Our Family Respite is looking for an enthusiastic and reliable Disability Support Worker to join a small, consistent team supporting an 18-year-old young man on the Central Coast.

This is a rewarding 1:1 support role focused on building independence, daily living skills and community participation.

About the Participant

He is a fun, energetic young man who lives independently. He likes getting out of the house, technology, bikes, shopping, going for drives, fitness activities, community outings and working towards greater independence. He responds best to support workers who are calm, easy-going, engaging and able to build genuine rapport while maintaining clear expectations and routine.

What a Typical Shift Looks Like
Supporting daily living and independent living skills
Assisting with meal planning, shopping and simple cooking
Encouraging household tasks such as cleaning, laundry and organisation
Supporting community access and social participation
Walking, bike rides, exercise or other recreational activities
Providing structure, motivation and positive role modelling
Monitoring and documenting support outcomes

No personal care is required.

Can build rapport while maintaining professional boundaries
Is reliable, organised and consistent
Is physically capable of participating in community-based activities
Has a current driver's licence and reliable vehicle
