Dr. Sneha Balasundaran is a fellowship-trained Neurodevelopmental Paediatrician with specialised expertise in the assessment and management of developmental, behavioural, learning, and neurodevelopmental disorders in children. Dedicated to improving developmental outcomes through early identification and intervention, she works closely with children and their families to provide personalised care that supports growth, learning, communication, and overall wellbeing. Her compassionate and child-centred approach has made her a trusted specialist for families seeking expert guidance for developmental and behavioural concerns.
After completing her DNB in Paediatrics, Dr. Sneha pursued the prestigious IAP Fellowship in Neurodevelopmental and Behavioural Paediatrics under the mentorship of Dr. M. K. C. Nair at NIMS Spectrum. This specialised training provided her with extensive experience in the evaluation and management of children with neurodevelopmental disorders, behavioural challenges, learning difficulties, and developmental delays. Her advanced training enables her to adopt a comprehensive and evidence-based approach tailored to the unique needs of each child.
Dr. Sneha has particular expertise in the management of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), helping children and families navigate the challenges associated with these conditions through structured assessment, early intervention planning, behavioural strategies, and long-term developmental support. She believes that timely identification and intervention can significantly improve a child's ability to learn, communicate, socialise, and achieve developmental milestones.
A major focus of her clinical practice is supporting children with scholastic backwardness and learning disabilities. She works closely with parents, educators, and therapists to identify learning barriers and develop individualised intervention plans that address academic, behavioural, and developmental needs. Through collaborative care, she helps children achieve improved educational outcomes and greater confidence in their daily activities.
Dr. Sneha also has significant experience in addressing behavioural and adolescent issues, recognising that emotional, social, and behavioural wellbeing plays a critical role in a child's overall development. Her approach emphasises understanding the unique circumstances of each child and family, allowing her to develop tailored strategies that promote healthy emotional development and positive behavioural outcomes.
In addition to developmental and behavioural assessment, Dr. Sneha is involved in genetic counselling, helping families understand developmental conditions and their potential implications. She is committed to empowering parents with the knowledge and resources necessary to support their child's development effectively and confidently.
Dr. Sneha Balasundaran is dedicated to helping children achieve their developmental potential through comprehensive assessments, personalised interventions, and family-focused care. Her goal is to help every child achieve their fullest potential while supporting families through every stage of their developmental journey.
