For Jodhpur families

Most Jodhpur families who contact us about cerebral palsy already have a report, a school that is willing, and a week that does not quite hold together. A shadow teacher or special educator for a child with cerebral palsy helps the child take full part in learning while the body needs extra support. They follow the physiotherapist's and occupational therapist's guidance on seating, positioning and hand use, carry the speech-language pathologist's communication plan into every lesson, including a communication board or device where one is used, and make sure the child is taught at the level of their thinking. With the school, they plan routes, timings and practical changes to the classroom.

We work with Jodhpur's CBSE schools, including those that serve Army and Air Force families, its Rajasthan board schools in Hindi and English medium, and a smaller number of ICSE schools, and with the developmental paediatricians, speech-language pathologists, occupational therapists and psychologists the family already trusts. Families in Sardarpura, Shastri Nagar, Ratanada and Paota, and across Rajasthan, start the same way: a private conversation, then a written child-support profile that every candidate is matched against.

What usually helps

Seating, positioning and movement breaks exactly as the physiotherapist has set them
Communication supports, including a board or device where a speech-language pathologist has recommended one
Learning pitched to the child's understanding, not to how their body moves
A school building and timetable the child can actually get through

We write these into your child's support profile before anyone is placed, so the professional arrives in Jodhpur knowing the plan rather than guessing at it.

How a placement works

Where our role ends

Cerebral palsy is diagnosed by a paediatrician or paediatric neurologist, and physiotherapists, occupational therapists and speech-language pathologists set the therapy programmes. Our professionals work to those programmes. Where a child needs medical or nursing care in the day, we say so, and we do not place an educator in that role.

Questions from Jodhpur families

Can a shadow teacher support a child with cerebral palsy in a Jodhpur school?+

Yes, where the school agrees. We speak to the inclusion coordinator, the principal's office or the class teacher before anyone is placed, and agree how the shadow teacher will work in class, so the support fits the school's own way of teaching.

Is this therapy?+

Our shadow teachers, special educators and tutors are educators, not therapists, and they work to the plans your child's clinicians and school set. The one therapy Special Minds provides is ABA, designed and supervised by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst; we do not diagnose, prescribe, or provide speech or occupational therapy.

Which parts of Jodhpur do you cover?+

Sardarpura, Shastri Nagar, Ratanada, Paota, Chopasni Housing Board, Pal Road, and the neighbourhoods around them. We shortlist by where your child goes to school and where you live, so the same professional can stay for the year.

Do we need a diagnosis before we contact you?+

No. Many Jodhpur families come to us before there is a diagnosis, with a note from the school or a worry of their own. We tell you plainly whether we can help now, or whether a developmental paediatrician or psychologist should see your child first.

Will the professional speak our language?+

English always, and Hindi where the candidate pool allows. Tell us on the brief which language your child is most at ease in.

How soon can support start in Jodhpur?+

It depends on who is available near you. We look for a vetted professional who lives close enough to stay for the whole school year, and we tell you plainly how long that is likely to take before you commit to anything. Remedial tutoring can also begin online, usually within two to three weeks.
