Tamahar, a non-profit organization founded in 2009 by Ms. Vaishali Pai, is dedicated to supporting children facing developmental delays due to brain damage, including conditions like Autism, Cerebral Palsy, Down’s Syndrome, Rare diseases, and Genetic disorders. As one of the best NGOs working for childhood disability in India, our holistic developmental intervention approach encompasses Core intervention, Functional Education, Pre-vocational training, Occupational Therapy, Speech Therapy, Physiotherapy, Music Therapy, Yoga, Arts, Dance, and Sports.

Our Programs
At Tamahar, we’ve crafted a unique pedagogy tailored specifically for Indian conditions, yet infused with global techniques and scientific insights. Our mission is to support children with developmental disabilities through an extensive range of programs thoughtfully designed to meet their diverse needs. Our approach is to help each child reach key developmental milestones and lay a strong foundation for their future-not just academically but in their personal and social lives as well. We offer comprehensive mental health services, along with training in therapy, and skill development for their families as well.

Children Program
Our Children’s programs include Early Intervention, Nursery, Functional Academics, Prevocational Training and Sheltered Workshop, Auxiliary Therapy and Recreation Programs.

Family Services
Caregiving is a 24/7 job, especially when you have a child with special needs, and mostly it is without any respite care. This is enough to wear down the strongest of individuals. We have various family services to empower parents to develop their sense of self-worth, self-esteem, and personal fulfillment, which can have a positive ripple effect on the entire family. We encourage parents to pursue education, engage in skill development, and train them in entrepreneurship and product development. At Tamahar, we believe supporting parents of children with special needs is crucial for improving family dynamics and overall well-being. Tamahar trains parents to become primary therapists for their children.

HR Development
The ratio of professionals available to children requiring services is concerning, with the number of special education teachers significantly falling short of the demand. Tamahar focuses on building Human Resources by conducting training programs to increase the available interventionists at ground level.

As a top developmental disabilities organization offering a comprehensive range of services tailored to the unique needs of each child from birth onwards, we are recognized as an NGO for the mentally challenged in Bangalore, specializing in providing transformative interventions to enhance the lives of children facing developmental challenges. Vaishali stands out among the founders of some of the best organizations for developmentally disabled individuals. Utilizing her certification as an NLP practitioner to master methodologies crucial for remedial teaching, her expertise extends to children facing learning challenges and those on the Autism spectrum, as well as those dealing with hyperactivity or attention deficit issues.

Looking towards the future, Vaishali plans to incorporate the lesser-known technique of EMG Biofeedback. This innovative approach holds promise for aiding both children and adults in dealing with physical dysfunction resulting from brain damage. Vaishali’s dedication and diverse skill set underscore her role as a key figure in schools for autism in Bangalore and developmental disabilities organizations.
