Huntingdale sits in the City of Monash, about 16 km from the CBD. Huntingdale station is the local stop, which helps if you or a carer travel by train. We ask about the practical things before the first visit: stairs, parking, a lift, a key safe, a dog, or a driveway that is hard to turn into.
Our team covers Huntingdale as part of the Melbourne's east run. That means the same small group of carers, a phone number that reaches a person, and a rate confirmed before anything starts.

Getting to your place

Check the current timetable before you rely on it. Travel is built into the booking, and we tell you what it involves before the first visit.
Parking, steps and access change from street to street. Some blocks in Huntingdale have a long driveway and an easy front door; others have a steep path, a narrow lane or a lift. We ask, write it down, and brief the carer before the first visit.

Your address, the supports you want, and the days that matter. A brief from a hospital, an NDIS plan or a family member helps, but it is not essential. A conversation is enough to start.
