At KITES Child Development Centre, the foundation is not made of bricks and mortar — it is built from dreams, sacrifices, and endless heart.
And at the center of it all stands Susmitha Gaddam.

As Co-Founder, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Director of Family Support Services, Susmitha left behind a promising career as a Registered Nurse to pursue something bigger — the creation of KITES, a place she considers her life’s true calling and her second child.
For Susmitha, KITES isn’t just an organization — it’s a living, breathing family where children’s smiles, struggles, milestones, and dreams are celebrated every single day.

Known for her calm strength, quick, thoughtful decisions, and unshakable emotional resilience, Susmitha has created an environment where parents feel safe to share not just concerns about their child’s development, but also their own hopes, fears, and family journeys.
Her quiet presence invites honesty, trust, and openness — turning KITES into a place where families are embraced, not just served.

Behind every dream and every step forward at KITES, Susmitha stands as the backbone and heartthrob of the team. She has been the strongest pillar of support to Dr. Samraj Gaddam, mentoring his vision into reality and working tirelessly to bring neurodiverse children and their families the opportunities they deserve.

Her passion for community awareness, family empowerment, and social inclusivity shapes everything she touches – from therapy programming to community initiatives to the warm welcome families feel the moment they walk in.

At KITES, Susmitha is not just a CEO.
She is the dream nurturer.
The quiet architect of change.
And the living proof that when someone gives their whole heart to a cause, extraordinary things can happen.
