Dr Jaya Bhavsar, hailing from Udaipur, is the esteemed Co-founder and
Director of Sankalp. With a Bachelor’s degree in physiotherapy from 2008, she
has chosen a specialized path as a Paediatric Physiotherapist. Additionally,
Dr. Jaya is an accomplished Access Consciousness Bars Practitioner and
Facilitator.
Her dedication towards children with disabilities became apparent when she
pursued intensive training in subjects like Early Intervention, Augmentative
and Alternative Communication, Vision and Cerebral Palsy, and educational
elements from Vidya Sagar, Chennai, in 2009. She further honed her expertise
with a course on “Intervention for Young Children with Vision Impairments“, a
a collaborative effort by Vidya Sagar and Perkins School for the Blind, USA, in
2011.
Certifications and training adorn her professional journey. She is a certified
Neuro Development Therapist (NDT) and has gained expertise in sensory
integration therapy. Her quest for knowledge has led her to various advanced
courses in pediatric rehabilitation, as well as training in ABA (Applied
Behaviour Analysis), Theratog fitting, Total Motion Release TMR Tots, and DIR
Floortime Therapy.
Always on the lookout for the latest in pediatric rehabilitation, Dr. Jaya's
unwavering commitment has propelled Sankalp to its commendable position
today. Her journey, she fondly reminisces, was made possible due to the
unyielding support of her mother, Ms. Rajul Padmanabhan (Director, Vidya
Sagar, Chennai), and Dr. Ruchi. With a vision to disseminate her profound
knowledge, Dr. Jaya aims to expand Community-Based Rehabilitation
Programme and professional training.
For her, Sankalp isn’t just an institution; it’s a solace, a place where all worries
melt away amidst the joyous laughter of children.
