About this service

NDIS-approved Supported Independent Living, delivered locally

Gaia Care is a registered NDIS Supported Independent Living (SIL) provider for participants in Brisbane Northside and Moreton Bay. Our experienced SIL workers help you live as independently as possible in your own home or a shared home — with support available around the clock, including overnight.

We pair high-quality SIL support with affordable, transparent pricing aligned with the NDIS Price Guide.

What's included in our SIL support

SIL is designed for NDIS participants with higher support needs who require help most of the day, every day. Our SIL workers can assist with:

  • Cooking, cleaning, laundry and household management.
  • Personal care — showering, dressing, toileting and grooming.
  • Medication assistance and health monitoring.
  • Building daily living and life skills.
  • Active and sleepover overnight support.
  • Behavioural support, emotional regulation and positive routines.
  • Community access, social participation and transport.

Living independently, with support that adapts

SIL isn't about doing things for you — it's about doing things with you, then stepping back as your confidence and skills grow. Whether you share a home with peers or live in your own residence, your support plan is built around your goals, your routines and your right to make decisions about your own life.

Who SIL suits

SIL is best suited to people with disabilities who need support with daily living throughout the day, seven days a week, including overnight. If you're not sure whether SIL is the right fit, speak with your support coordinator or call our team for a no-obligation discussion.

Frequently asked questions

Answers about Supported Independent Living (SIL) — Brisbane Northside

What is Supported Independent Living (SIL)?

SIL is NDIS-funded support that helps you live as independently as possible in a shared or individual home. It covers daily tasks like cooking, cleaning, personal care, medication and supervision — usually 24/7.

Who qualifies for SIL funding?

SIL is generally funded for participants with higher support needs who require help most of the day, every day, including overnight. Your NDIS plan must include SIL funding under Core Supports — Assistance with Daily Life.

Does SIL pay my rent or groceries?

No. SIL funding pays for the support workers in the home — not rent, board, food or utilities. Those everyday living costs are paid from your own income or, if eligible, Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) funding.

Where do you provide SIL in Brisbane?

Gaia Care delivers SIL across Brisbane Northside and the Moreton Bay region, including Caboolture, North Lakes, Kallangur, Narangba, Deception Bay, Redcliffe, Burpengary and Bribie Island.
