Launch of First NCR Centre by Butterfly Learnings
On July 31, 2026, Butterfly Learnings announced the opening of its first National Capital Region (NCR) centre located in Gurgaon. The centre is positioned as Asia's only Behavioral Health Center of Excellence (BHCOE)‑accredited pediatric behavioral health platform that consolidates therapy, schooling, and early screening under a single roof for families in the NCR.
Services and Target Population
The facility caters to children aged 2 to 10 years diagnosed with autism, speech and language delays, developmental delays, and learning disabilities. It provides a suite of services:
- Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) Therapy to improve communication, behaviour, and learning through step‑by‑step teaching.
- Speech and Language Therapy to enhance speaking, comprehension, and expression.
- Occupational Therapy to develop everyday skills such as sitting, writing, eating, and managing sensory sensitivities.
- Developmental Assessments that evaluate overall development, identify strengths and challenges, and guide appropriate support.
- Integrated Schooling (BLISS model) that merges therapy with academic instruction, covering communication, behaviour, academics, sports, and daily‑life skills.
Personalized Care Model
Each child receives an individualized plan crafted collaboratively by therapists, educators, and specialists. Parents are engaged through regular meetings, home‑plan assignments, and a mobile application that delivers real‑time progress updates.
Leadership Quote
Founder and Clinical Director Dr. Sonam Kothari stated: “As a clinician, I believe families deserve more than good intentions – they deserve evidence. Every child at Butterfly Learnings is supported through standardized assessments, protocol‑driven therapy, and transparent progress tracking, so parents always know exactly how their child is developing and why. That same rigor and transparency is what we're bringing to NCR with our new Gurgaon centre.”
Company Footprint and Accreditation
Butterfly Learnings operates in more than 10 cities and maintains over 80 centres nationwide, having supported more than 10,000 children to date. It holds the distinction of being Asia's only full BHCOE accreditation holder.
Early Screening Innovation
The organisation’s early‑screening tool, Get SET Early, utilizes eye‑tracking biomarker technology developed in collaboration with researchers at UC San Diego, enabling identification of developmental concerns earlier than conventional diagnostic pathways.
Expansion Plans
The Gurgaon launch marks the entry into the NCR market, with plans to expand further across Gurgaon and adjacent areas.
