Our Services

Sindara is a child and youth centre in Jos, Plateau State, for children and young people aged 3–16. We offer a welcoming place to play, connect, learn and build everyday skills, with support shaped around each child.

Who can come to Sindara?

We welcome enquiries from families of children with autism, ADHD, Down syndrome and other developmental disabilities or support needs. A diagnosis is not required to ask about our services.

Every child is different. We speak with the family, learn about the child's strengths and needs, and consider whether Sindara can provide appropriate support in our setting. If another service would be a better fit, we will discuss that honestly with the family.

How we support children

Full-Day Developmental Support

Children have a dependable day that includes play, learning, rest, social connection and everyday routines. Our support workers and caregivers help each child participate and practise skills at a comfortable pace.

Individual Developmental Support

We work with families to identify meaningful goals for their child. Support may focus on communication, emotional regulation, participation with others and growing independence.

Therapy and Professional Guidance

Our therapists and consultants provide support and guidance according to each child's needs. This may include play-based therapeutic support and approaches that help with communication, emotional regulation, behaviour and sensory participation.

Professional services are provided within each practitioner's qualifications.

Everyday Life Skills

We support children to take part in age-appropriate routines, such as self-care, making choices, managing transitions and becoming more confident in daily life.

The Sindara Hanger

The Hanger is a welcoming space for play, creativity and connection. Children can explore their interests and spend time with peers, with support to participate in ways that feel comfortable to them.

Family Partnership

Parents and caregivers know their children best. We listen to their priorities, share meaningful updates and work with them on goals that matter to their family.

Referrals and Enquiries

Parents and caregivers can contact Sindara directly. Schools, professionals and community members are also welcome to refer a child or introduce a family to us, with the parent's or guardian's knowledge and permission.

A referral starts a conversation. We will speak with the family about the child's needs and explain the next steps before any service is arranged.
