Meet the hearts behind Carely.
We are educators, strategists, and advocates united by a single purpose: to build a world where every child feels seen, supported, and celebrated.
"I grew up without the language or support I needed. I know how heavy it is to feel unseen, and I don’t want any child to grow up with that weight."
I’ve spent more than a decade working with children and young adults with ADHD, Autism, Cerebral Palsy, and multiple disabilities, but my relationship with this work started long before my career.
Growing up deaf and neurodivergent, and undiagnosed for most of my childhood, I learned early what it felt like to be misunderstood. Those experiences became the lens through which I see every child: with patience, respect, and a deep understanding of how much safer the world feels when someone finally “gets” you.
Comfort Ritual
I spend half an hour with my dogs before work. It helps me self-regulate, ground myself, and step into work feeling calm and centred.
Before Carely
Was a special educator and life-skills trainer working closely with children and teens with diverse needs.
Education
- BSc. (Hons.) in Human Development, Jadavpur University
- B.Ed in Special Education (Multiple Disabilities)
Why I Do This
Because I grew up without the language or support I needed. I know how heavy it is to feel unseen, and I don’t want any child to grow up with that weight.
A Moment That Stays
"A parent once broke down crying when I told them their child was doing well. It was the first time in seven years anyone had said that to them, and I’ve never forgotten the relief on their face."
If You’re a Parent Reading This...
"I know the guilt you’re carrying. I’ve felt it in my work, in my home, and in the families I meet. You’re doing enough, and you don’t have to do it alone."
"I believe every child deserves care that fits their life, and every parent deserves to feel supported, not alone."
I’m a passionate advocate for disability inclusion and family-centered care. My background spans Public Relations, Corporate Communications, and running a rehabilitation clinic. Coming from a family with lived experience of disability, I’ve also been a caregiver myself.
Witnessing how overwhelming the care journey can be for parents inspired me to found Carely. My goal is simple: to make home-based care accessible, supportive, and tailored to each family. I lead with empathy, purpose, and a commitment to helping children grow with confidence.
Comfort Ritual
Walking my dog and journaling. It helps me reflect, organize my thoughts, and set a calm, positive tone for the day ahead.
Childhood Lesson
Every child has their own rhythm. Growing up, I saw how encouragement, rather than pressure, shapes confidence.
Education
- BA (Hons.) in Journalism and Mass Communications
- Adv. Cert. in Public Relations & Applied Communication, MICA
Why I Do This
Because families deserve support that truly understands them. I’ve seen how overwhelming the care journey can be, and I believe every parent deserves accessible, compassionate help.
A Moment That Stays
"A mother once told me in the waiting room, 'I wish all of this could just happen at home.' Her voice was tired, but hopeful. That simple sentence planted the seed for Carely."
"I advocate for disability rights and awareness fiercely and unapologetically."
I am deaf and visually impaired. Once shy and hesitant, I always worried about “creating problems” or “making others uncomfortable.” It took years to find my voice.
Although disabilities vary, one thing is constant: how we are approached. Even a small shift, from assuming to asking, “Can I be of any help?”, makes a huge difference. Through my content, I guide you on the hows, whys, and what-to-dos of the disability world.
Before Carely
I was a content writer. I have always been vocal about equal rights, and Carely gave me the medium to reach more people.
Comfort Ritual
A warm cup of tea in complete silence. That half-hour of solitude helps me relax and prepare for the day ahead.
How My Differences Shape My Work
I grew up deaf and often watched people refuse to repeat themselves. So if you need me to explain something ten times, I will. I’ll write it down, act it out - whatever helps.
To Parents...
"Not all heroes wear capes, and you are one of them. We’re proud of you."
"I help families find support that fits their child, not the other way around."
I’m always looking for opportunities to contribute. As a psychology student working for Carely, I help families by connecting them with the right therapists and talking with parents to understand their child’s challenges.
My goal is to make the care journey manageable and meaningful, whether it’s helping a child build confidence, navigate daily challenges, or supporting the family as a whole.
Comfort Ritual
I take a quiet moment to breathe and ground myself. I show up better for others when I show up gently for myself first.
Before Carely
Interned with institutions focused on supporting children and families while being a full time student.
A Moment That Stays
During a clinical visit, a child told me, “Thank you for talking to me like I’m smart.” It reminded me that dignity is the foundation of care.
To Parents...
"Hope isn’t lost. You’re already fighting for your child, and that matters more than you know."
"I ensure to really listen to every person whose words are just felt, never heard."
I am a dedicated mental-health advocate. I ‘hear’ the silent suffering, and over the years I have guided many individuals through their struggles.
At Carely, I talk to parents every day, listening to their challenges and helping them make sense of their child’s needs. My goal is to provide clarity, support, and understanding so families feel empowered, not overwhelmed.
Comfort Ritual
I begin each day with one page of gratitude journaling.
Childhood Lesson
Parents are a child’s entire world. Their opinions matter the most.
A Moment That Stays
During an internship, a 12-year-old opened up to me saying, “Didi was listening to me and did not say that I was lying.” I believe in children when they share their problems.
To Parents...
"You’re doing everything you can. Your child is going to be okay."
"I care about people being seen, heard, and understood, no matter their background or abilities."
I create resources and guidance that help families and professionals navigate care. My work is grounded in empathy, fairness, and a commitment to making support systems accessible to everyone.
I’m drawn to this field because I deeply value empathy and believe that every family deserves guidance without judgment.
Comfort Ritual
I take a few moments to review priorities and step into my tasks with focus and clarity.
My Wish for Parents
That emotional safety is far more important than perfection.
A Moment That Stays
When I realized my research could directly improve access to critical support, helping families navigate complex systems with confidence.
To Parents...
"You’re doing your best, and that is enough."
