Home Care in Prestons and Leppington
Also known as domiciliary care, our home care services ensure that your loved one’s needs are met while they’re still able to enjoy their own home as much as possible. Combining highly trained professionals with our compassionate approach to care can ensure peace of mind for you, knowing that family members are taken care of.
What those needs are can change from client to client, as we know well. We have a bespoke approach that can lend assistance with a range of basic, personal, safety, grooming, and even emotional needs with companionship and conversation. Arrange a consultation to learn more about our home care options.
Respite Care in Prestons and Leppington
We have home care services that can take care of the needs of your loved one, 24/7. However, for those who act as the primary caregiver, they may not need as much. They may simply need a few hours a week or an hour a day to take care of their own responsibilities or even to take a break. Our respite care services are here to lend that help, aware of how much time and dedication it takes to fulfil your role.
As the primary caregiver, you dictate the needs and schedule that our care team will work to follow, including the preferences and individual challenges they face, ensuring consistency in care as best as possible.

The Albanese Labor Government has introduced a landmark Aged Care Bill, marking a once-in-a-generation reform to prioritise the rights, safety and dignity of older Australians.
From 1 July 2025, the new Aged Care Act will bring significant changes, including:
-Tougher regulatory standards to ensure higher
accountability
-Strengthened Aged Care Quality Standards for improved
care delivery
-A dedicated Statement of Rights for older Australians
-A $4.3 billion Support at Home program to help seniors live independently at home for longer

Happy Friday HC fam!
It’s been a busy and productive week here at Home Caring with only forty days till the end of the year we are full steam ahead! One highlight was the team-building and networking session with our amazing Home Caring Bankstown team. The workshop was a huge success bringing everyone together to learn, grow and strengthen our skills.
These sessions are such a valuable part of what we do as they foster connection, build efficiency and empower us to deliver the best care to our clients. As we all know being a support worker can sometimes feel isolating but moments like these remind us of the incredible community we’re all a part of.
Let’s all carry that energy into the weekend—it’s going to be a hot one, so stay cool and take care! 🩵

Happy Sunday HC fam! Recently our Home Caring Vermont team had the privilege of attending the 20th anniversary celebration of Hope City Mission, a vital organisation making a profound difference in our community. As proud sponsors we deeply admire their unwavering dedication to providing food relief, support and hope to those in need. Hope City Mission’s initiatives extend far and wide from their compassionate crisis support programs to sustainable efforts like planting seedlings, whose produce directly benefits people facing hardship. It’s a joy to stand beside them in their mission to uplift lives and foster resilience.
Our sponsorship reflects Home Caring’s core value of giving without expecting anything in return. We’re thrilled to have contributed to initiatives like installing a sprinkler system to nurture their community garden, where fresh produce is grown for those living in crisis. Supporting Hope City Mission means investing in kindness, growth and care and we couldn’t be prouder to play a part in their incredible journey. Here’s to creating positive change together! 🩵
