How we can help
Is this different from a taxi?
Yes, significantly. Your caregiver assists you from your front door, into the car and to your destination, staying with you if you would like company, helping with mobility, and making sure you are settled safely back home afterwards.
Can you drive my car?
Yes. If you prefer your own vehicle, your caregiver can drive it provided it is comprehensively insured. Alternatively, they can use their own vehicle, which is fully insured for business use, and we can accommodate walkers and foldable wheelchairs.
Will you stay with me during the appointment?
That is entirely up to you. Many clients appreciate having a companion in the waiting room, or even during the consultation, for extra support. If you would rather have privacy, we can wait in the car or return to collect you at a set time.
Can we make multiple stops?
Yes. This is your time, so if you want to visit the doctor, stop at the chemist and grab a coffee on the way home, we are happy to accommodate your schedule.
Delivering a WOW Customer Experience
Mum has had lovely women caring for her at home. I have felt confident in their care and looking after her while I was at work. She has liked them a lot as they chatted with her and did some washing or cleaning for us. I think they’ve been wonderful.

How can I ever thank your company enough. A last minute trip to Melbourne, Nurse next door came to our rescue and were able to accommodate for our son, at the last minute (my fault). I have never used an agency before for my son A seamless, caring and professional service. Nothing was ever too hard. From the initial phone call, through to the accounts, it was so easy and faultless. Our nurse was so caring and professional, she made my son happy and safe. Thank you!! Our trip would have been a nightmare without you.

Fabulous company that I cannot recommend highly enough. I have used them both in WA and Victoria for NDIS care and the standard across both has been the same.
Brayden Hulett
Each carer that Nurse Next Door sent to support my mum was excellent. Professional, personable and a great cook! I felt she was safe in their care.
Jane Davies
Nurse next door have been so easy to deal with from the first phone call when we were in desperate need and have continued to provide the same standard of care months on. The carer provided is the perfect match for my Dad and is always interested in listening to what dad has to say, she is so helpful and caring in all aspects. I can also say that about any temporary replacement carers that have been used as well. There were a few hiccups with our home care provided and Nurse next door dealt with all that as well. I would highly recommend NND to anyone needing care for the elderly loved ones.
