Our Beginnings

image391

Lavender House was established by Michael and his wife Simone as they identified a need for ethical, organic care for individuals with special needs on the Sunshine Coast. After many months of research, they committed to opening their respite in an apartment at Golden Beach. Access to the beach, cycle paths, parks, shops and local medical centres ensures this location suits all individual needs.


Our Ethos

At Lavender House we believe in quality care, tailored to individual needs. This is achieved through regular discussions between Lavender House staff and the guest family or carers to manage individual goals and achieve their potential through independence and inclusion. Lavender House offers a maximum ratio of one carer to two guests in respite care in our Sunshine Coast premises. 

Who We Are

Lavender House is a respite care service for individuals with special needs who rely on daily support to help them reach their goals due to their disability. Lavender House offers families and carers the rare opportunity to have a break from their important and demanding role of caring for an individual, while knowing that the person they care for is with a skilled, experienced and qualified staff member with whom they have a familiar relationship.
