Tomatis Listening Therapy
"Following a rigorous 14-hour regimen, my son embarked on his first day of year 1, and the results were truly remarkable. His transition was not only swift but also notably smoother than those of his typically developing peers. Tomatis therapy played a pivotal role in improving my son's behavior, augmenting his listening skills, and enhancing his communication abilities. The impact of this intervention is immediate and evident by us, his parents, teachers and people in our surrounding. We are grateful for this lovely transformation and looking forward to the second round."

Therapist: Diana Guanco
"A year ago, I began ABA therapy for my little one at TDCC with the amazing Ms. Diana Guanco. She possesses a wonderful personality, both fun and determined, and she's doing her best with my child. Initially, my child would cry and refuse to go to the sessions. Now, the situation has completely transformed. She cries when it’s time to go back home because she wants to stay much longer. All the best to TDCC and the staff!"

It's great to know I am not alone. Uzma is fantastic, sharing her own journey and experiences has been fantastic. Definitely would recommend these communities to more parents in the Dubai community."

School Readiness Program
"TDCC EIP School Readiness program has really helped our daughter to settle down and improve a lot and achieve her goals. Now she has started school at FS2 and completed 3 weeks. Class teacher was very happy with my daughter and had only praise for her during our short meeting this week. She learned a lot at TDCC with her class teachers and EIP supervisors and the rest of the team guiding her and making her feel comfortable and ensuring the goals are met. As parents we knew she was in good hands and with regular feedback from the teachers were able to guide her at home too. Speech and OT therapists were very effective too and had regular discussions and feedback to ensure she progressed on the right path. We are very happy with TDCC, and will always be grateful for their guidance and professional approach. You guys are the Best!"

ABA Services
We have been with TDCC's ABA for about a year now. I can say it has been a great experience with them, especially with our son. They have helped our son with many problem behaviors and as parents have trained us on how to handle certain situations and challenges. They listen to everything we have to say and give me feedback on how he is doing during our visits to the center. We highly recommend them if you're in need of ABA services, they are wonderful.

Therapist: Zara Awan
Ms Zara Awan is an exceptional teacher and guide. My child has improved remarkably and gained confidence through the process. Ms Zara is patient and firm at the same time, which is the right kind of attitude needed for kids in growing age. Not only kids, even parents receive guidance from her making the process easier for all anxious parents. I totally recommend her for any child needing specialist service for dyslexia or other learning difficulties.

"Uzma is a great mentor! She helped me capitalized on my own strength to support my daughter academically while providing much insight into structure and routine at home. While I always feel empowered after our sessions, I truly value her subtleness and compassion in supporting me gain mental clarity, while outlining and executing a successful homeschooling plan. Greatly appreciated!"

Therapist: Sima Khayat
"My son started with Sima in the last term and I am amazed at the way they have bonded in such a short time. He enjoys his sessions and picking up on his conversational speech. It's encouraging to see the number of full sentences coming out nowadays and hoping to see more and more positives as we move along.
Thank you Sima, for being able to read my son so well in such a short time and for working on his weaker areas. Appreciated!"

Therapist: Dr. Raghida Achkar
"I can finally say that I see the light at the end of the tunnel because of Dr. Raghida who puts her hands on my son's problem. No one but her gave us clear answers to what was wrong and since we started with her, we saw the rue color s of my son appearing. As is my son is an onion and we are peeling away layers of ambiguity to bring out the very best of his core self.
Thank you for making our son and ourselves happier people! Forever grateful to you and your team!"

"My son spent 2 years in this program and it is a life-changing for him. Hearing him say "Mummy"and "Daddy" for the first time was the happiest moment of our lives.
He became more independent and he is not afraid now to try new things. This is all thanks to the patience of his teachers and for believing in him that he can do everything.
Keep changing lives, TDCC!"

"My son has been with Badar for nearly three years now and it's been a rewarding journey to date. He enjoys the sessions and has shown a good level of improvement over the years.

