MORE ABOUT US

OUR SERVICES

1:1 Support

At Shape Your Support our aim is to help our clients build life and social skills through transforming everyday activities into active teaching situations and opportunities for practice. Our 1:1 supports are aimed at supporting our clients in accessing the community to help them meet their goals.

We work together with families, care professionals and other supports to ensure that our clients are getting the most out of their support and making steady progress towards their individual goals.

As we specialise in male-to-male disability support we are incredibly passionate about breaking down concepts of toxic masculinity and providing positive male role models who are dedicated to forming long-lasting and meaningful relationships with those they work with.

Meet and Greets

Finding the right match is important to us! Before commencing support with a new family we always arrange for a Meet and Greet to ensure that both support worker and client have the opportunity to meet each other and see if they are the right fit. Meet and Greets are complimentary and will always be somewhere that is comfortable for our client and their family.

Check out the feedback we have received from our awesome clients!

Shape Your Support are a terrific support service. We have been using them for over a year and our son is thriving. Their holiday programs are very well organised and it’s great to see kids enjoying activities and learning at the same time. SYS’s business administration is exceptional which makes it easier for parents to engage. Thankyou SYS. Geelong really needed you.

we have been using sys for approximately 2 yrs now for my son. Joe, Reece and all the guys are so amazing with all the kids and the activities at boys club on a Saturday as well as holiday programs are very impressive. nothing is to much effort for these guys. our support worker matt who visits through the week is also a huge highlight as he helps to work on individual goals and tasks. highly recommend sys! 😍

I can't believe how much Hayden has grown and his behaviour has improved since starting with Shape.
The support is amazing Hayden lives in a house with 4 sister's and his dad is very busy with our own business.
So to see Hayden with all the big boys is beautiful and how much they care for him. I love hearing all about the holiday programs and boys time and the new friends his made. Hayden absolutely loves Reece and looks forward and counts down to chillen with him. I can't thank all the boys enough for being amazing male role models to my little dude and Teaching him great life values. we look forward to many years to come with Hayden being part of the Shape family.

These guys are fantastic! Great communication, awesome activities and every single support worker I’ve engaged with has been friendly, genuine and have a vibrant passion for their work and I could tell really care about the children. My son had an absolute blast on the holiday program! Thanks so much guys! You are all awesome!

Jessica Lee

My two boys recently joined SYS over the school holidays and I can highly recommend this wonderful program! It was so easy to set them up, all correspondence was fast and very efficient. Carers were all so wonderful and It was so lovely to see my boys so happy to go, especially my younger son who has a lot of anxiety around starting new things. I also love that they offer drop off and pick up making it possible for the boys to attend on work days. Boys can't wait for the next school holidays now..... thank you for your great work!
