Kinder Joy Play School

We've been at Shop No 3 in Sonar Chawl for a while now. It's right on Caves Road in Jogeshwari East. It gets pretty busy around here, especially in the mornings when everyone is heading to work. We started Kinder Joy Play School because we saw a lot of families in the neighborhood needing a place for their little ones while they were busy. It's a small spot, just a shop really, but we've made it work. Most of the kids come from the nearby buildings. You'll see us there early setting things up before the noise of the traffic really kicks in. Being in Mumbai, space is always tight, but the kids don't seem to mind much. They just want to play. We aren't a big fancy chain or anything like that. It's just us and the local staff who live close by. Sometimes the fans are a bit loud and the street outside is messy, but that's just how Jogeshwari is. We know the parents by name because they stop to chat when they drop the kids off. It’s a simple setup. We have some toys, a few mats, and lots of noise during the day. If you walk down Caves Road toward the station, you'll probably hear us before you see us. It’s been a few years and we’ve seen a lot of kids grow up and move on to the bigger schools nearby. We just keep doing what we do every day.
