We provide a range of services including everyday companionship, domestic assistance, personal care, meal preparation, medication reminders, and transport to appointments, shopping and social outings.

Live-in care offers a choice that many families don't realise exists – personalised support in the comfort of your own home, as an alternative to residential aged care.​

With a dedicated caregiver living with you, you can enjoy: ​

✨ The familiarity of your own space ​
✨ One-on-one, personalised support ​
✨ Your daily routines and personal freedoms ​
✨ Flexibility that adapts to your needs​

Wondering if live-in care could be right for you or your loved one? ​

What does ISO 9001:2015 certification actually mean in home care?​

​It means independent auditors regularly examine our processes – from recruitment and training to incident response and continuous improvement. Everything is verified against global standards, not just documented internally.​

​As the aged care sector evolves, this level of external validation helps registered providers make informed decisions about care partnerships.​

Meet Valmai - our January calendar star! 🌟​

At 86, Valmai has been bringing her community together for 70 years as a CWA member, hosting morning teas, packing care bags for domestic violence survivors, and baking up a storm.​

Despite gradually losing her central vision over 30 years, Valmai still cooks from memory and feel (with a little help from her Dovida carers Judy and Donna).​

Her famous Ginger Spice Slice opens our 2026 calendar.

Over December, many families are spending more time together than usual. Sometimes, those extra moments reveal changes we hadn't noticed before. ​

If you've observed that daily tasks seem a bit harder for your parents, or routines have shifted, you're not alone. Understanding when a little extra support might help is about enhancing independence, not diminishing it: https://dovida.com.au/news/understand-and-act-on-the-signs-this-holiday-season/
