Experts in providing you with respite care

Looking for childcare in the community is a challenging task. Limited availability combined with a parent’s natural desire to secure the best possible care for their child makes it difficult at the best of times. For parents with children who have special needs the search for quality care is even more complicated. As these families do not have access to a full range of experienced, dedicated providers for respite care.

Welcome to Specialised Care Services. We are an expert provider of care workers, learning support educators, mothers help, and overnight respite care for children with special needs. We pride ourselves on upholding a trusted, reliable, service that is held in high regard
