Support for the hours that matter

Most providers work weekday business hours. But the things that make up a good week — sport, community events, seeing family, getting out of the house — mostly happen on evenings and weekends. That's when we work, across Perth's southern and northern suburbs.

What we help with

Three ways we can help


Community access and participation

Delivered by our support workers

Getting out and doing the things that matter to you. This can include:

  • Community and cultural events
  • Sporting clubs and training
  • Social groups
  • Libraries, courses and classes
  • Shopping and errands
  • Visiting friends and family
  • Movies, concerts and local markets
  • Swimming and the beach
  • Parks and walks

Where it helps, everyday home support — meal preparation, laundry, tidying and shopping — can be included alongside this support.

NDIS

Youth mentoring

Delivered personally by the practice principal

One-to-one mentoring and support for young people, including young people with disability — from a qualified social worker with over five years mentoring and supporting young people, rather than from a general support worker. It suits teenagers and young adults who haven't engaged well with other supports. This can include:

  • Building confidence and routine
  • Working towards goals
  • Getting back into sport, study or activities
  • Navigating school or training
  • Practical help working through problems

NDIS and privately funded

Building skills and independence

Delivered by the practice principal or a senior support worker

Rather than doing things for you, we work alongside you to build what you can do on your own over time. This can include:

  • Using public transport confidently
  • Planning and managing a week
  • Cooking and shopping skills
  • Joining a group or club and sticking with it
  • Social confidence
  • Managing appointments and responsibilities

NDIS

Funding

Who we work with


  • Plan-managed NDIS participants
  • Self-managed NDIS participants
  • Families and individuals paying privately

We're not currently able to take NDIA-managed (agency-managed) participants.

In-person support is available across Perth's southern and northern suburbs.

Our team

Who you'll work with


  • Community access is delivered by our support workers. We match each person based on the participant or young person — not on roster convenience.
  • Youth mentoring is delivered personally by the practice principal.
  • All supports are overseen by the practice principal, a qualified social worker.
  • Every worker holds the checks listed under credentials and safeguards.

How we work

The match comes first


We listen

A proper conversation about your goals, your interests, and the kind of person you actually get along with.

We match

We pair you with someone chosen for you: shared interests, right temperament, nearby.

We check

Every pairing starts with a trial. If it's not right, you tell us and we re-match. No awkwardness; it's how we work.

We stay

The same small team stays with you. That consistency is the whole point.

From the founder

The relationship is the work

“The thing I've seen matter most, again and again, is the relationship. Not the program. Not the paperwork. The person who keeps showing up.”

I've spent my career as a social worker — in child protection, youth justice and family services. That's why I started this practice, and it's the standard I hold every person we bring on: would I trust you with someone I love? If the answer isn't an easy yes, you don't work here.
