Live life your way with Supported Independent Living (SIL) in South Australia
Get help to live more independently with the right support in place.
At estara, we know how important a safe, comfortable and happy home is to living well. If you are living with a disability and need help at home, we provide supported independent living (SIL) services across regional and metro South Australia. Our services are designed for people who want to live independently while receiving regular assistance with daily tasks. We offer 24/7 support in both shared and individual living arrangements—personalised to your needs, goals, and lifestyle.
What makes estara's Supported Independent Living different?
We’ve been providing in-home care to people living with a disability long before the NDIS existed. Now a registered NDIS provider, we remain committed to providing person-centred care which puts you in control of how you live your life.
If you are moving out of your family home or are keen to find a place that is a better fit for you, we carefully choose homes that suit a diverse range of needs.
Once you are in one of our SIL homes, we will work with you to ensure our staff receive training about your individual care needs and goals.
Our support workers are backed by a broader team of allied health professionals including OTs, physios and nurses who can assist with specific needs, home modifications and assessments. We are also a registered NDIS provider which means you can count on us to provide high quality services and safeguarding.

We understand not everyone likes to share a home but sometimes, due to needs and funding, this may be the most suitable option, To make sure it works for you, we have a considered approach to matching the right participants to each other to create a harmonious, happy and safe community in our properties. This includes organising meet and greets with potential participants, assessing applications for shared interests amongst tenants and finding the right fit in terms of age, gender and support needs.

You can expect daily life to involve our support workers coming in to assist you with tasks. They might also take you out to attend appointments or activities in the community – or for a cup of coffee by the beach. Where you are sharing accommodation you might spend time with other residents, use the shared spaces or enjoy your own company in your own space. Depending on your interests, we will help you connect to the people or activities you love and we’ll also provide access to events through our broader estara community
