I’m happy to support CRY’s #TingTong campaign, an important reminder about Child Online Safety. As a parent myself, I understand the responsibility. It’s a huge one ! Our children are growing up in a very different paced world, where so much of their learning, playing, friendships and discovering, all happens online. It’s wonderful in so many ways, but there are times, when innocent children can suffer. We all have a role to play in helping our children navigate the online world, to understand how to stay safe and vigilant in this digital world, knowing they can reach out to us. Sometimes, it can be as simple as taking a little pause before we click, share, reply or trust. A moment to think twice, check and make sure before you do anything online. So, a little reminder for all of us… Ting Tong! Take a pause. 🔔💛 #onlinesafety #onlinesafetyforkids #onlinesafetytips #collaboration

Yesterday, the Women’s Reservation Bill didn’t pass. And I’ve been sitting with that since morning. We’re the world’s largest democracy — and only 14% of our Parliament is women. Most laws shaping our safety, our health, our children’s futures — made without us in the room. This bill would change that. 33% of Parliamentary seats, reserved for women. We’ve seen it work at the grassroots. It just needs to go higher. This isn’t about politics. It’s about who gets to shape this country’s future. I would love for this bill to be implemented so women have a say! #NariShaktiVSRajniti #GiveHerTheSeat

POV: The way you talk about food in front of your kids is shaping their entire relationship with eating… It’s not just what’s on the plate , it’s the words we use every single day. One small shift in language can turn “I hate vegetables” into “I’m still learning to love green foods” Left side = phrases that accidentally create fear, pressure & picky eating Right side = phrases that build confidence, curiosity & a healthy relationship with food Your words become their inner voice around mealtimes. That’s why we teamed up , a child nutritionist @sanchitadaswani + child psychologist @playfulparenthood — to show you exactly how to speak so your kids grow up loving food instead of fearing it.

If there’s one thing motherhood has taught me, it’s this: No one knows your child the way you do. Not Google. Not relatives. Not even doctors. Trust your gut. Always. 📩 Share this with a mom who’s doubting herself #motherhoodunfiltered #silentreflux #parentingjourney #indianmoms #realmotherhood

Golden sands, adrenaline, and a whole lot of wow 🌅🐪 Our Dubai desert safari was one of those experiences you feel long after it’s over—Hummer pick-up, spotting a majestic falcon, racing through the dunes on a super-fast buggy at sunset, a calm camel ride, and ending the night with live performances under the stars. Truly unforgettable. Comment SAFARI and I’ll DM you the booking link.

Who knew one of our most fun Dubai memories would be made in the snow? ❄️🤍 Ski Dubai was pure magic for us—from laughing our way through the snow park, watching penguins up close, to warming up with the best hot chocolate after all the fun. Seeing your child experience snow for the first time in the middle of Dubai is truly something else. If you’re visiting Dubai with kids, this is one experience you shouldn’t miss. 💡 Parent tip: Book Ski Dubai through Klook and use my code PAYALPP to get 10% OFF your booking. #SkiDubai #DubaiWithKids #FamilyTravelDubai #klookindia #klookkreator

Watching my baby learn to do everything with just one arm hasn’t been easy. Abeer fractured his wrist and will be in a plaster for the next 3 weeks, and every little task—from eating to writing—now needs extra effort, extra patience, and extra courage. He has shown me what it means to be brave. The way he tries. The way he adapts. The way kids just keep going—even when it’s hard. This phase is about healing, slowing down, and reminding him (and myself) that it’s okay to need help sometimes. One day at a time, my love 🤍 #MomHeart #HealingTogether #ResilientKids #ParentingWithLove #MomLife

#Collaboration with @FirstcryIndia Wishing you all a very Happy Lohri 🤍 For us, Lohri is all about slowing down as a family—lighting diyas, gathering around warmth, sharing stories, laughter, and teaching Abeer why this festival celebrates harvest, gratitude, and new beginnings.

And just like that, our Abeeru turns 7. It has been such a pleasure watching you grow and become your own person Abeeru.

When you step into motherhood, you expect the late nights, the tiny socks, the giggles… but some things, like RSV – Respiratory Syncytial Virus, don’t come with a warning label. RSV is the No. 1 cause of pneumonia in infants under 1- yes, even in healthy, full-term newborns. But here’s the reassuring part: preventive immunization against RSV is now available in India. Motherhood is a journey of protecting, nurturing, and understanding. 🌼 And staying informed is the first step to keeping our little ones safe. #TogetherAgainstRSV #InCollaborationwithSanofi #RSV

Comment recipe and I’ll dm it to you. This recipe made 8 cupcakes. Each cupcake has approx 120 calories, 18g carbs, 7g protein, and 3 grams of fat.

All Her Fault is a gripping show - but it also made me rethink something every parent does without a second thought: sending our kids on play dates. Before you drop them off next time, keep these 3 simple safety checks in mind. It takes just a minute but can make all the difference. ❤️ Save this for later + share with another parent! #ParentingTips #ChildSafetyMatters #ModernParenting

It’s such a simple little game but it helps kids: 🧠 Think strategically 💬 Use new vocabulary 🤝 Learn how to ask better questions #amazoninfluencerprogram #KidsLearningMadeFun #ParentingTips
