Disability Support Workers Central Coast & Wollongong
Our VISION
They say it takes a village to raise a child, but we believe that real growth and happiness come when you’re surrounded by people who share your values and genuinely care. That’s when you truly thrive. That’s when you find your Tribe.
Our mission
We warmly welcome individuals with disabilities into our Tribe, offering care, support, and respect every step of the way. Our mission is to deliver the highest quality, person-centred support that’s built on trust, open communication, and flexibility. We’re here to help you form meaningful relationships and feel truly supported.
OUR Purpose
Our earliest ancestors did not survive alone, they banded together to survive and support each other. Our purpose is to do the same, build a Tribe that supports our community. Through our own personal experiences as an NDIS participant and provider of high-quality disability support, we set up Tribe to bring the best of our experiences to each family we work with to ensure no one is alone and everyone has a Tribe of their own.
Our Story
Tribe Founders, Jaypee and Victoria and their three kids are a Central Coast local family with a passion for providing quality disability support. Driven and inspired by their own experiences of care support for their eldest son Rylan with level 3 ASD, Jaypee and Victoria set up Tribe to build a supportive community that places the individual’s needs above all else.
When Rylan was first approved by NDIS, Victoria was immediately excited at the prospect of offering Rylan support workers who could participate in activities he loved outside along with helping him with personal care at home in order to provide Rylan with some independence. However, it quickly became clear that finding good support workers was a significant challenge. Some carers were unreliable, or worse, managed to build trust with Rylan to then not show up and disappoint the whole family.
Victoria believes that as a young adult Rylan should be able to safely participate and interact within the community to do the activities that make him happy. The key to this was finding the right, like-minded people to form Rylan’s tribe. People who show up, who care, and who place Rylan’s needs, safety, and happiness above all. Driven by this purpose and a sense of responsibility to those living with disabilities and their families, Jaypee and Victoria combine their experience in understanding the NDIS and having reliable support workers and their passion to support the community to build Tribe, a tribe for all who need one.
