As a veteran in child healthcare, Neotia Bhagirathi Woman and Child Care Centre recognised the critical role of early diagnosis and timely intervention in improving developmental outcomes.

The Child Development Centre (CDC) brings together a multidisciplinary team of paediatricians, neurologists, psychologists, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, speech therapists, and special educators to provide comprehensive, coordinated, and child-centric care.It offers a comprehensive range of services, including advanced diagnostics, therapeutic interventions, neurorehabilitation, innovative therapies, and family-centred support such as counselling, caregiver training, and long-term developmental planning. Designed as a safe and sensory friendly space, the centre supports children with developmental and neurological conditions, scholastic challenges, behavioural concerns, and early developmental delays, while offering structured guidance and support to families and caregivers.
“Child development requires an approach that goes beyond episodic treatment to long term, coordinated care. Through the Child Development Centre, we at Neotia Bhagirathi Woman and Child Care Centre, Newtown are building a model that brings clinical expertise, therapy, rehabilitation, and family engagement together to support children across every stage of development. This initiative reflects our commitment to strengthening specialised paediatric care in Eastern India,” said Mr. Parthiv Neotia, Joint Managing Director of Ambuja Neotia Healthcare Venture Limited.
