Empowering Your
Independence

Our SIL homes balance independence and daily living support, empowering participants while keeping them safe.

Human-centred,
Always

We prioritise dignity, choice, and communication. Every conversation starts with understanding the person; their routines, preferences, and support needs.

A home should support daily life; not complicate it

A home should support daily life; not complicate it

SIL isn’t about fitting someone into a vacancy. It’s about matching the right level of support, the right household, and the right pace for the person living there.

We take a steady, respectful approach so participants and families can make informed decisions with confidence.

What is Supported Independent Living (SIL)?

What is Supported Independent Living (SIL)?

Supported Independent Living (SIL) is an NDIS support that assists people who need regular help with daily tasks to live in their home, often within a shared living arrangement.

SIL may support:

  • Personal care and daily routines

  • Meal preparation and household tasks

  • Supervision and overnight support, where required

  • Skill development aligned with individual goals

Although many people search for a “SIL house in Sydney”, SIL refers to the support delivered in the home, not ownership of the property.

Build Life Skills & Confidence

More than just accommodation, our NDIS SIL services in Sydney focus on building everyday skills that support independence and confidence over time. Participants are supported to develop practical skills such as cooking, managing money, planning daily routines, and engaging with their local community. Whether you’re exploring Supported Independent Living in Sydney or considering suitable SIL accommodation options, our team provides clear guidance and personalised support so each step feels practical, respectful, and aligned with individual goals.

Personalised, Round-the-Clock Support

Our NDIS SIL supports in Sydney are tailored to each participant’s needs and may include assistance with personal care, meal preparation, household tasks, medication support (where appropriate), and community participation. Depending on individual requirements, supports can be delivered through one-to-one or shared arrangements, including overnight or 24/7 models. We work with participants, families, and Support Coordinators to design support plans that respect independence while promoting safety, consistency, and wellbeing.

What SIL supports may include

Depending on individual needs and the household model, SIL supports can include:

  • Assistance with personal care
  • Support with meals and nutrition
  • Help with daily routines and household tasks
  • Overnight or 24/7 staffing models (where required)
  • Support to attend appointments or community activities

All supports are tailored to assessed needs and NDIS plan decisions.

Each suburb page provides locally relevant information and links back to this Sydney SIL hub to support clear, consistent guidance.

Smooth, Collaborative Transition Pathways

Our Sydney-based Transition Desk supports participants moving into NDIS SIL arrangements in Sydney through a calm, well-planned, and respectful process. We work closely alongside families and informal decision-makers, Support Coordinators and Specialist Support Coordinators, as well as allied health professionals and broader care teams.
