Experienced Female Disability Support Worker – NDIS
Spirit Care | South-West Sydney
Part-Time | Immediate Start | Ongoing Shifts Available
We're looking for experienced support workers - not just someone to fill a shift.
Spirit Care is looking for an experienced Female Disability Support Worker to join our growing team across South-West Sydney.
We support participants with a diverse range of needs across community access, in-home support, day programs and higher-support environments.
We are looking for someone who is confident, reliable and genuinely knows how to engage with participants, take initiative and deliver high-quality person-centred support.
This role would suit an experienced Disability Support Worker who can walk into a shift, understand the participant's needs and support plan, build rapport and actively contribute to a meaningful day — without needing to be constantly directed.
Due to the personal care requirements, privacy, dignity and expressed preferences of the female participants supported in this role, being female is considered an inherent requirement of the position.
What you'll be doing
You will provide direct support to female NDIS participants and may work across our day program, community and in-home services.
Your responsibilities will include:
Providing active, person-centred disability support
Building genuine rapport and maintaining professional boundaries
Supporting participants with community access and social participation
Encouraging independence, choice and achievement of NDIS goals
Planning and facilitating meaningful activities rather than providing passive supervision
Supporting personal care,



hygiene and daily living activities where required
Confidently supporting participants with behaviours of concern
Following Behaviour Support Plans, risk assessments and participant support plans
Recognising changes in behaviour, presentation, health or wellbeing and escalating concerns appropriately
Responding calmly and professionally to incidents and challenging situations
Completing clear, accurate and meaningful shift notes
Completing incident reports promptly when required
Communicating effectively with Team Leaders and management
Maintaining participant dignity, privacy, safety and choice at all times
The person we're looking for
Previous disability support experience is essential.
We're particularly interested in applicants who have experience with complex needs, behaviours of concern, autism, psychosocial disability, intellectual disability, personal care or high-support participants.
You should be someone who:
Is confident and experienced in disability support
Is warm and engaging while maintaining professional boundaries
Takes initiative and doesn't wait to be told what to do throughout a shift
Can keep participants meaningfully engaged
Remains calm during challenging behaviours or unexpected situations
Understands professional boundaries and appropriate escalation
Is reliable and takes punctuality seriously
Communicates well with participants,



families and colleagues
Can follow support plans and risk-management strategies
Understands the importance of accurate NDIS documentation
Is comfortable receiving feedback and working within an accountable team setting
Essential requirements
Applicants must have, or be willing and eligible to obtain where applicable:
Relevant experience working within disability support
NDIS Worker Screening Check
Working With Children Check
First Aid and CPR
NDIS Worker Orientation Module
Current Australian driver's licence
Reliable and comprehensively insured vehicle
Full Australian working rights
Ability to undertake personal care duties
Availability for a mixture of weekday and/or weekend shifts
A Certificate III or IV in Individual Support, Disability, Community Services or similar qualification will be highly regarded.
Why join Spirit Care?
Spirit Care is growing, and we're investing heavily in strengthening our frontline leadership and the quality of support we provide.
You'll be joining a team with dedicated operational leadership, a Team Leader and management support behind you.
We want our Support Workers to feel supported, but we also expect a high standard of professionalism, accountability and participant engagement.
For the right person, there will be opportunities for regular ongoing shifts, increased hours and progression within the organisation as we continue to grow.
Most importantly, we're looking for people who want to do more than simply complete a shift.
We want Support Workers who genuinely care about creating good days, building independence and achieving meaningful outcomes for the people we support.