ABA Team
"There's a lot to say. Don't know what to start with.
We were so worried about our son due to his behavioral issues such as lack of attention, non-compliance, sitting tolerance, resistance but then we found TDCC “Solution to our problems”.
My son went through ABA therapy services at TDCC for six months and we can clearly see unbelievable results. ABA therapy helped him to overcome his above-mentioned issues. Today, we are so happy to see him behaving so well. Undoubtedly, we highly recommend all the parents like us whose kids are struggling with the same issues to approach TDCC without wasting more time and let them help you to develop your kids.
Thank you so much Diana, Eva, Nikki, and Jester.
You all have contributed a lot to develop my son.”

I think Joa has been a fantastic therapist for Ahmad and just what he needed to develop his speech skills. I love her energetic and fun approach that adapts according to his needs.

Looking forward to Ahmad progressing under her expert care.

Therapist: Aalia Thobani
"My son's speech therapy with Aalia has helped him grow so much in his confidence and ability. Aalia keeps him engaged and active in their sessions which is so important at four years old. He speaks of her frequently and fondly. He even asks to see her on days when he doesn't have speech! I feel so lucky to have found Aalia--she has made such a difference in our lives."

Therapist: Meg Klien
When we first met Meg, we had been doing speech therapy for a year in another center without any results. My daughter was pronouncing 2 syllables only. Meg immediately realized the underlying issue: dyspraxia, and started targeted treatment. We could hear new sounds and then words after every session! Now my daughter can talk in sentences.
Meg’s sessions are unique in terms of value. Speech therapy is so expensive in UAE; with others, I often wonder what am I paying for. Not with Meg. She doesn’t waste time: every minute is targeted at helping the child. I sat at all sessions and learned new techniques and tips on how to replicate the same at home, which is very important because if you don’t practice with the child at home, they won’t progress much.
My daughter has other medical conditions and takes medications: for this reason, I was hesitant to address behavior issues. Meg is amazing with kids; she showed me how to effectively handle a lack of cooperation and made me believe I can do it.
We feel so lucky to have such an amazing and experienced speech therapist who truly cares about children and their parents.

Therapist: Varsha Vijayan
We’ve enrolled our daughter for private sessions with Varsha for over a year now. Varsha is a dedicated, hardworking therapist eager to work every session. Her feedbacks give a clear picture on progress, and we can certainly see that progress credited to her when our child mentions her name in conversations at home!

Therapist: Aalia Thobani
My son has been doing speech therapy with Aalia for the last two years. She mentioned that you all are redoing the TDCC website and asked if I would write a testimonial. I don't know exactly what you need, and I'm happy to edit or add if that's helpful, but I'll say this:
"My son's speech therapy with Aalia has helped him grow so much in his confidence and ability. Aalia keeps him engaged and active in their sessions which is so important at four years old.

Therapist:
Bakhtaver Ayrton
Our occupational therapist, Bakhti, came highly recommended to me by many. She was a Godsend. Her honesty, transparency, and attention to detail when it comes to my children are just a few of the amazing characteristics she holds. It is quite clear that what she does is not a JOB, on the contrary, it is a passion. She never gives up on a child and always challenges herself and the children. Her communication is direct and precise with clear disclosure of any concerns. I could never imagine our journey with dyspraxia and inattentive ADHD with anyone but her. There will never be enough words that would do justice to describe her as a person and as an OT.
Review
TDCC
The developing center is one of the centers that provide occupational therapy in a distinctive way and have extensive experience in this field. The treatment focuses on developing the capabilities of people of determination who suffer from sensory or motor difficulties and helping them achieve the maximum possible degree of independence and self-reliance in various areas of their lives
One of the basics of occupational therapy is to improve fine muscle skills.
In particular, hand muscles and sensory abilities. In addition, occupational therapy is concerned with developing visual coordination. Occupational therapy is also concerned with training them in skills that are very important in their daily lives, such as dressing and grooming.

Therapist :
Zara Awan
TDCC is a credible institution, its strength being its highly-skilled therapists.
Ms. Zara has been an exceptionally kind, dedicated, and skilled teacher. Her human touch and the way she treated my child as her own, got her very far with my child and gave us results much faster and better than expected. She is consistent, thorough, and ready to help whenever needed. She not only teaches the child but also guides the parents to ascertain progress. I highly recommend her to all parents whose kids are having any dyslexia-related learning difficulties.
