NDIS support in
South-East Melbourne
Matched support for adults with psychosocial disability and autism across Dandenong, Casey and Cardinia — with Hindi and Punjabi-speaking workers where available, and honest answers about availability in your suburb.
Honest about distance
We’re based in Ringwood, so the south-east is further from home base than Knox or Maroondah. We still support participants here — but we only agree to support when we have a matched worker who can reliably reach you. We’d rather say “not yet” than send a different stranger every week.
The south-east is one of Melbourne’s most culturally diverse regions. The City of Casey has one of Victoria’s largest Punjabi-speaking communities (2021 Census), with many Hindi and Punjabi-speaking families in suburbs such as Cranbourne and Dandenong. Our Hindi and Punjabi-speaking support and culturally responsive matching are often why families here contact us.

Which south-east suburbs do you cover?
Dandenong, Noble Park, Springvale, Keysborough, Hallam, Narre Warren, Berwick, Hampton Park, Cranbourne, Clyde, Officer and Pakenham, across Greater Dandenong, Casey and Cardinia.
Can you support appointments at Dandenong or Casey Hospital?
Yes. We plan supported trips to GP, specialist and hospital appointments, including Dandenong Hospital and Casey Hospital, with wait-with support when it helps.
Do you have Hindi or Punjabi-speaking workers in the south-east?
Yes, where available. Casey has one of Victoria’s largest Punjabi-speaking communities, and our Hindi and Punjabi-speaking support is often why families here contact us. We confirm a language-matched worker before support is agreed.
How quickly can support start in the south-east?
We confirm the next step within 2 business hours. Support starts once we’ve confirmed a matched worker who can reliably reach you — often within one to two weeks of your plan details being ready. If we can’t staff it well, we tell you straight away.
We only say yes in the south-east when we have the right worker for you. If we don’t yet, we’ll tell you straight away — and help you find someone who does.
