Two mornings a week, on your terms, around school pickup.
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. Scale at your own pace
You control the income progression, and the parenting routine stays intact.
2. Every hour counts
Funded rates mean the hours you can work pay properly — $60.10–$73.58 gross billing.
3. Work when you have cover
School hours, or days you've got childcare sorted.
4. Invoice directly through plan managers
Predictable payments rather than waiting on a wage cycle.
5. Real numbers, honestly
Actual invoices and cost breakdowns so you know what it actually costs to run.
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.
