What do I do if my child doesn’t eat without a screen in front of them? Is it wrong to send my child to daycare instead of staying home with them? Am I over pampering my child by giving in to every demand? Should affection come with limits when raising children? So many questions as a parent but all we find is scattered answers.

In 1998, when structured daycare was still a rare concept in Pune, a simple yet powerful idea took root, to create a space where children would be cared for with intention, empathy, and everyday joy. That idea today is Aajol, founded by Mrs. Monika Kulkarni, a daycare and preschool known for its nurturing environment and its distinct “LearnCare” philosophy.

In this heartfelt episode of Soulsome with Sarika, we journey through the making of a movement that reshaped early childhood care in urban India. Aajol isn’t just a daycare; it’s a reminder that when care is purposeful, it becomes transformative. Whether you are a parent, educator, or someone curious about purpose-driven entrepreneurship, this conversation will move you, motivate you, and make you rethink how we raise the next generation
