There's no work here. So make the work — for the people who already know you.

If that's you, here it is straight: what the work actually involves, what it pays, what it costs to set up, and how to start — from someone running the same business, part-time, in regional Tasmania.

1. Make the job instead of looking for one

Small towns have a genuine shortage of reliable local support workers.

2. Keep the money in town

Local people stay in their own homes instead of waiting on a fly-in agency.

3. Minimal travel, better income

Clients within a fifteen-minute radius, at funded rates of $60.10–$73.58 an hour.

4. No shopfront, no staff

A car, checks, insurance and an ABN.

5. Tested here

Built in regional Tasmania — $47,060 in six months, working part-time.


Where to go next

Being straight with you. The hourly figures on this page are the billing rates from the official NDIS Pricing Schedule — the most that can be charged for that support. They're gross revenue, not take-home. Insurance, tax, super, travel and your own time all come out of it. And the income examples are Cathy's real numbers, not a promise about yours.

The free training is below — it's the honest version of how this works, in plain language, with nothing to buy at the end.
