Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects a child’s ability to focus, regulate impulses, and manage energy levels. While it is common in children, ADHD can impact their learning, behavior, and social interactions. At Samvedan Child Development Center, we aim to provide clarity on ADHD and offer professional support to help children thrive.

What Causes ADHD?
ADHD is influenced by multiple factors, including:

Brain Development – Differences in brain structure and function
Environmental Factors – Exposure to toxins, low birth weight, or premature birth
Diagnosis involves detailed behavioral assessments, parent and teacher feedback, and expert evaluation by healthcare professionals.
How to Support a Child with ADHD
While ADHD is a lifelong condition, early intervention and the right strategies can significantly improve a child’s ability to focus and self-regulate. Some key approaches include:
Behavioral Therapy – Teaching self-discipline and coping mechanisms
Parent Coaching – Helping families create a structured and supportive environment
