Reschedule or cancel any Pinnacle Blooms Network session by messaging your centre coordinator on WhatsApp, calling your local centre, or speaking to the front desk in person. Where possible, give 24 hours' notice so the slot can help another family — but illness and emergencies are always understood, and an occasional change won't disrupt your child's progress.

*Plans change, children have off-days, traffic happens — rescheduling a session should be the easy part of your week, not the stressful one.*

## In short
You can reschedule or cancel any session by messaging your centre coordinator on WhatsApp, calling your local Pinnacle Blooms Network centre, or speaking to the front desk on your next visit. We recommend giving at least 24 hours' notice where possible, so your child's slot and therapist time can be offered to another family — but we understand that illness and emergencies don't follow a timetable.

## How to reschedule or cancel
**The quickest ways**
- **WhatsApp** your centre coordinator on +91 91001 81181 — simply share your child's name, the current session date and time, and a preferred new slot.
- **Call your centre** directly during working hours and the front desk will move your booking.
- **Tell us in person** at your current session if you already know about a future clash.

**A few gentle pointers**
- Try to give **24 hours' notice** so the therapist's time can be re-allocated — this also helps keep your child's therapy rhythm steady.
- If your child is **unwell or feverish**, please do reschedule; recovery comes first, and consistency picks up easily afterwards.
- Ask your coordinator about a **regular recurring slot** if frequent changes are tricky around school or work — a fixed weekly time is often easier to protect.

## Why consistency helps
Regular, predictable sessions help children settle, build rapport with their therapist, and carry skills forward week to week. An occasional reschedule won't undo progress — but if you find yourself moving sessions often, mention it to your coordinator so we can find a timing that genuinely fits your family's life.

This is general information, not a diagnosis — individual assessment and diagnosis require an appropriately qualified healthcare professional.
