NDIS Household Tasks Support in Melbourne’s South-East, Darwin and the NT
Practical Support for a Clean, Safe, and Comfortable Home
A clean, well-maintained home is crucial for maintaining safety, promoting health, and fostering peace of mind. But for many NDIS participants, physical limitations, mental health conditions, or cognitive disabilities can make household chores difficult or unsafe.
That’s where Your Life Your Choice Care Services comes in.
We provide practical, respectful help with day-to-day domestic duties, not just to keep your space tidy but to empower you to live more independently in a home that supports your well-being.
Whether you live alone, with family, or in shared accommodation, our support workers are here to help with the tasks you can’t do and support you to take on the ones you can.
