NDIS Support Sunshine Coast
Warm, person-centred National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) lifestyle support for eligible participants across Peregian Springs, Noosa, Coolum and the Sunshine Coast.
Personalised NDIS Support, Not A One-Size Plan
Ellie Nourish & Care provides warm, one-to-one lifestyle support for eligible NDIS participants and families. Before support starts, Ellie confirms how your funding is managed and which supports you would like — so the service, support item and agreed rate are clear from the beginning.
Ellie currently operates as an independent unregistered provider. That means Ellie can support self-managed and plan-managed participants, but cannot provide supports paid from an NDIA-managed budget unless or until appropriately registered.
NDIS Funding & Payment Options
How your National Disability Insurance Scheme plan is managed affects who can deliver support and how invoices are paid. Ellie will talk this through with you — or your plan manager or support coordinator — before anything begins.
Self-managed
You or your representative manage NDIS funding and pay providers directly. Self-managed participants can usually choose registered or unregistered providers.
Plan-managed
Your plan manager handles invoices and records. Participants can often choose registered or unregistered providers, following applicable NDIS pricing rules.
NDIA-managed
The NDIA pays providers directly. NDIA-managed funding generally requires a registered NDIS provider for those supports.
Pricing is agreed before services commence and depends on the support actually delivered, your funding arrangement and applicable NDIS pricing rules. Ellie refers to the current NDIS Pricing Arrangements rather than publishing a single hourly rate for every service.
NDIS Support Services
Support is tailored to your goals. The NDIS support item used for invoicing depends on the support actually provided — for example, household tasks and assistance with self-care are separate items and should not be swapped simply to use a higher price.
Lifestyle Support
A whole-person approach connecting home routines, community, meals and wellbeing.
Daily Living Support
Practical help with mornings, household tasks, personal care and everyday structure.
Community Access Support
Outings, appointments, shopping and social connection at a pace that feels right.
Meal Preparation Support
Planning, shopping and kitchen confidence — building capability, not taking over.
Wellbeing Support
Calm routines and healthy habits that support confidence and everyday balance.
Independence Building
Gradual skill development so you can do more for yourself over time.
Overnight Support
Reassurance and overnight assistance when this is part of your agreed plan.
Children & Young People
Age-appropriate support for school-age children and young people, with families.
