Assistance with Daily Life is one of the most used NDIS supports. It covers the practical, everyday help that makes independent living possible, delivered in a way that respects your dignity and choices.
Personal activities
- Showering, dressing and grooming.
- Meal preparation and support to eat well.
- Medication prompts and steady daily routines.
- Building the skills to do more of these tasks yourself.
Household tasks
- Cleaning, laundry and keeping the home tidy.
- Meal planning and cooking.
- Gardening and basic yard upkeep.
- Keeping your home safe and comfortable.
The goal is independence, not dependence
Good daily living support is not about doing everything for you. The best workers do things with you, building your confidence and skills so you rely on funded support less over time. That is exactly what the NDIS is designed to encourage.
How it fits your plan
Most daily living support is funded through your Core budget, which is flexible. If a goal is about building a specific skill, some support may sit under Capacity Building instead. A good provider helps you use the right funding for the right support.
Consistency counts. Familiar workers who know your routines and preferences make daily support feel less like a service and more like a help you can rely on.
