What works for you, works for us.
Supports can be offered in a range of everyday environments such as at home, playgroup, sporting and community activities. Families and carers will also be supported to help their NDIS Participants develop and use new skills. Every NDIS Participants and family will require different types of supports and services according to their needs. We work with the community to identify the most effective intervention supports NDIS Participants will need. We will support both inclusion in community services as well as providing a pathway into the NDIS for NDIS Participants who require longer-term support.
We don’t employ traditional ‘Support Workers’. We employ ‘Personal Assistants’ and ‘Life Skills Coaches’.
We specialise in one-on-one life skills coaching for NDIS Participants.
We connect you with your community. Working from a strengths-based approach, we will coach and support you to take the next step to be fully included in community life.
Our Services
Therapy for Kids
All NDIS Participants develop differently and sometimes, an NDIS Participants needs a little help to find their feet. Put the right support in place and everyone benefits, because disability or developmental delays affect the whole family.
Our specialist therapists at Base Disability work together to assess and deliver the therapy NDIS Participants require and provide the support that families need. We work flexibly and can come to your home, your NDIS Participants’s school or just about anywhere you need us.
Our aim is to provide your family with as much or as little support as you need. More at critical developmental stages or through big transitions, such as starting school, and less as your NDIS Participants and family find your feet.
