Holistic support for every child, every family.
A comprehensive, integrated approach bringing health, education, therapy, and family support under one roof — so no family in West Garo Hills navigates alone.
Early Intervention Programme
A child-centred, holistic model addressing all dimensions of development
Aadya Foundation's integrated early intervention model — all four pillars converge on the child's needs
Health & Medical Services
Regular health check-ups and specialised therapies ensure that each child's medical needs are comprehensively addressed. Children with Down syndrome have specific health screening needs that require specialist attention — we bring these services directly to families in West Garo Hills.
What's included
Physical Skill Development
Our occupational therapy and physiotherapy programmes focus on developing the motor skills, sensory processing, and life skills that children need for everyday independence. Sessions are designed to be play-based, engaging, and age-appropriate.
What's included
Education & Skill Development
We provide individualized educational programmes tailored to each child's unique learning needs — because children with Down syndrome learn differently, not less. Our approach combines special education, vocational training, and our new digital Maths Tools platform.
7 interactive digital tools built on Dr. Horstmeier's 30-year research — covering prenumber concepts, counting, calculator skills, addition, shapes, time, and money. Free and Pro tiers.

Family Support & Counselling
Raising a child with Down syndrome brings unique emotional, social, and practical challenges. We provide counselling, support groups, and resources so families feel equipped and supported — not isolated. Our Parent-to-Trainer model goes further, turning parents into community facilitators.
"When I first got my child's diagnosis, I had nowhere to turn. Aadya Foundation gave me not just services — they gave me community, knowledge, and confidence to help my child and others."
What's included
Nutrition Guidance
Children with Down syndrome have specific nutritional needs that are often overlooked. Our nutrition expert provides specialised dietary guidance using locally available foods from the Garo Hills region — no expensive supplements or imported products needed.
What's included
Community Inclusion & Advocacy
Promoting inclusion, reducing stigma, and advocating for the rights of individuals with Down syndrome across Meghalaya
