Practical home care in Templestowe, from a small Melbourne team you get to know. It is about 17 km from the CBD, in the City of Manningham.
Care in Templestowe, close to home
Templestowe is green and hilly, with large blocks, the Ruffey Lake trail and the Yarra parklands on its edge. The shopping centres at Doncaster and Templestowe Lower are a short drive away.

Templestowe sits in the City of Manningham, about 17 km from the CBD. We plan the trip door to door, including where to park and the walk to your door. 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 Templestowe 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.

Pick one support or build a week from a few. The plan can change as life does.
Getting to your place
Templestowe is about 17 km from the CBD, in the Manningham local government area. We plan the trip door to door, including where to park and the walk to your door. 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 Templestowe 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.
What we need from you
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.
Paying for care in Templestowe
Three ways people usually fund support here.
- Private. You pay us directly, at the rate we agree before the first visit.
- NDIS. For self-managed and plan-managed participants, with invoices that match your plan.
