Frequently asked questions
How much does transport with Like Family cost?
Transport during a booking costs $1.00 per kilometre. You do not need to cover a Social Carer's transport to and from a booking.
Can I use my NDIS funding to pay for transport?
If you're an NDIS participant, you may be able to flexibly use your plan’s core support funding to claim transport costs associated with travelling to and from NDIS funded community-based activities.
I'd like to join Like Family. How can I get started?
Fantastic! First, you'll need to sign up as a Member here. Once you've created an account, post an Activity (job ad) describing what type of support you're looking for, when you need support, and how often. Social Carers will then apply to your Activity. You can also search Social Carers in your local area and contact those who you think would be a good fit!
