The establishment was launched with a ceremonial event at the KidZania theatre with a key handover, ribbon cutting ceremony, and special performances, which made it a memorable event.
Speaking about the partnership, Mr. Balwinder Walia, Director – Narayana Health (West Cluster), said: “At Narayana Health, we are deeply committed to nurturing the next generation of educated and compassionate healthcare professionals. With World Heart Day around the corner on September 29, this collaboration will offer an opportunity to spark conversations around heart health and the importance of compassionate care from an early age. Our partnership with KidZania Mumbai to launch the hospital experience is a step towards creating meaningful, hands-on learning for children, helping them understand the clinical skills and dedication that go into quality healthcare. From critical surgical procedures to newborn nursery care and rapid emergency response, the experience offers children a window into the advanced technology, teamwork, and hygiene protocols essential to modern medicine. What makes this initiative particularly meaningful is the opportunity to engage curious young minds through interactive role-play, inspiring tomorrow’s healthcare leaders while instilling skills like empathy, critical thinking, and teamwork”
Mr. Tarandeep Singh, Chief Business Officer said: “At KidZania, we believe children learn best when they get to experience the real world for themselves. Healthcare is a part of every child’s life in some way, but very few get an opportunity to step into that world and understand what happens behind the scenes. The new Narayana Health SRCC Children’s Hospital at KidZania Mumbai gives them exactly that a chance to role-play, explore and discover the world of healthcare while having fun.
I would also like to thank the entire team at Narayana Health SRCC Children’s Hospital, Mumbai for working so closely with us to bring this experience to life. Their expertise and support have helped us create something that is not just fun for children, but also meaningful. We look forward to seeing our young citizens put on their doctor’s coats, get curious, ask questions and experience healthcare in a completely new way.”
