Nicki Cohen: Disability Support Worker

25/09/2025

I finished up with a client this week as he is moving into Supported Independent Living outside of Adelaide.
I am so proud of all the progress he has made over the years. My client's lovely family gifted me these gorgeous flowers and he made this wonderful wooden box for me to say thank you and goodbye.
I feel so incredibly lucky to work with the wonderful families I support each week.
It's so rewarding knowing I have had a part in my client moving on and into his own house.

I have some availability for new clients, please reach out if you know of anyone looking. 😊

I have worked with these two Mums children since they have left school. We have had lots of amazing achievements along the way. Mainly with swimming, both of these people get such enjoyment from being in the water. I have loved working with them the past few years. Watching them grow into the, kind, gentle adults they are now. We have had our challenges along the way, but have overcome everything.

Are you looking for affordable respite knowing your child is in safe hands?
I can help, whether it be in the comfort of your child's home or alternatively I am able to run out of my home. A weekend away or a few days during the week could be just what you and your child need to recharge. I understand how hard it can be leaving your child with someone else. That's why I can assure you that I will do my absolute best to make sure your child feels safe and that their needs are met, knowing their parent/caregiver is only a phonecall away.
I also offer a range of services during the day or night. They include personal care, Walking, hiking, cooking, socialising, swimming, arts and craft, assisting clients in learning to use public transport. Accompany clients to shows, sports events, markets, shopping, movies and other community events.

I have worked with Brandon since he left school. He has come such a long way, he now exercises daily and works really hard each session even when you can see he's exhausted he doesn't give up. Seeing the smile on this young man's face when he reaches his target and then when he tells his Mum when she picks him up makes my day. We would go swimming, for walks along the beach and at parks and do our own gym sessions. Our treat days would include movies, bowling and community events such as the Adelaide Show. Brandon's family have been so wonderful to me over the years, trusting me to help Brandon achieve his goals. I have built up a great relationship with his Mum, especially after a traumatic event when I had to attend to Brandon in an emergency. Being able to have a trusting relationship with my client's families is so important to me because they entrust me with their son or daughter's life and all any parent wants for their child is the best care possible.
