Sometimes it’s the little things that start to feel harder.

The lawns.
The edges.
The garden that once brought joy.

Our local After-Care team supports older residents across the Mornington Peninsula with practical home assistance — including gardening — so they can stay living safely and confidently in the homes they love.

This isn’t a big, corporate service.
It’s real, local people showing up consistently and building genuine relationships.

If you’ve started noticing your loved one isn’t quite managing everything outside the house anymore, that’s often where the conversation begins.

We’re here when you’re ready to talk it through.

Sometimes the hardest part isn’t finding the right support — it’s starting the conversation.

When a parent says “I’m fine,” it’s often less about the services and more about what those words mean: independence, identity, pride and control.

At After-Care, we help families introduce support in ways that feel safe, respectful and on their terms — starting with the things that matter most, like transport or a bit of extra help around the house.

💛 Practical support doesn’t take independence away — it protects it.

If you’re unsure how to start the conversation or what support might look like, let’s talk about approaches that feel comfortable for everyone.

We’re excited to share that After‑Care will be attending the West Gippsland Community Disability Expo on February 6th.

We’ll be showcasing Shamac Lodge — our purpose-designed short-term respite accommodation — and chatting with West Gippsland NDIS Plan Coordinators about out-of-region respite options for clients who may benefit from a change of scenery, coastal surroundings, and tailored support.

If you work with participants who could use accessible short stays, supported holidays, or planned respite away from home, come and have a conversation with our team. We’d love to talk through how Shamac Lodge can fit into participant plans and support wellbeing through meaningful breaks.

Big thanks to Help At Hand Support for bringing the community together — we’re looking forward to connecting with local providers, coordinators, support workers and families on the day.

Come say hello 👋

We had a great session with the wonderful members of the Paynesville RSL and Paynesville Men’s Shed last week, chatting through the upcoming Support at Home changes and what they mean for older Australians.

It was great to share what we’ve learned in the first couple of months and to have open conversations about the challenges (and opportunities) ahead as we move toward 2026. Thanks for such a warm welcome and some really thoughtful questions — we loved connecting with the local community.
