways, unified clinical protocols, and a digital data layer—creating consistency and predictability across every center.

The tech-powered network is now scaling aggressively, supported by Talrop's ecosystem. Parents across cities describe the experience as “the clarity the sector needed,” with real-time progress tracking, early identification, and measurable outcomes.

The founders, both occupational therapists, bring clinical depth and lived experience into the mission:

Niyaz K.T, COO, whose journey shifted after witnessing advanced rehabilitation in Dubai and the lack of it in India, drives operational systems and therapist performance.

Fithil C.T, CEO, who chose to stay in India despite global opportunities, built the clinical backbone and is now shaping Tykes Valley’s future with AI-driven therapeutic automation.

With expansion across India and the GCC underway, Tykes Valley is no longer just a therapy center—it is becoming India’s first structured child development infrastructure, and a blueprint for global standards.
